This study examines religious experiences (REs) and their transformative aftereffects (TAs) among pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago. Analyzing 32 travelogue testimonies and survey data from 501 participants, it identifies three key dimensions of post-RE transformations: heightened Unity and Love, a strong commitment to the Apostolic Mission, and expanded Spirituality, Wisdom, and Detachment. Pilgrims report a shift toward greater love, unity with nature, and sharing insights, as well as increased spirituality and reduced materialism. The study finds significant correlations between TAs and individuals prioritizing their relationship with God and regular religious practices, highlighting REs' impact on societal values and beliefs.
本研究考察了圣地亚哥朝圣者的宗教体验（REs）及其变革性的后续影响（TAs）。通过分析 32 篇旅行见闻和 501 名参与者的调查数据，本研究确定了 RE 后变革的三个关键维度：更高的统一与爱、对使徒使命的坚定承诺，以及扩展的灵性、智慧和超脱。朝圣者报告说，他们更倾向于爱、与自然的统一以及分享见解，同时增加了灵性并减少了物质主义。研究发现，TAs 与个人优先考虑与上帝的关系和定期进行宗教实践之间存在显著相关性，突出了 REs 对社会价值观和信仰的影响。
