Method evidence record

RCI-10

The Religious Commitment Inventory-10 (RCI-10), developed by Worthington and colleagues in 2003, is a brief 10-item self-report measure of religious commitment: the degree to which an individual dedicates themselves to religious beliefs, practices, and community. The RCI-10 distinguishes between two dimensions of commitment: Intrapersonal (personal faith conviction, spiritual discipline, religious significance) and Interpersonal (engagement with faith community, public religious identity, shared practices). It has become widely used in counseling psychology, pastoral care, and research on religiosity and well-being to assess the strength and breadth of religious dedication.
