Research on religion and death perspectives has resulted in many contradictory findings. It was hypothesized that one reason for this situation stems from the treatment of both domains as unidimensional. The present study examined the pattern of relationships among multidimensional measures of religion and death outlooks. The possible involvement of powerlessness as a confounding factor was also evaluated. Utilizing religious respondents four forms of personal religion and nine death perspectives were found to be complexly related. These associations weakened when powerlessness was removed from the original matrix. Meaningful correlational patterns among the variables were revealed
