- Abstract (Swedish)
- Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka relationen mellan personlighet, i enlighet med femfaktormodellen, och religiositet, spiritualitet samt psykedelika. Sambandet undersöktes genom en kvantitativ enkät där resultaten analyserades med korrelation- och regressionsanalyser. 125 personer deltog i studien. Konstrukten personlighet, religiositet och spiritualitet operationaliserades med skalorna IPIP-NEO 120, MI-RSWB-E och SEI-R. Inställning till psykedelika undersöktes genom två frågor som sedan sammanställdes till en gemensam skala; “psykedelika”. Signifikanta samband uppvisades mellan Openness och spiritualitet (r= .19, β=.20), Neuroticism och spiritualitet (r=-.20), Neuroticism och religiositet (r=-.19), Openness och psykedelika... (More)

Resultaten öppnade även upp för en explorativ frågeställning kring hur religiositet och spiritualitet samvarierar med inställning till psykedelika. Individer med högre värden på religiositet uppvisade en mer negativ inställning till psykedelika (β= -.49) medan spirituella individer hade en mer positiv inställning (β= .32). Slutsatsen var att personlighet till viss del har en relation med religiositet, spiritualitet och psykedelika, vilket även stödjer tidigare forskning. Även religiositet, spiritualitet och psykedelika var variabler starkt relaterade till varandra. Resultaten bidrar till en större förståelse gällande varför individer besitter vissa trosuppfattningar och har olika inställningar till olika fenomen. (Less)

- The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relation between personality, in terms of the Five Factor Model, religiosity, spirituality and psychedelics.

The constructs personality, religiosity and spirituality operationalized with the scales IPIP-NEO 120, MI-RSWB-E and SEI-R.

The results opened up for an explorative research question regarding how religiosity and spirituality covariates with attitude towards psychedelics. Individuals with higher values on religiosity showed a more negative attitude towards psychedelics (β= -.49) whereas spiritual individuals had a more positive attitude (β= .32). The conclusion was that personality to some extent has a relation with religiosity, spirituality and psychedelics, which also supports previous research. Also religiosity, spirituality and psychedelics were variables strongly related to each other. The results contribute to a greater understanding of why individuals possess specific beliefs and have different attitudes towards different phenomena. (Less)
