摘要
Evidence indicates that education is positively associated with religious activity. However, it is not necessarily the case that education increases religious activity. The results in this study suggest that education is not an exogenous determinant of attendance at weekly religious services and religious contributions. Furthermore, no causal effect of education on religious activity is found when education is treated as endogenous. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
