| Summary: | Seventeen potential psychological predictors of religiosity—10 of them measuring psychopathology—were first correlated with the 8-item nonsectarian Religiosity Scale devised by Haraldsson (1981); they were then entered simultaneously into a multiple regression analysis to uncover those variables that were independently related to religiosity. The only variable significantly related to religiosity after this process was mystical experience. These findings are consistent with the view that, certain skeptics notwithstanding, religiosity appears not to be related to psychopathology, at least not in this sample of psychology undergraduates. |
