Gerard Saucier articulates their interface, and new insights regarding the psychology of religion and spirituality. Rather than making assumptions of cultural homogeneity that promote stereotyping, Gerard Saucier applies a distributive model of culture which assumes heterogeneity, linking the otherwise separate compartments of culture and personality. Personality variation maps cultural non-uniformity, but variation in mindset (attitudes, beliefs, values) does so more directly. Studies of isms concepts embedded in natural language demonstrate that matters of religion and spirituality make up a substantial fraction of culture-relevant mindset, and empirical evidence shows these have a large effect-size contribution to cultural differences between nations around the globe. This book will be of much interest to specialists and (post-graduate) graduate students interested in culture, personality, and religion or spirituality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Abstract   Keywords   1 Preamble   2 Definitions   3 Culture and Personality Structure   4 Mindset and Culture   5 Variants of the DMC (Distributive Model of Culture)   6 The Utility of a Distributive Model of Culture   7 Distributive Models of Ideology and Religion   8 Culture and Personality Recap   9 Ideology and Worldview from Standpoint of Culture, Personality, and a DMC   10 The First Isms Study Method   11 The Second Isms Study   12 Evidence on Spirituality without Religiousness   13 Cross-cultural Differences in a Global Survey of World Views   14 Enduring- and Evolving-order Societies, and Their Meaning and Material Regimes   15 Further Domains of Culture   16 Religion (and Spirituality) as Culture and Personality: Further Synthesis   17 The Matter of Mysticism and Morality   18 Culture, Personality, and Religion – Summarily Integrated   19 Epilogue on Future Directions   References   Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210851443031,"sku":"9789004522817","price":71.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/culture-personality-and-the-psychology-of-religion-9789004522817","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
