Abstract
In the present study the association between religiosity and schizotypal traits was investigated. Two hundred and one respondents completed self‐report measures of schizotypal traits as well as measures of religiosity developed, on the basis of theoretical work on the nature of delusional thinking, to tap the dimensions of preoccupation, guidance, conviction, and emotional involvement. For women, no associations were found between scores on the religiosity and schizotypy scales. For men, however, higher scores on religious preoccupation were associated with higher scores on magical ideation. It would seem that religiosity is not clearly associated with schizotypal traits.
