Isi artikel

Why are some nations more religious than others? This article proposes a multilevel framework in wich country differences in religious attendance are explained by contextual, individual, and crosslevel interaction effects. Hypotheses from different theories are simultaneously tested with data from 60 nations obtained from the European/World Values Surveys. Multilevel logistic regression analyses show that religious regulation in a country deminishes religious attendance and that there are only small negative effects of people's own education and average educational level of the country. Religious attendance is strongly affected by personal and societal in securities and by parental and national religious socialization and level of urbanization. These theories explain 75% of the cross-national variation in religious attendance.
