This article describes the development and initial validation of an instrument of individual worldview which incorporates the three constructs which primarily differentiate worldview - level of explanation, causation, and observation. Results support the use of the worldview instrument as a research tool for measuring individuals' most deeply held beliefs and assumptions.
