英文简介

目前的研究调查了威权主义和宗教之间可能存在的关系，以及这种潜在关系的可能强度。这项研究涉及四种文化环境的样本，这四种文化环境在宗教显著性和内容上存在显著差异:斯洛文尼亚(主要是天主教)、塞尔维亚(主要是东正教)、波斯尼亚-黑塞哥维那(主要是穆斯林)和美国(主要是新教徒)。如Allport(1950)所提出的，宗教性是通过宗教取向(包括内在和外在取向)来评估的，而威权主义是通过修正的Lane scale(1955)来评估的。零阶相关的结果表明，无论分析的样本是什么，威权主义与所有类型的宗教取向之间都存在很强的正相关关系。用人口统计学变量对主要研究结构进行残差并没有改变结果。只有当宗教取向的每个维度都受到其他维度影响的控制时，这种关联才会发生变化。研究结果并没有支持这一假设，即威权主义与那些外部价值取向更强的人有着更强的联系。

中文简介

The current study investigated the possible existence of a relationship between authoritarianism and religiousness and the possible strength of this potential relationship. The study involved samples from four cultural environments known to differ substantially in terms of religious salience and content: Slovenia (predominantly Catholic), Serbia (predominantly Eastern Orthodox), Bosnia and Herzegovina (predominantly Muslim), and the United States (predominantly Protestant). Religiousness was assessed by way of religious orientation (including intrinsic and extrinsic orientation) as proposed by Allport (1950), whereas authoritarianism was tapped by a modified Lane scale (1955). Results from zero-order correlations indicated a strong and positive association between authoritarianism and all types of religious orientation, regardless of the sample analyzed. Residualizing the main study constructs by demographic variables did not alter the results. The association changed only when each dimension of religious orientation was controlled for the effect of other dimensions. Results did not lend support to the hypothesis that authoritarianism is more strongly linked to those who are more extrinsically oriented.
