| Summary: | In the light of a resurgent interest in religio-ethnic background, the usage of the concepts of identity and identification was examined. Identity was viewed both as a higher-order concept (i.e., an organizing referent) and as a lower-order concept including several specific facets (social identity, personal identity, ego identity, and self-conception), whose empirical referents with respect to religio-ethnicity were suggested. Identification was conceived of both as a process and a product, with empirical research of the latter in respect to religio-ethnicity operating on behavioral and attitudinal levels. Some implications for future research were suggested. |
