We propose a psychology of worldview as an integrative framework for the study of culture and religion. We propose six aspects of worldview, each influenced by national and religious cultures: ontology (existential beliefs), epistemology (what can be known and how one should reason), semiotics (language and symbols used to describe the world), axiology (proximate goals, values, and morals), teleology (ultimate goals and the afterlife consequences of action), and praxeology (proscriptions and prescriptions for behavior). More attention to worldview can help remedy a lack of attention to: (i) the mutual influences of these different kinds of cultures (including national and religious), (ii) trans-national religious groups, (iii) non-religious belief systems, and (iv) the psychological predictors of cultural conflict. Worldviews can predict both individual and group behaviors and, further, afford a more nuanced understanding of cultural and religious processes as well as providing a platform for interdisciplinary dialogue.Integrating the Study of Culture and Religion: Toward a Psychology of Worldview Culture, broadly defined, refers to a shared system of knowledge, language, social norms, values, and behaviors. From this perspective, both national groups and religions can be considered forms of cultures (Cohen, 2009). However, psychologists have typically focused on national cultures, leaving religions as under-explored cultures in psychology. Moreover, researchers rarely examine how national and religious cultures mutually influence or transform one another. One explanation for this dearth in the literature is that researchers have not found an integrative framework with which to discuss the interaction of national and religious beliefs, values, and traditions.In this article, we argue that a focus on worldview could provide just such a framework. Because both national and religious cultures espouse particular worldviews, we argue that an integrative psychology of worldview would advance the study of both religion and national culture, in addition to highlighting the interaction of religious and cultural influences at both the individual and group level. In this article, we first discuss the intersections of religion and culture, and the need for an integrative framework. We next discuss the history of the construct of worldview, propose six components of worldviews, and discuss how each of these components may be represented at both the individual and group levels. Finally, because cultural worldviews are associated with language, ecologies, and ideologies, we conclude that an integrative psychology of worldview affords a more nuanced understanding of cultural processes, in general, and provides a common ground for future interdisciplinary dialogues.Social and Personality Psychology Compass 5/3 (2011):
