520 |a This study examined the many possible motives to convert to Islam among French adolescents and adults. The theoretical framework used was the reversal theory (Apter, 2001). Eight motive factors were evidenced. Five of these factors were related to motif experiences already suggested by Lofland and Skonovd (1981): intellectual (telic), experimental (autic mastery), affectional (autic sympathy), coercive (conformist), and revivalist (paratelic). Three motives were relatively new ones: negativist (opposing my family), alloic mastery (fighting on the poor's side), and alloic sympathy (sharing possessions). Overall, the motives for converting to Islam were mainly very personal and active ones. Societal, passive motives were not found to predominate.
