520 |a This study explores the role of religion in shaping public support for various AIDS prevention policies. We examine the effects, both direct and indirect, of religious affiliation and religiosity on attitudes toward four intrusive and four non-intrusive AIDS prevention policies. We exploit the unique advantages for such a study provided by the 1988 NORC General Social Survey which included topical modules on both religion and AIDS. Results from logistic regression analyses reveal that the effects of religion are largely indirect, mediated through entrenched political and social-moral values including political conservativism and attitudes toward homosexuality. However, direct inverse effects of religious affiliation (i.e., conservative Protestantism) and religiosity are observed for support of government efforts to promote safe-sex messages. These findings are then discussed as they relate to efforts at educating the public about the spread of AIDS and the likely effectiveness of various AIDS prevention strategies.
