520 |a A 10-item Sabbath Beliefs and Practices Scale was administered to 100 respondents as a part of a congregational study designed to investigate how beliefs about the Christian Sabbath influenced sport spectatorship on Sunday. Using a five point Likert-type scale, ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree) respondents were asked to indicate their strength of agreement with the statements relating to the Christian Sabbath. Key findings included: (1) a strong relationship between belief (that attending a sporting event on Sunday was sinful) and source of belief (the Bible, a church doctrine, personal belief); and (2) a significant difference in Sabbath Belief and Practices Scores as a function of length of membership in the congregation. The results suggest that these congregants would find ways to negotiate religious constraints and attend sporting events on Sunday.
