Summary: | Previous research revealed significant declines in religious practice with age for adolescents from Baptist, Catholic and Mainline Protestant denominations. In the present study we extend that research to determine whether other characteristics of adolescents' religiosity and whether parental religiousness and parental control have an effect on that decline. In that regard, we show that while parental religiosity and adolescents' religious belief are strongly related to religious practice, neither affects the decline in practice with age. We also find that the decline in religious practice with age does vary jointly across categories of religious experience and parental control. |
