Conversion: Evaluation of a Step-like Process for Problem-Solving

This study of recent religious converts was made to verify empirically a theoretical model formulated to explain conversion. Using the ideas of Lofland and Stark (1965) and Toch (1965) as a point of departure, a model was formulated which suggested that conversion is a step-like, problem-solving pro...

520 |a This study of recent religious converts was made to verify empirically a theoretical model formulated to explain conversion. Using the ideas of Lofland and Stark (1965) and Toch (1965) as a point of departure, a model was formulated which suggested that conversion is a step-like, problem-solving process through which persons move, utilizing individual and religious organizational facilities, programs, and ideologies in resolving various life problems. The findings indicate that the model has very little heuristic value in explaining conversion and suggests that the models of both Toch and Lofland and Stark may suffer the same deficiency relative to isomorphism.
