Abstract

The analysis of the decision-making process resulted in identification of seven theoretical (sub)categories or concepts, among them, one key-category was identified as Basic Social Psychological Process (BSPP) and named seeking means to affirm the new religious identity. Based on the empirical findings, and no matter the variety of motives to accept the teachings that promote such clothing per se, seeking the means to affirm the new identity was what all the narratives had in common. This chapter elaborates and graphically (in the form of the conceptual maps) illustrates phases identified in the process of making the decision to adopt the practice of wearing niqab.
