Therefore, we can look a...

520 |a This chapter explores the “spiritual/religious” self-identifications in cross-cultural perspective. In addition to current self-identifications we asked how respondents remembered their environment at age 12 and combined this information with the current self-identification. Therefore, we can look at trajectories in both subsamples. Further, we explore aspects of social identity, such as sex, age , and current religious affiliation . Results indicate that participants who self-identify as “more religious” are affiliated with traditional, mostly Christian religious groups in both countries. Christian affiliates in our sample nevertheless self-identify more frequently as “equally religious and spiritual” or as “more spiritual than religious.” The majority of respondents in our sample self-identify as “more spiritual” whether they report affiliation with a religious tradition or not. In Germany, most “more spirituals” report “no religion,” while in the USA most “more spirituals” belong to a religious organization. The self-identification as “neither religious nor spiritual” in most cases is connected to non-affiliation, with the exception of a small group of Protestant s. Similarities and differences are discussed with reference to semantics in both research contexts.
