“…[71][72][73]. Johnson et al [74] found that authoritarian subjects from entrepreneurial backgrounds were more restrictive than nonauthoritarians in the number of behaviours they considered appropriate for children of both sexes. As authoritarianism is positively correlated with European Journal of Marketing 28,5 42 religiosity, it is therefore predicted that individuals with pro-religious orientations are more likely to make autonomous decisions.…”

IntroductionReligion, being an aspect of culture, has considerable influence on people's values, habits and attitudes, and it greatly influences lifestyle, which in turn affects consumer decision behaviour[e.g. 1-3]. As Peterson and Roy[4] comment, one function of religion is to provide a source of meaning and purpose for people. Religion can provide a framework which makes life understandable and interpretable. Although religion has been a significant force in the lives of many individuals, its role in consumer choice can be characterized as unclear or "fuzzy". First, religion serves to define the ways to do things (i.e. established practice) and to provide a series of tools and techniques for social behaviour [5][6][7][8]. Second, religion either fosters or frowns on particular choice behaviour [9,10]. Thus, despite the potential importance of the religion or religiosity constructs, any empirical investigation of these constructs in consumer behaviour has been rare.More generally, the religions practised in a society influence husband/wife decision-making roles, as well as societal institutions and customs. It has been suggested that religious orientation is a strong influence on the development of family commitment in giving the family a sense of purpose and values oriented to the need and welfare of others [e.g. 11,12]. Commitment, in the causal sequence, is assumed to influence family time and effort. Religious devoutness indirectly influences commitment by directly affecting relationship qualities (i.e. love/caring), locus of control and gender roles which in turn directly influence commitment [11].Little empirical information is available on the relationship between family values and religion. Most of the literature on families and religion falls into one of four categories:(

“…Dichotomous sex role conceptions within the authoritarian family emphasize exaggerated masculine and feminine characteristics. Johnson, Johnson, and Martin (1961) found that authoritarian subjects from entrepreneurial backgrounds were more restrictive than nonauthoritarians in the number of behaviors that they considered appropriate to children of both sexes. Slotnick and Bleiberg (1974) administered the Occupational Sex-Typing Scale to male college students.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of authoritarianism in subjects' judgments of male and female candidates in a job selection interview. Male and female personnel officers were randomly selected from a pool of 144 volunteers and were assigned on the basis of Revised California F Scale scores to high, moderate, and low authoritarian groups, until 14 males and 14 females comprised each treatment. It was hypothesized that high authoritarian personnel officers of both sexes (a) would rate male job applicants more favorably than females when they were presented in simulated videotaped recruitment interviews and (b) would subsequently make more job offers to male than female job applicants. The data supported both of these hypotheses and indicated the usefulness of extending this approach to other aspects of the employment setting as well as to other nonemployment settings such as vocational counseling.
