"Paloutzian (experimental and social psychology, Westmont College) and Park (psychology, U. of Connecticut) provide a 33-chapter handbook on the psychology of religion and spirituality, for social and clinical psychologists, pastoral counselors, and students and researchers in psychology and religious studies. Psychologists and a few religious studies specialists from the US and some countries in Europe address the foundations, including definitions, core issues, measurement assessment, research methods, psychodynamic psychology and religion, and evolutionary psychology as a foundation for the psychology of religion; religious and spiritual development across the lifespan; and the neural and cognitive bases of religion and connections to emotion, personality, culture, and social behavior. They discuss religious practices and rituals, conversion experiences, prayer, spiritual struggles, fundamentalism, forgiveness, values, and morality, and implications for individual and collective well-being in terms of health, mental health, coping, psychotherapy, workplace spirituality research, terrorism, and other areas. New topics in this edition include cross-cultural issues, spiritual goals, emotional values, and mindfulness. Most chapters have been redesigned or rewritten, with 25 new and eight revised chapters. The main themes of the book are more integrated, and the introductory and concluding chapters argue that the application of religious meaning systems and the multilevel interdisciplinary paradigm can allow reconceptualization of the field and expand research.

"Prasangka terhadap suatu kelompok agama tertentu merupakan sebuah masalah yang melanda Indonesia. Meskipun terdapat norma dan ajaran-ajaran yang mendorong masyarakat kita untuk menghormati umat beragama lain, prasangka dan diskriminasi tetap terjadi. Terror Management Theory (TMT) bisa memberikan penjelasan mengenai masalah ini. Untuk ini, sebuah eksperimen dilakukan untuk menguji pengaruh dari mortality salience (MS) terhadap prasangka agama dan peran self esteem (SE) sebagai moderator dari pengaruh MS. Dengan melibatkan partisipan Muslim (N=38), hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa MS tidak meningkatkan prasangka agama secara keseluruhan, tapi meningkatkan stereotipe dan afek negatif partisipan terhadap anggota kelompok Kristen. Di sisi lain, SE tidak terbukti sebagai moderator antara MS dan prasangka agama.

Prejudice toward a specific religious group is one of the problems that exist in Indonesia. Even though there are norms and values that encourages to respect other religious groups, prejudice and discrimination still existed. Terror Management Theory (TMT) could explain this phenomenon. In order to explain this phenomenon, an experiment is conducted to test the influence of mortality salience (MS) on religious prejudice and also the moderating role of self esteem (SE). Involving Moslem partricipants (N=38), results shows that MS did not increases the level of religious prejudice as a whole, but it does increases the level of negative stereotype and affect towards Christianity believers. In other hand, we have determined that SE is not a moderator between MS and religious prejudice."

"Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk melihat hubungan antara komitmen beragama dan kesediaan berkorban untuk agama, serta juga untuk melihat dimensi-dimensi dalam komitmen beragama manakah yang memiliki hubungan dengan kesediaan berkorban untuk agama. Pengukuran komitmen beragama menggunakan alat ukur religiusitas (Zulhairi, 2005) yang diadaptasi dari alat ukur komitmen beragama milik Glock (dalam Robinson dan Shaver, 1980) dan pengukuran kesediaan berkorban menggunakan alat ukur willingness to engage in extreme behaviors (Swan, Gomez, Morales, Huici dan Hixon, 2010). Partisipan penelitian ini berjumlah 74 orang pemeluk agama Islam yang berdomisili di Jabodetabek. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan terdapat hubungan positif yang signifikan antara komitmen beragama dan kesediaan berkorban untuk agama (R = 0.451; p = 0.007, signifikan pada L.o.S 0.01). Selain itu, dimensi ritual diketahui sebagai dimensi satu-satunya dalam komitmen beragama yang memiliki hubungan signifikan dengan kesediaan berkorban pada pemeluk agama Islam Islam (r = 0.303; p = 0.011, signifikan pada L.o.S 0.05).

"Religion in personality theory makes clear the link between theory and research and personality and religion. Presently, most personality texts have a limited discussion of religion and reference few theorists other than Freud and Maslow in relation to the subject. This book reviews the theory and the empirical literature on the writings of 14 theorists. Every chapter concludes with a summation of the current research on the theorist’s proposals."
