  • Two types of religious internalization and their relations to religious orientations and mental health.
    Journal of personality and social psychology, 1993
    Co-Authors: Richard M. Ryan, Scott Rigby, Kristi King
    Abstract:

    Two types of religious internalization are conceptualized that are presumed to vary in their relative autonomy. Introjection represents a partial internalization of beliefs and is characterized by self- and other-approval-based pressures. Identification represents adoption of beliefs as personal values and is characterized by greater volition. These 2 types of internalization are compared conceptually and empirically with existing measures of religious orientation and are used to predict varied functional outcomes. Results in 4 independent Christian samples show systematic construct validities and relations with mental health and self-related outcomes. Also, evangelical teenagers are shown to be higher on both Introjection and identification than controls. Results are discussed both in terms of prior approaches to the psychology of religion and the significance of internalization for personality functioning.

  • facilitating internalization the self determination theory perspective
    Journal of Personality, 1994
    Co-Authors: Edward L Deci, Haleh Eghrari, Brian C Patrick, Dean R Leone
    Abstract:

    Self-determination theory (Deci & Ryan, 1985) posits that (a) people are inherently motivated to internalize the regulation of uninteresting though important activities; (b) there are two different processes through which such internalization can occur, resulting in qualitatively different styles of self-regulation; and (c) the social context influences which internalization process and regulatory style occur. The two types of internalization are Introjection, which entails taking in a value or regulatory process but not accepting it as one's own, and integration, through which the regulation is assimilated with one's core sense of self. Introjection results in internally controlling regulation, whereas integration results in self-determination. An experiment supported our hypothesis that three facilitating contextual factors—namely, providing a meaningful rationale, acknowledging the behaver's feelings, and conveying choice—promote internalization, as evidenced by the subsequent self-regulation of behavior. This experiment also supported our expectation that when the social context supports self-determination, integration tends to occur, whereas when the context does not support self-determination, Introjection tends to occur.

  • Facllltaitng IntemaUzatlon: The Self-Determination Theory Perspective
    1994
    Co-Authors: Edward L. Decl, Brian C Patrick, Haleh Eghrarl, Dean R Leone
    Abstract:

    Self-determination theory (Deci & Ryan, 1985) posits that (a) people are inherently motivated to internalize the regulation of uninteresting though important activities; (b) there are two different processes through which such intemalization can occur, resulting in qualitatively different styles of self- regulation; and (c) the social context influences which intemalization process and regulatory style occur. The two types of intemalization are Introjection, which entails taking in a value or regulatory process but not accepting it as one's own, and integration, through which the regulation is assimilated with one's core sense of self. Introjection results in intemally controlling regulation, whereas integration results in self-determin ation. An experiment supported our hypothesis that three facilitating contextual factors—namely, providing a meaningful rationale, acknowledging the behaver's feelings, and convey- ing choice—promote intemalization, as evidenced by the subsequent self- regulation of behavior. This experiment also supported our expectation that when the social context supports self-determination, integration tends to occur, whereas when the context does not support self-determination, Introjection tends to occur.

  • Identified and introjected forms of political internalization: Extending self-determination theory.
    Journal of personality and social psychology, 1996
    Co-Authors: Richard Koestner, Gaëtan F. Losier, Robert J. Vallerand, Donald Carducci
    Abstract:

    Canadian voters' reasons for following political events were assessed prior to the 1992 Constitutional Referendum and the 1993 federal election. Results showed that reasons reflecting identification were endorsed more frequently than those reflecting Introjection, and distinctive patterns of cognitions, emotions, and actions were associated with the 2 types of internalization. Identification was associated with actively seeking information about political events, possessing a complex set of political attitudes, and being more likely to actually vote. Introjection was associated with relying on the influence of important others, experiencing conflicted emotions about political outcomes, and vulnerability to persuasion. The study also provided evidence that identification and Introjection toward politics are distinguishable from intrinsic motivation and amotivation.
