On Intelligence Education and Religious Beliefs Intelligence 41,2 (March-April 2013): 121-128. Also: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0160289613000020#sec2 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Armed Forces Qualifications Test (AFQT); Education; General Social Survey (GSS); Intelligence; Religion; Religious Influences A number of authors have suggested that education mediates the negative effect of intelligence on religiosity. However, there is very little direct evidence for this mediation, and the indirect evidence is contradictory. The results of the current paper suggest that, by and large, education does not mediate the effect of intelligence on religiosity. However, the results also suggest that since education has a positive effect on religiosity when religious background is strong and a negative effect when religious background is weak, and since intelligence has a positive effect on education, the negative effect of intelligence on religiosity is stronger when religious background is strong than when it is weak. We examine this mediated moderation model in two large, nationally representative, databases. |
