Such framework includes a set of guidelines that govern the behavior of authoritarian subjects. However, previous studies examining these relationships did not take into account the specific contribution of each of the dimensions of authoritarianism. The main objective of the study was to analyze the relationship between the dimensions of authoritarianism, the centrality of religion and religious orientations. 431 college students participated, aged between 20 and 35 years, 72.38% of them were women. It was observed that the two dimensions of authoritarianism are related to centrality of religion, intrinsic and extrinsic religious orientation. Relationships between dimensions are discussed as well as their linear and nonlinear analysis.}, number={118}, journal={Actualidades en Psicología}, author={Etchezahar, Edgardo and Brussino, Silvina}, year={2015}, month={Jun.}, pages={73–81} }
