ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES:

This study was designed and conducted to develop and standardized Korean version of intrinsic and extrinsic religious orientation scale.

METHODS:

The sample consisted of 209 Christians living in Seoul and Kyungkido. The 26 items were collected from religious orientation scale of Allport and Ross, Feign, Hoge, and Gorsuch and McPherson. The reliability and validity were tested.

RESULTS:

The Korean version of intrinsic and extrinsic religious orientation scale of this study showed high internal consistency, test-retest reliability. The exploratory factor analysis revealed eight factors, but confirmatory factor analysis showed all items were fallen under intrinsic and extrinsic categories. The correlation between intrinsic religiosity and Spiritual well-being scale was statistically significant, but the correlation between extrinsic religiosity and Spiritual well-being scale was statistically insignificant. And intrinsic religiosity positively correlated with depression and trait-anxiety, but extrinsic religiosity showed no statistically significant correlation with depression and trait-anxiety.

CONCLUSION:

This is a preliminary study. The Korean version of intrinsic and extrinsic religious orientation scale was found to be a reliable and valid instrument for screening religious orientation. More refining of the items should be necessary.
