| Summary: | This exploratory study argues for the inclusion of religious composition variables as possible measures of press freedom. An analysis of press freedom and religious composition measures in 190 nations, along with correlation measures, reveals highly significant associations between the religious composition of nations and their level of press freedom. The study calls on future studies to further examine the association between religion and press freedom and argues for the inclusion of religious variables in future studies on press freedom. |
