“…Based on a nationally representative US sample, 24% of the participants were considered multi-religious (Corcoran et al, 2021). Multi-, complex-(Corcoran et al, 2021), hybrid- (Ammerman, 2014) or pluralistic- (Bernhardt, 2017) religious identities consist of "draw[ing] on the spiritual sources of different religious traditions … amalgamated into a coherent whole" (Bernhardt, 2017, p. 415). Ammerman (2014) noted, "identities are always multistranded and intersectional" (p. 195), rather than "mutually exclusive (dis)belief categories" (Corcoran et al, 2021, p. 438).…”

IntroductionExisting research shows positive associations between humility and well-being, and between civic engagement and well-being. Rarely have humility, civic engagement, and well-being been examined together. We build off of previous cross-sectional findings and a prior longitudinal study that used three waves of data and found significant positive bivariate correlations between humility and the presence of life purpose across time points.MethodsExtending these previous findings, we used six waves of data obtained from graduate students at 18 seminaries across North America (N = 574; Mage = 31.54; 46.7% female; 65.3% White) to explore the dynamic associations among humility and life purpose, along with horizontal transcendence (an indicator of the attitudinal dimension of civic engagement) and social justice activism (an indicator for the behavioral dimension). We explored reciprocal short-run processes and dynamic long-run effects using a general cross-lagged panel model.Results and discussionWe found robust evidence for a reciprocal influence between the presence of life purpose and horizontal transcendence, and long-run effects for initial levels of life purpose to influence later levels of horizontal transcendence. We also found long-run effects for the influence of initial levels of life purpose on later levels of humility, and initial levels of social justice activism on later levels of horizontal transcendence. Implications center on the use of the findings for planning future one-time life purpose and social justice interventions to affect changes in humility and horizontal transcendence.
