Abstract

This first analysis of the Religious Fundamentalism Scale in Iran further examined findings that conservative religious commitments have positive adjustment implications outside the West. Religious Fundamentalism in a sample of 385 Iranian university students displayed direct relationships with Muslim religiosity and spirituality and correlated positively with the Transcendence and negatively with the Symbolism Post-Critical Beliefs (PCB) factors. Religious Fundamentalism, and conservative religiosity more generally, predicted better mental health in relationship with variables related to self-regulation, narcissism, and splitting. PCB factors defined a fundamentalist attitude of Literal Affirmation that also displayed some linkages with more adaptive psychological functioning. Iranians who self-identified as “both religious and spiritual” were more conservative religiously and more adjusted psychologically than three other religious-spiritual types. Conservative religiosity did predict the maladjustment of Exploitable Dependency. These data further suggested that conservative religiosity can have largely, though not wholly, positive mental health implications outside the West.
伊朗的宗教原教旨主义:穆斯林文化背景下的宗教和心理调整
这是对伊朗宗教原教旨主义量表的首次分析,进一步检验了保守的宗教承诺对西方以外的国家具有积极的调整影响。以385名伊朗大学生为样本,宗教原教旨主义与穆斯林虔诚度和灵性有直接关系,且与超验性因素正相关,与象征主义后批判信仰(PCB)因素负相关。宗教原教旨主义和更普遍的保守宗教信仰与自我调节、自恋和分裂相关的变量有关,预示着更好的心理健康。PCB因素定义了字面肯定的原教旨主义态度,也显示出与更适应性的心理功能的一些联系。自认为“既有宗教又有精神”的伊朗人在宗教上更保守,心理上也比其他三种宗教-精神类型的人更适应。保守的宗教信仰确实预示了可剥削依赖性的失调。这些数据进一步表明,保守的宗教信仰在很大程度上(尽管不是全部)对西方以外的人的心理健康有积极的影响。
