Abstract
Four dimensional solutions were found to underlie dissimilarity judgments among 16 world religions by respondents from four categories of religious affiliation. Multidimensional scaling procedures resulted in a Foreign-Local and a Godless-Fundamental dimension common to all affiliative categories. A dimension of Power was shared by all but the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints members while a Social Acceptability dimension was used by both Catholics and the L. D. S. The United Church of Canada members and respondents with No Religious Affiliation shared in their use of an Open-Closed dimension whereas the L.D.S. generated a unique Chosen People dimension.
