“…On the subject of religiosity, this development could play a role, for example in thinking about existential questions and in asking questions about religion. This beginning of the 'quest' phase might be accompanied by some anxiety and conflict [15]. In this sample, pre-adolescents of passive religious mothers and of parents who disagreed on the subject of religion, could have some extra difficulties because of the combination of a less clear religious orientation, possibly accompanied with confusing messages about the role of religion in life.…”

“…This process of internalizing religious beliefs is known to be accompanied by a constructive phase of doubt, the so called 'quest' phase [14], which might be accompanied by some anxiety and conflict [15].

“…Pero justamente esto es lo que la investigación empírica previa muestra, y lo que el presente estudio confirma: el Sentido de la Vida tiene una relación más potente con la Religiosidad Intrínseca que con la Religiosidad de Búsqueda. Como ya se señaló, algunos autores se han mostrado críticos con la caracterización de esta última (Kojetin et al, 1987;Spilka, Kojetin et al, 1985), especialmente en su caracterización como una religiosidad más madura que la Intrínseca -al igual que se critica la concepción de Batson y Ventis de ésta como dogmática e inflexible-. Para Allport, la Religiosidad Intrínseca era la forma más positiva y auténtica de religiosidad, y, a la luz de los datos empíricos, los previos y los presentes, habría quizás que darle la razón: la fuerza de las convicciones religiosas puede ser una fuente de sentido.…”

“…Podría ser más bien, como apuntan sus críticos (p. ej., Kojetin et al, 1987;Spilka, Kojetin et al, 1985), que esta orientación religiosa fuera en realidad una expresión actitudinal caracterizada por la duda y la búsqueda de la identidad personal, propias de la etapa evolutiva de las edades durante la que tiene lugar la formación universitaria, y de las edades que tenían los participantes de Batson cuando construyó la escala de orientación religiosa. Por tanto, la duda y la búsqueda de la identidad no serían en sentido estricto características de una religiosidad madura, sino de una religiosidad en desarrollo, de una etapa de transición desde una religiosidad acríticamente asumida a la religiosidad adulta, personalmente integrada (Hood & Morris, 1985;Watson, Howard, Hood & Morris, 1988).…”
