Résumé: | This study examined the relationships among attachment, religious fundamentalism, and homophobia. In a sample of 198 undergraduates from a "Bible-Belt" community, secure attachment was associated with religious fundamentalism. The results indicate that religious fundamentalism and sex were the only significant predictors of homophobia. Consistent with previous research (Kite, 1994), males were significantly more homophobic than females. Contrary to the hypotheses, attachment was not predictive of homophobia and did not moderate the relationship between religious fundamentalism and homophobia. |
