This study examined the differences between religious and secular women in the process of judging a dramatic, complex event from a structural viewpoint, both multidimensional (large number of causes and effects, causes in different categories, large number of actors) and one-dimensional. The event was the evacuation of the Israeli settlements from the Gaza Strip, which took place in Israel in 2005. The participants were 244 Jewish women students, self-defined as religious or secular, who reported negative emotions in relation to the evacuation. Despite differences between the religious and secular women in the content and intensity of the emotions aroused, differences were not found in the pattern of connections (i.e. the structure) between the variables in the model. That is to say, the difference in the respondents’ political or religious tendencies did not affect their judgment structures. We also found that a multidimensional perception of the event will tone down the severity of the judgment, regardless of the judge’s views regarding the content of the event.

宗教与世俗女学生在评判过程中的差异

本研究从多维（大量因果、不同类别的原因、大量参与者）和一维的结构性观点出发，研究了宗教女性和世俗女性在判断戏剧性复杂事件过程中的差异。该事件是 2005 年在以色列发生的从加沙地带撤离以色列定居点的事件。参与者是 244 名犹太女学生，她们自称为宗教或世俗，她们报告了与撤离有关的负面情绪。尽管宗教女性和世俗女性在情绪的内容和强度上存在差异，但在模型中变量之间的联系模式（即结构）上没有发现差异。也就是说，受访者的政治或宗教倾向的差异并不影响他们的判断结构。我们还发现，对事件的多维感知会降低判断的严重性，而不管法官对事件内容的看法如何。
