    Anne-Marije de Bruin-Wassinkmaat, Jos De Kock et al.ARTICLEReligious Education2021

    Religious identity development is highly influenced by contexts. This influence is even more powerful for young people who grew up in strict religious contexts because of the prominence of orthodox beliefs and practices in everyday life. This article presents which contextual factors were influential on the religious identity development of 18 emerging adults who grew up in strict Reformed contexts in the Netherlands.

    Anne-Marije de Bruin-Wassinkmaat, Jos De Kock et al.ARTICLEIdentity2019

  • I Have Dutch Nationality, But Others Do Not See Me as a Dutchman, of Course”

    Elsbeth Visser-Vogel, Jos De Kock et al.ARTICLEJournal of Muslims in Europe2018References: 18

    This interview study examines the attitudes of orthoprax young Muslim adults in the Netherlands toward their context, by distinguishing their perceptions of society and their participation in society. In this study, we discover that orthoprax young Muslim adults oppose themselves to Dutch society and do not feel really connected to it. However, most of the time, they participate in society by having jobs, studying and having friends. We also see …

    Elsbeth Visser-Vogel, Jos De Kock et al.ARTICLEJournal of Muslims in Europe2015Cited by: 1References: 13

    This interview study examines sources for the religious exploration of orthoprax Muslim adolescents in the Netherlands. We use the term sources to emphasize that we are also interested in sources other than parents and other persons. By using our interview guidelines, we succeeded in discovering sources other than persons: for example, specific events and opinions of others in the societal context of the Netherlands. This study also gives insight…
