Description
Summary:College students in a South-Korean University responded to measures of Christian fundamentalism and sociopolitical perspectives related to nationalism, internationalism, patriotism, respect for civil liberties, and tolerance of dissent. Religious diversity in the sample permitted subgroup comparisons between Protestants, Catholics, Buddhists, and Atheists on all measures. These subgroups differed significantly only on Christian fundamentalism, with Protestants scoring significantly higher than all other subgroups on the fundamentalism measure. Although most subgroup correlations were small, the Protestant subgroup tended to have stronger correlations between Christian fundamentalism and the sociopolitical variables than the other subgroups.
