Summary: | Lenski distinguished between a doctrinally orthodox and a devotional religious orientation. An attempt is made to link these to four religious “approaches” uncovered by a recently developed instrument. Some psycho-social correlates of these are presented, along with a variety of data relating to religious values, attitudes and behavior. “Apostolic” Catholics seem to be most devotional, while those typed “Moralistic” are more doctrinally orthodox. “Intellectual” Catholics are less easily described. |
