Comparisons of the centrality of four factors in self-identity (Spiritual, Personal/Social, Family, Identifications) were made for 226 participants according to their religious preference. A repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that religious preference was related to the relative centrality of those factors.

Abstract:
A single club model describes the collective production of both personal and social identity. Personal identity, how one perceives oneself, is formed through a process of cultural transmission. Social identity, how one is perceived by others, takes the form of collective reputation. Our model of identity-based organizations incorporates into the economics of identity insights from the economics of religion and cultural transmission. The identities that develop tend to be oppositional. Organizations devoted to more extreme identities are able to support higher levels of participation and collective action.

Abstract:
AbstractAfter the collapse of the USSR, the Tuvans, in common with all the other non- Russian populations of the former Union, went through a period of radical reaction against Soviet norms. Perceiving themselves to be buried beneath the wreckage of Soviet rule, the Tuvans began strenuously to search for values and aspirations which could form a basis for new identities. The vacuum created by the dismantling of Soviet social and cultural systems began slowly to be filled with new possibilities for identity formation – connected to language, clan, family, ethnicity, religion, nationality, gender and so on. Each of these social realms has its own meaning, and its own stimuli. This article discusses recent developments in contemporary Tuvan culture, under four interconnected headings: clan, family, ethnicity and religion. As will be seen, these in Tuva are the areas where values and cultural understandings intersect with political and economic constraints – and therefore where the conceptual and emotional attachments necessary to personal identification are formed.

Abstract:
If Purgatory involves just an immaterial soul undergoing a transformation between our death and resurrection, then, as Aquinas recognized, it won't be us in Purgatory. Drawing upon Parfit's ideas about identity not being what matters to us, we explore whether the soul's experience of Purgatory could still be beneficial to it as well as the deceased human who didn't experience the purging yet would possess the purged soul upon resurrection. We also investigate an alternative non-Thomistic hylomorphic account of Purgatory in which humans would survive during the period between death and resurrection in a bodiless form with a soul as their only proper part.

Abstract:
Western philosophers are generally very unsympathetic to the notion of reincarnation, especially the idea of rebirth in another body in this world. This paper will argue that retributive rebirth as it is traditionally understood in Hindu thought involves serious problems given the ambiguousness of personal identity in the conception, difficulties which are born out in a moral tenuousness and which bring the reasonableness of the belief into question. However, though this conception of rebirth is the culturally and historically dominant version in Indian thought, it is not the sole conception. The ‘soul-making’ version I will develop and defend in this paper does not overcome the ambiguity associated with personal identity in the retributive version, but it nevertheless reasonably overrides the problems retributive rebirth encounters in such an association. And though soul-making rebirth is quite different in tone and in emphasis from the traditionally dominant retributive version, it can be found in varying degrees in certain Hindu philosophies, most vividly perhaps in Aurobindo Ghose. Moreover, this conception is not exclusive to Hinduism and is compatible even with some Christian theologies.

Abstract:
Purpose Religion and spirituality are well-researched concepts within the field of psychology and mental health yet they have rarely been researched in high-secure services within the UK. Research in mental health and prison contexts suggests benefits of religion/spirituality to coping, social support, self-worth, symptoms of depression and anxiety and behavioural infractions. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of religion/spirituality in high-secure service users’ personal recovery. Design/methodology/approach Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 13 male patients in a high-secure hospital, with primary diagnoses of mental illness (n=11) or personality disorder (n=2). Participants were from a range of religious/spiritual backgrounds and were asked about how their beliefs impact their recovery and care pathways within the hospital. Data were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Findings Three superordinate themes were identified: “religion and spirituality as providing a framework for recovery”; “religion and spirituality as offering key ingredients in the recovery process”; and “barriers to recovery through religion/spirituality”. The first two themes highlight some of the positive aspects that aid participants’ recovery. The third theme reported hindrances in participants’ religious/spiritual practices and beliefs. Each theme is discussed with reference to sub-themes and illustrative excerpts. Practical implications Religion/spirituality might support therapeutic engagement for some service users and staff could be more active in their enquiry of the value that patients place on the personal meaning of this for their life. Originality/value For the participants in this study, religion/spirituality supported the principles of recovery, in having an identity separate from illness or offender, promoting hope, agency and personal meaning.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: In God's Revelation, the structure of the covenant consists of God's promises and Israels answer to them. In the covenant God has revealed Himself personally to both individuals and his chosen people. In the theology of religion developed by Hendrik Kraemer, there are two types of religion: The (prophetic) religion based on Gods revelation and the other (naturalist) religions are based on efforts to grasp the identity of his real self with divine reality, this is called as trans-empirical self realization. What is the essence of religion based on God's self revelation? God's revelation is the only source of all knowledge about true spirituality and the salvation in Christ. The Bible as the witness of God's revelation to prophets and apostles is the criterion of all religious truth. The Bible relates the history of redemption, gives a foundation to personal faith, and is the only guidebook to the life and work of the Christian community. From this starting point I try to analyze the Biblical concept of religious truth as the standard for determining religions, and to give a real answer to Gods self revelation. KEYWORDS: covenant, revelation, faith, religion.

