Summary: | This special issue contains four original empirical articles that address links between religion and family functioning. The articles are marked by many desired attributes: a rich combination of novel variables and constructs, a sampling of a diverse set of religious groups, and multiple measures of religiosity. The data analyses here not only examine between— group effects and direct links between religiosity and parenting or child outcome but also offer a more complex and interesting set of findings. Specifically, the authors have found provocative interaction or mediation effects between different religiosity measures in relation to parenting behaviors or child outcomes. Collectively, the four articles illuminate how the various dimensions of religiosity can play a powerful role in the family. |
