Summary definition of worldview and characteristics to reference in relation to your chosen article:
James Sire sees a worldview as having three aspects: (a) an inner commitment that (b) can be expressed in language, (c) speaking of the nature of reality and serves as a foundation for how we live and think: “A worldview is a commitment, a fundamental orientation of the heart, that can be expressed as a story or in a set of presuppositions (assumptions which may be true, partially true or entirely false) which we hold (consciously or subconsciously, consistently or inconsistently) about the basic constitution of reality, and that provides the foundation on which we live and move and have our being.” Naming the Elephant: Worldview as a Concept (Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2004), 122.
