Is It Possible to Discriminate the Value Patterns of Wulff's Approaches to Religion in a Polish Sample?

Abstract

Based on Schwartz's (1992) value theory, Fontaine, Luyten and Corveleyn (2000) found that the value patterns associated with Wulff's (1991, 1999) four approaches toward religion could be reduced to a combination of two theoretically meaningful value patterns: a Transcendence/Mutual Care and a Social order/Uncertainty avoidance pattern. In this study, we examined whether we could replicate these findings in a Polish sample.
