- Abstract
- The present chapter focuses, through two sections, on cross-cultural psychological issues of religion and spirituality that are uncovered in previous reviews (Saroglou, 2003; Saroglou & Cohen, 2013) or other reviews on very specific themes, and for which important evidence has been accumulated in the last 15 years. After an introduction to the relations between religion and culture and the salience of religious differences within cultural differences, the first section examines cross-cultural research on the dimensionality of religiosity, spirituality, and fundamentalism. A second section provides an overview of recent cross-cultural research on the basic psychological dimensions of religiosity and spirituality, i.e., cognition, emotion, morality, and identity in correspondence to the 4Bs model of believing, bonding, behaving, and belonging (Saroglou, 2011).
