Student religious attitudes and global citizenship antecedents, identification, and outcomes in a Filipino sample

In the present study, we investigated the influence of religious attitudes on a model of antecedents, identification, and outcomes of global citizenship using predictive quantitative tools. A total of 2,694 university students were recruited from two campuses of a large state university in southern Philippines and completed measures regarding religious attitudes and antecedents and outcomes of global citizenship identification. Data were analysed using correlations and structural equation modelling. Results showed that among three religious attitude dimensions, the religious behavioural dimension (religiosity) predicted antecedents, identification, and outcomes of global citizenship attitudes of university students. Implications of the results were analysed with respect to religious attitudes, university extension programmes and global citizenship education.
