| Sumario: | This study addresses two research questions concerning the level and the correlates of mystical experience among adolescents in Germany. The first question concerns the extent to which mystical experience is reported by religiously unaffiliated young people compared with Christian affiliates and Muslim affiliates. The second question concerns the connection between reported mystical experience and psychopathology among these three groups of young people. Data provided by 578 Christians, 311 Muslims, and 248 religiously unaffiliated students between the ages of 15 and 19 years found levels of reported mystical experience only slightly lower among the religiously unaffiliated young people and found no evidence to connect reported mystical experience with psychopathology among any of the three groups. |
