Attitudes toward Joining Authoritarian Organizations and Sectarian Churches
Individuals affected by a rapidly changing or disorganized society are constrained to adapt in some manner. Two modes of adaptation are indicated by tendencies toward joining authoritarian organizations and sectarian churches. The first is an attempt to regain and preserve an interaction pattern perceived as threatened; the second represents retreat from a society which is perceived to be disorderly and threatening. If alienation is on the rise, …

Social Integration of Businessmen in Varied Size Communities
This paper discusses tests on three sets of hypotheses dealing with the relationship between selected aspects of the social integration of businessmen and community size. This testing shows that smaller community size is associated with: (1) involvement in the network of voluntary associations in the community-at-large, (2) interest in the opinions of members of these associations and of the community-at-large, (3) feelings of alienation, which a…

The American Business Creed and Denominational Identification
Theories supporting the integrative role of religion have been questioned mainly on the ground that in complex and multi-religious societies, doctrinal differences between denominations result in differences in social behavior, thus contributing to a lack of integration. The present data indicate that, at least in reference to American businessmen and the American business creed, acceptance of the differences among denominations are not determine…

Overt Conformity to Church Teaching as a Function of Religious Belief and Group Participation
Data collected from members of a small-town Mormon church have been used to test hypotheses dealing with possible functions of the church in modern society. This testing suggested that overt conformity to church teaching is influenced cumulatively by church participation and religious belief, and independently by church participation. It is spectulated that this independent function of church participation is determined by the mutual dependence b…
Orthodoxy, Church Participation, and Authoritarianism
Data from a sample of 300 church members are analyzed to provide indirect evidence on the relationship between religiosity and ethnic distance, specifically on correlations between religious orthodoxy and church participation with authoritarianism viewed as an intervening variable. Other personality variables and formal education are used as controls by means of partial correlation analysis. Findings suggest (1) that authoritarian and prejudiced …
Religiosity, Education, and Ethnic Distance
Two sets of hypotheses are tested. The first deals with the relationship of religiosity and education to ethnic distance, when personality variables are controlled. It is found that orthodoxy and extrinsic belief are not related to ethnic distance; church participation and formal education are negatively related. The second set of hypotheses examines individual influence of each personality variable on ethnic distance when the remaining variables…
