GARCIA-ALANDETE, Joaquín e BERNABE VALERO, Gloria. Religious orientation and psychological well-being among Spanish undergraduates. Acción psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.10, n.1, pp.135-148. ISSN 2255-1271. https://dx.doi.org/10.5944/ap.10.1.7040.
This paper analyzes the relationship between intrinsic/extrinsic/quest religious orientation and psychological well-being in a sample of 180 Spanish undergraduates, 138 women (76.7%) and 42 men (23.3%), aged 18-55, M = 22.91, sD = 6.71. Spanish adaptations of the Batson and Ventis´ Religious Orientation Scaleand the Ryff´s psychological Well-Being Scales were used to this aim. The results of a multiple regression analysis showed (1) a positive relationship between the intrinsic orientation and the psychological well-being measures except for Autonomy, (2) a negative relationship between the extrinsic orientation and Autonomy, and (3) a negative relationship between the quest orientation, Self-acceptance and Purpose in life. The results are discussed in the light of previous researches.