Abstract:
This thesis presents the results of a multi-method exploration of the effects of collective dysphoric rituals on self-identification, group affiliation, and prosocial behaviour. Findings are presented from a worldwide sample of martial artists, student participants in artificial ritual experiments, and observers and performers of Shinto firewalking festivals in Japan. The thesis tests recent predictions of the Modes of Religiosity theory in regards to the psychological processes that underpin shared dysphoric rituals and various costly signalling theories concerning the group orientated consequences of participating in extreme ritual events. The results from the studies raise questions with the broader generalisability of recent findings linking collective dysphoric rituals and inclusive self- identification and urge for a more nuanced appraisal of associations with prosocial behaviour. Furthermore, the role of subjective positive assessment of dysphoric experiences is shown to be a topic that has been unduly overlooked and preliminary evidence is provided for a potential relationship with identity fusion. Methodologically the thesis presents a series of novel artificial ritual studies that offer initial evidence in support of shared dysphoria's ability to enhance cooperation and promote positive ingroup association.

Abstract:
Au-delà de son paradoxe polysémique, l’identité est une notion parfaitement définie par les différentes sciences humaines, tandis qu’en droit ses contours demeurent beaucoup plus flous. Que recouvre la notion juridique d’identité ? Le droit qui s’y rattache peut-il être qualifié de fondamental ? L’identité n’est pas seulement un ensemble d’éléments qui permet à l’État de nous différencier les uns des autres. Les procédés étatiques d’identification que sont l’état civil et les documents d’identité se trouvent confrontés aux thématiques actuelles et notamment sécuritaires. Mais l’identité, après avoir été pendant longtemps un monopole régalien, devient de plus en plus un support de revendications. En effet, l’identité tend à s’affranchir de plus en plus du cadre imposé par l’État pour permettre à l’individu d’exprimer son individualisation. Aujourd’hui, l’identité ne permet plus uniquement de répondre à la question « qui suis-je ? », mais également à « qui je veux être ? ». La revendication identitaire s’inscrit dans une démarche personnelle de reconnaissance de ses composantes essentielles. L’identité n’est pas en crise, elle est en réalité en pleine mutation. Si elle en connaissait éventuellement une, cela serait dans le sens originel tel que le psychologue Erik Erikson l’avait théorisée, à savoir la crise d’identité liée à l’adolescence. Ainsi, l’identité serait en transition avant de connaître l’âge adulte et la pleine consécration de sa reconnaissance juridique. Le droit de l’identité est en passe d’être complété par l’émergence d’un droit à l’identité, actuellement fragmenté, qui tend à être reconnu comme un véritable droit fondamental inhérent à la personne humaine
One of today’s debates which can no longer be ignored and which has been on everyone’s lips for several years is the concept of identity. It is at the heart of numerous and diverse problematics. Beyond its polysemous paradox, identity is a well-known notion in humanities, whereas in law its outlines are still unclear. What does the legal notion of identity integrate? Can the right to which it is linked be a fundamental one? Identity is not only a set of elements that allows the state to make a distinction between two persons. The official state identification procedures, like civil status and identity documents, have to face current themes and particularly security ones. But identity, after being a long-time state monopoly, is becoming more and more often a way to claim. Indeed, identity, versatile and evolving, is freeing itself from the state regulatory framework so that the individual can express himself and enhance its individualization. Today, identity is not only the answer to « who am I? » but also to « who do I want to be? » Identity claim is part of a personal approach of multiple recognitions such as sex, gender, name, religion and origin. In fact, there is no identity crisis. On the contrary, identity is actually changing. The only crisis it would face would be, as theorized by psychologist Erik Erikson, due to adolescence. Therefore, identity would face a transition before adulthood that would ensure full legal status recognition. The right of identity is being complemented by the emerging right to identity. Even if it is still fragmented, it tends to be recognized as a real fundamental right inherent to human person

