Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a developmental typology that captures how students make meaning of their worldview as it is related to spirituality and religiosity. Through empirical analyses, we designed an inclusive typology that represents both students’ level of pluralism and their self-authored worldview commitment. Implications are discussed.
