- Abstract
Research on religiosity in Buddhists was based on theory of five coredimensions of religiosity and The Centrality of Religiosity Scale by Huber & Huber (2012). Our samples included 472 Buddhists, 45 monks and 427 laypeople who were engaged in four Sanghas in Hanoi, Bac Ninh, Ninh Binh, and Hai Phong. Results showed that the average religiosity score was M = 3.73, SD = .824; religiosity manifested highest in ideology and lowest in religious experience. Religious variables such as religious status (monk versus layperson), have or have not taken refuge in the Three Jewels, time of refuge, practice location, practice Sangha, and self-change significantly influenced religiosity. Particularly, those who took refuge in the Three Jewels, frequently practiced Buddhism at pagodas or with Sangha, and noted that those with positive personal changes had higher Buddhist belief than other people. Personal and community practices were the best predictors of variance in Buddhist religiosity. We also compared our research results to that of other studies and made some suggestions for future studies.
