Our findings suggest that religious service attendance was associated with lower risks of depression and anxiety among older Amdo Tibetans. This highlights the importance of considering religious and spiritual practices as potential factors in promoting mental well-being, particularly within unique cultural and ethnic contexts such as the Amdo Tibetan community.
