This study provided preliminary data on the relationship between religiousness and assertiveness. Two scales for each variable were completed by 107 undergraduates. The results did not support a fourfold (subtypes) conceptualization of religiousness with assertiveness as the dependent measure. There was no significant correlation between intrinsic religiousness and assertiveness but a significant though small inverse correlation between extrinsic religiousness and assertiveness.
