Підсумок	The Glock-Stark framework, set out in Charles Glock and Rodney Stark's 1965 Religion and Society in Tension, recast religiosity from a single global trait into five analytically distinct dimensions of religious commitment: belief (ideological), practice (ritualistic), experience (experiential), knowledge (intellectual), and consequences (the effects of religion on everyday conduct). The core claim is that an individual can rank high on one dimension and low on another, so a one-number measure of 'how religious' someone is conceals more than it reveals. Operationally, each dimension is tapped by its own cluster of survey items, scaled separately, and the correlations among the dimensions are themselves an object of study. This multidimensional measurement model became the template for nearly all later psychometric work on religiousness.	The Religious Orientation Scale (ROS), introduced by Gordon Allport and J. Michael Ross in 1967, is the instrument that operationalized Allport's distinction between two motivational stances toward faith. The extrinsic orientation treats religion as a means to other ends — comfort, security, social standing — while the intrinsic orientation treats faith as the master motive that the believer lives by. The ROS measures the two orientations on separate item sets rather than as opposite ends of one continuum, which means a respondent can score high, low, or moderate on each independently. Allport and Ross used this independence to build a fourfold typology, adding the 'indiscriminately proreligious' (high on both) and 'indiscriminately antireligious' (low on both) categories, and showed that orientation, not mere churchgoing, predicted prejudice.
