The Implicit Nature of Intrinsic Religious Pursuit

Two experiments were conducted to demonstrate the implicit (nonconscious) activation and operation of goals related to religious pursuit. Participants focused on either religious successes or religious shortcomings. Moskowitz (2001, 2002) argued that focusing on shortcomings in a goal-relevant domai...

520 |a Two experiments were conducted to demonstrate the implicit (nonconscious) activation and operation of goals related to religious pursuit. Participants focused on either religious successes or religious shortcomings. Moskowitz (2001, 2002) argued that focusing on shortcomings in a goal-relevant domain (in this case, religion) creates a sense of incompleteness that, in turn, activates cognitive processes that seek to compensate for the incompleteness. In Experiment 1, the activation of compensatory processes slowed participants' response times to goal-relevant information on a color-identification task. In Experiment 2, the operation of compensatory processes was manifested when participants spent more time reading a subsequent passage with religious content. The results have implications for the motivational nature of intrinsic religious pursuit.
