  1. Adherence to the established religion, or to established codes of conduct
    • 2003, Robert Stephen Feldman, Development Across the Life Span:
      Institutionalism is brought about, in part, by a sense of learned helplessness, a belief that one has no control over one's environment.
    • 2016, David F. Ruccio, Jack Amariglio, Postmodern Moments in Modern Economics, page 213:
      Therefore, in addition to noting the similarities between the "new Nietzsche" and nonabsolutist institutionalism, we want to show briefly what, specifically, a reading of Nietzsche adds to the institutionalist treatment of values.
  2. The use of public institutions in health care and social services
