| Summary: | This article builds on an earlier effort to review exhaustively the personality and clinical assessment literature about controversial new religions, both in the United States and abroad. The present review covers considerable research on the Rajneesh movement in the United States, the Hare Krishna movement in the United States and Australia, as well as a group from the Jesus Movement. The conclusions drawn in the earlier review-that most experiences in the groups were generally positive-are strengthened by including this later research. Implications of this conclusion are discussed. |
