| Summary: | From a methodological perspective, it should be emphasized that perception of such a complex phenomenon as religiosity requires establishing a criterion which will combine individual manifestations of religious practice into dimensions fulfilling the requirements of semantic and structural coherence. The multi-dimensional concept is supposed to describe religiosity by endowing it with a certain structure established by theoretical constructs which allow us to cognitively present and ‘organize’ the phenomenon of religiosity, while we are aware that religiosity of particular individuals may not be subject to coherence in terms of dimensions adopted by a researcher. Therefore, being aware of methodological determinants, mostly psychological contexts, contemporary research employs the description of religiosity as a multidimensional phenomenon or establishes its specific typologies, depending on the assumed objectives. Frequently, a functional paradigm is invoked, according to which religiosity is presented in terms of functions defined in advance. Such approach leads in consequence to identification of functional equivalents of religion with its rudimentary forms. Religiosity as an internalized aspect of religion undergoes the same changes as the latter. Therefore, contemporary research into religiosity observes often contradictory phenomena such as its turning to fundamentalism on one hand, but - to individualization, privatization or secularization, on the other. |
