Religion Conceptualized as an Attachment Process: Another Deficiency Approach to the Psychology of Religion?

Pages 29-36 | Published online: 16 Nov 2009
 

Abstract

Kirkpatrick's essay is examined in terms of the adequacy of attachment theory to account for all forms and levels of religious alignment. It is concluded that the essential ambiguity of religious attachments must be recognized if they are not to be regarded merely as another form of compensation or as corresponding directly with other established attachments.
