520 |a Self-assigned religious affiliation has been linked to different extents with other aspects of religiosity in Christians, but this correlation has not previously been studied for Buddhists. In this study, relevant attitudes were examined through focus groups conducted with 75 heritage- and convert-raised Buddhist teenagers at seven British locations. Issues investigated included identity, spirituality, congregational participation, hopes, worries, fears, parents, friends, substance use, and right and wrong. Similarities between the two groups did not particularly show Buddhist content. Contrasts included values concerning life after death, Buddhist identifiers, place of congregation, hopes, parental formality, spiritual teachers, femininity, meditation and the Sangha, alcohol and marijuana. The recommendations arising from this study are that social policy-makers working with religious identifiers would benefit from having awareness of the complex dynamic of religious styles in respect of Buddhism, shown in this research, and that future research on Buddhist identity and values should be clearly qualified by considerations of religious style.
