| Итог: | Sacred stories and religious texts play a central role in religion, yet there is a paucity of research investigating the relationship between religiosity and individual differences in how people engage with stories. Here, we examine the relationship between religiosity, as well as a belief in God, and three variables related to how individuals interact with narratives: a tendency to become absorbed in stories (transportability), a tendency to form relationships with the characters in stories (parasociability), and a reluctance to imaginatively engage with immoral fictions (imaginative resistance). Although transportability was only weakly related to intrinsic religiosity, both parasociability and imaginative resistance were correlated with a range of religiosity measures. Notably, the relationship between parasociability and religiosity was mediated by personal involvement with religious texts. |
