台灣制度性宗教，其信徒相較於其他信仰者較不易有信仰跨界的現象，但此現象僅發現於基督宗教徒中，佛教雖為制度性宗教，但其信徒之信仰跨界程度明顯高於基督宗教徒。源自於中國傳統之擴散性宗教(民間信仰、道教)或與中國文化有高度內在親和性之佛教，其信徒相較於基督宗教徒都有更高的信仰跨界傾向。
世俗化理論對於解釋個人信仰跨界現象有顯著的影響，但其效果卻不如研究假設所預期般，對個人信仰跨界有正向加強的效果，反而是呈現一股反向的作用力。研究結果顯示：教育年數提高使個人更不會在信仰上有所跨界，也就是隨著個人理性思維提升而更懂得自身信仰界線何在，而更不會在精神世界上允許信仰跨界這種矛盾現象，這點和Weber所提出之個人之理性化與現代化，會促使人們追求信仰上的首尾一貫看法一致。
個人世俗化程度對於信仰跨界之影響，相較於個人中國宗教文化傳統程度，是呈現相反但同樣顯著之效果，其中又以教育年數的效果尤為顯著。現代教育就某些程度來說，自五四以來便意味著與傳統價值體系對立，但這並不代表世俗化與中國宗教文化傳統之影響不能同時並存。本文在控制世俗化效果後，發現個人中國宗教文化傳統程度仍是會加強個人信仰跨界之傾向，並且不會降低世俗化程度對於信仰跨界之解釋能力。

The institutional religion believer is less religious cross-border tendency than other religion believers in Taiwan. But this phenomenon exist only in Christianity, not in Buddhism. Although Buddhism is one of institutional religions, but their believers have more religious cross-border tendency than Christianity. The Chinese diffused religion (folk religions, Taoism), their believers have more religious cross-border tendency than Christianity.
The secularization has significant effect with people’s religious cross-border, but the effect is not as expected. The research hypothesis is secularization increase religious cross-border tendency, but we found the secularization will decrease religious cross-border tendency. With education year increase, people will not to cross-border in religion. In the other words, with reasoning increase, people will know where are their believer border.
Since the May Fourth Movement, modern education means conflict with Chinese tradition culture value, but this is not means that the effect of both can’t exist at the same time. After we control secularization effect, we found one’s Chinese tradition culture level will increase one’s religious cross-border tendency, and it is not to decrease explanation of Secularization.
