Religious Conviction and the Relative Centrality of Major Life Domains

Abstract

The effect of religious conviction on the relative centrality of major life domains was examined through a representative sample of the Israeli labor force (n=942). The data were gathered in the framework of the MOW (Meaning of Work) international project. Independent-samples t tests yielded significant findings. Respondents with a strong religious conviction had a lower work centrality and a lower leisure centrality than those with a weak religious conviction. People with a strong religious conviction had a higher community centrality than those with a weak religious conviction. No significant difference was found between respondents with a strong religious conviction and those with a weak religious conviction concerning family centrality.
