These new dimensions describe the manner in which people structure their world, religious or secular world as the case may be, and the signifijicance they ascribe to it. The study, conducted among grade 12 students (N=100) in state (secular) schools in Israel, revealed that only fijive of the eight types in the theoretical model are manifested empirically: three secular (conceptual, inherited and integrative) and two religious (conceptual and inherited). It posits that the concepts “religious” and “secular” are comprehensive and cannot fully describe the complexity of an individual’s selfand public defijinition in a modern, pluralistic world.
