Relationships between Religious Orientation, Sexuality and Prosociality

Antonio DRAGUN

Sažetak

Among 223 college students from the University of Zagreb,
105 male and 118 female students, aged 19-34 years,
examined the association among religiosity (general, intrinsic,
extrinsic-social and extrinsic-personal religiosity), sexuality
(three sexual styles/scripts; "role enactment", "sexual
trance" and "partner engagement"; age for onset of sexual
intercourse and number of sexual partners) and prosociality
(emotional empathy and altruism). Intrinsic and extrinsic-
-social religiosity were positively correlated with preferences
for partner engagement, and negatively correlated with
number of sexual partners. General, intrinsic, extrinsic-social
and extrinsic-personal religiosity were positively correlated
with emotional empathy; general and extrinsic-personal religiosity
were also positively correlated with altruism. Partner
engagement and sexual trance were positively correlated
with emotional empathy, and number of sexual partners was
negatively correlated with emotional empathy. There were
some gender differences in the relationships among three
examined fields. Furthermore, sexually unexperienced students
had significantly higher results in intrinsic, extrinsic-
-social and extrinsic-personal religiosity than sexually experienced
students had. The results are discussed regarding
the theories of consistency and possible alternative explanations.