Abstract:
When describing faith development, established models often fail to incorporate the effects of an individual’s sociocultural context and control for additional dimensions of their identity such as ethnicity, gender and religious denomination (Mattis, 2001; Myers, 1991; Willis, 2005). This study involved 18 African American women and men between the ages of twenty and seventy-seven who identified as Baptist Church goers within the Southeastern region of the United States. A mixed methods design informed by interpretive and emerging social network paradigms was used (Hanson, 2005; LeCompte & Schensul, 1999). There were two phases of this study. Within phase one, twelve participants completed one semi-structured interview and the Optimal Theory and Identity Development-Revised (OTAID-R) instrument (Haggins, 1996) which was designed to evaluate identity development along multiple dimensions, including spirituality. Within phase two, six participants took part in a follow-up focus group to validate the emergent themes. Grounded theory was used to analyze the data (Strauss & Corbin, 1998). A circular socioculturally informed model of faith development was devised. The current model was most congruent with African centered models of faith development and revealed non-linear process of faith development. The OTAID-R survey was not significantly correlated with the age of the participants. Implications for research and practice include the importance of considering sociocultual context and experience when conceptualizing developmental processes within a culturally informed framework.

Abstract:
There are two ways in which a theory of personal identity can diverge from that most fundamental tenet of practical reason, self-concern. The first is if it is irrational to be concerned for one's own future (the Nihilistic Thesis). The second is if it is rational for one to be concerned, in the way in which one is ordinarily concerned for only oneself, about someone else's future (the Optimistic Thesis). Most theories of personal identity either claim to entail, or have been accused of entailing one or other of these theses. Yet they are both absurd. In this dissertation, I ask which theories of personal identity are compatible with practical reason. In Chapter One, I introduce three views of personal identity which reflect the major themes in the current debate: an animalist view, a brain-based view, and a psychology-based view. Whilst it is widely accepted that a view of personal identity is in difficulty if it entails that it is irrational for someone to be prudentially concerned about their own future, some views have embraced the idea that someone might be prudentially concerned about someone else's future. In Chapter Two and Three, I explore each of these possibilities in turn, and show how they both entail contradiction and absurdity. In Chapter Four, I develop the necessary and sufficient conditions for prudential concern, with which to determine which views of personal identity entail the Nihilistic and Optimistic Theses. In Chapter Five, I show that the psychology-based view entails both the Nihilistic and Optimistic Theses, and is therefore false. In Chapter Six, I show how the brain-based and animalist views could entail both theses, but conclude that, on current evidence, the animalist view does not entail either, and is therefore most compatible with practical reason.

Abstract:
AbstractThe impact of cultural values and religion on the experience, expression and perception of psychosis and serious mental illness is examined through five case narratives that involve patients of diverse illness experience and personal, cultural, religious and spiritual backgrounds. A recurrent theme among these five case narratives is that in all these respects, there is a complex interplay of values between Anglo-European religion, Māori spirituality and secular psychiatry. Within this clinical context, the health and well-being of patients living with psychosis and serious mental illness are more than the control of symptoms and behaviour and instead involves a perspective of meaning and significance which impacts on how patients recover their identity, roles, capacity and relationships.

Abstract:
The global pandemic produces rules that impose suffering on religions, which must reconsider their social role now. This entails the need to examine the rules of coexistence within societies, where Coronavirus phenomenon raises existential and religious questions. We need to look at the condition of the state of religious freedom – in the European context – referring to globalization in a climate of restriction of personal, social, and religious freedom. Complexity has undermined the role of states, the delimitation of competences regarding relations with religions. For them, building community and associations relations where religious freedom is expressed is fundamental. Believers are therefore bearers of specific interests. This particular situation calls for a new function for religions, focused on the value of the person who can lead to the common identity and guarantee «those values of social and community integration that seem particularly discovered today».

