Summary: | Beginning with a sample of 497 Ss, multiple criteria of religiosity were applied to obtain a truly religious group of 210 Ss. Utilizing a factorially stable measure of prejudice, extreme religious-prejudiced (29 Ss) and religious-unprejudiced (32 Ss)groups were formed. Committed and Consensual religious orientations were then hypothesized on the basis of five cognitive perspectives which were operationally derived from interviews. Strong correspondence was demonstrated between prejudice and Consensual religion and between absence of prejudice and Committed faith. Many additional distinctions in social and religious outlooks were also evidenced, thus clarifying further the nature of religion-prejudice relationships. |