Abstract:
Ethnic identity as a sense of belonging based on our ancestry, cultural heritage, values, and traditions helps us to find our place in our homeland. But what if a person migrates to another country for purpose of getting a job or education? Do people living in their homeland and those who study or work abroad have differences in their ethnic identity? These questions became the basis of our investigation. The study`s purpose was to investigate the ethnic identity of Greeks in their homeland and Russia in order to find out how ethnic identity is determined by such factors as country (homeland or foreign country), occupation (work or study) and sex (male or female). We used the following questionnaires: The Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure (MEIM) by Jean S. Phinney, The Positive and Uncertain Ethnic Identity Measure by A.N. Tatarko and N.M. Lebedeva, The Twenty Statements Test by Manfred Kuhn & Thomas McPartland adapted by T.V. Rumyantseva. We conducted Mann-Whitney U-test and multivariate analysis of variance. Results indicate the following. There are differences between Greeks living in their homeland and in Russia. Namely, those living in Russia surpass in affective component of ethnic identity, positive and uncertain ethnic identity. They have more answers reflecting their Greek nationality. Greeks living in Greece have a higher level of ethnic identity search. These differences were corroborated among both men and women. Among students, we found out the same differences except for positive ethnic identity. The Greeks working in Greece showed higher uncertain ethnic identity than those working in Russia. There are differences in ethnic identity between Greeks who work or study. Those who work have higher results in ethnic identity and ethnic identity search among all groups. Working women also have higher results in positive and uncertain ethnic identity. Greeks working in Greece also surpass Greeks studying in the homeland in a number of answers reflecting their religion and in uncertain ethnic identity and concede in positive ethnic identity. Among those living in Russia, students have higher results in uncertain ethnic identity and lower in positive ethnic identity. As for the differences among men and women, Greek women have a more positive ethnic identity and men – uncertain ethnic identity. The same results we got among those who live in the homeland. But there were found no differences between Greek men and women living in Russia. Working men have higher results in ethnic identity search and lower positive ethnic identity in comparison to working women. Male students have higher results in uncertain ethnic identity and affective components of ethnic identity. As for the multivariate analysis of variance, it showed us the following. The factor sex determines ethnic identity, ethnic identity search, positive and uncertain ethnic identity. The factor country (homeland or Russia) determines affective component and ethnic identity search, positive and uncertain ethnic identity. The factor employment (work or study) determines ethnic identity search and positive ethnic identity.

The issue of identity always concerned humanity is discussed in the article. Traditionally, any human is born to live in a socety. However, history knows many attempts of standing out in the crowd.

Abstract:
India has a unique and complex religious history, with faith and spirituality playing an important role in everyday life. Hinduism is the majority religion, and there are many minority religions. India also has a complicated class system and entrenched gender structures. Disability is another important identity. Many of these factors determine people’s experiences of social inclusion or exclusion. This paper explores how these intersecting identities influence the experience of inequality and marginalisation, with a particular focus on people with disabilities from minority religious backgrounds. A participatory qualitative methodology was employed in Chennai, to gather case studies that describe in-depth experiences of participants. Our findings show that many factors that make up a person’s identity intersect in India and impact how someone is included or excluded by society, with religious minority affiliation, caste, disability status, and gender all having the potential to add layers of marginalisation. These various identity factors, and how individuals and society react to them, impact on how people experience their social existence. Identity factors that form the basis for discrimination can be either visible or invisible, and discrimination may be explicit or implicit. Despite various legal and human rights frameworks at the national and international level that aim to prevent marginalisation, discrimination based on these factors is still prevalent in India. While some tokenistic interventions and schemes are in place to overcome marginalisation, such initiatives often only focus on one factor of identity, rather than considering intersecting factors. People with disabilities continue to experience exclusion in all aspects of their lives. Discrimination can exist both between, as well as within, religious communities, and is particularly prevalent in formal environments. Caste-based exclusion continues to be a major problem in India. The current socioeconomic environment and political climate can be seen to perpetuate marginalisation based on these factors. However, when people are included in society, regardless of belonging to a religious minority, having a disability, or being a certain caste, the impact on their life can be very positive.
