  • Religion and Delinquency

    Douglas M Sloane, Raymond H PotvinARTICLESocial Forces1986Citada por: 13

    Research on the relationship between religion and delinquency has produced contradictory results, with some investigators uncovering a positive association, others a negative one, and still others none. Recent attempts to reconcile these findings have involved arguments that where, or in what social context, we measure the religion-delinquency association can affect our results. Herein, we show that how we measure that association can have an eve…

  • Adolescent Religion

    Raymond H Potvin, Che-Fu LeeARTICLESociological Analysis1982Citada por: 2

    This paper examines the relationship between practice and internal religiousness (belief and experience) among adolescents. At ages 13–14 the influence of practice on internal religiousness was found to be greater than the reverse process. At ages 15–16 the influence of belief upon practice is greater than the influence of practice upon experiential religiousness. At ages 17–18 the greater influence of practice upon internal religiousness is rees…

    Open AccessHart M Nelsen, Raymond H PotvinARTICLEThe Annals of the American…1977

    The heyday of studies of the rural church was the 1920s-1940s. Even then researchers noted that structural rather than ecological characteristics were especially im portant in understanding it. A more recent focus has been on rural-urban differences in religiosity. Research done in the 1960s and 1970s indicated differences only on the ideological (belief) dimension. Data from two 1975 studies—one involv ing children in Minnesota and the other ado…

  • Interethnic Marriage as an Index of Assimilation

    Che-Fu Lee, Raymond H Potvin et al.ARTICLESocial Forces1974

    Registration data on intergroup marriages in Singapore for 1962–69 are analyzed to study assimilation patterns. The need for standardized data which are not affected by group size and sex ratios is stressed and a probability index of intermarriages between groups is generated. The Chinese are the most isolated of groups while the Indians and Malays, among the major groups, are the closest on the basis of this index. Assortative mating rather than…

  • Catholic College Women and Family-Size Preferences

    Raymond H Potvin, Che-Fu LeeARTICLESociological Analysis1974

    Data on family-size preferences of a 1964–1967 cohort of Catholic college women are reanalyzed using standardized matrices and analysis of covariance. The earlier Westoff and Potvin conclusion that the higher fertility preferences of these women educated in Catholic colleges was in part a function of selectivity is sustained, but the conclusion that the Catholic college also maintained high levels is to be modified somewhat. Different types of co…

  • Fertility, Ideal Family-Size and Religious Orientation among U.S. Catholics

    Raymond H Potvin, Thomas K BurchARTICLESociological Analysis1968

    These data are based on a nationally representative sample of 1,028 currently married Catholic women. From a pool of religious items, seven clearly defined factors or dimensions of religiousness were extracted and related to ideal and actual family-size. The results raise the question whether contraceptive practice and fertility may not be as predictive of religious practice as the reverse hypothesis and suggest a possible reinterpretation of the…

  • Factors Affecting Catholic Wives' Conformity to Their Church Magisterium's Position on Birth Control

    Raymond H Potvin, Charles F Westoff et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family1968Citada por: 5

    The data reported were derived from the National Fertility Study a probability sample of 5600 US wives surveyed in late 1965. The proportion of Catholic wives using contraceptive methods other than rhythm increased since 1955 and became a majority by 1965. This type of nonconforming is related strongly and inversely to such measures of religiousness as frequency of receiving communion and less directly to measures of socioeconomic status and ethn…

  • Higher Education and the Family Normative Beliefs of Catholic Women

    Raymond H Potvin, Charles F WestoffARTICLESociological Analysis1967

    To what extent does the family-belief system of Catholic women in Catholic colleges differ from that of Catholic woman in non-sectarian institutions? If differences exist are they due to selectivity or to the influence of the college itself? These questions are answered by a study of approximately 6,700 Catholic women in a probability sample of 45 colleges and universities throughout the United States. Although not without qualification, the main…

  • Social Factors in Catholic Women's Choice of a College

    Raymond H Potvin, Charles F WestoffARTICLESociological Analysis1967

    This study of approximately 6,500 Catholic college women in 45 institutions randomly selected throughout the United States attempts to discover those factors related to their choice of a specific type of college. The major finding is that high school graduates who go on to college choose a Catholic institution if their previous education was Catholic and a nonsectarian institution if it was not. Religiousness of the parents and the extent to whic…

  • Higher Education, Religion and Women's Family-Size Orientations

    Charles F Westoff, Raymond H PotvinARTICLEAmerican Sociological Review1966Citada por: 14

    Is the high fertility of Catholic women who have attended Catholic institutions of higher education primarily a consequence of that experience or a reflection of selectivity for other characteristics relevant to family formation? Does a non-sectarian education diminish the number of children desired by women of all religious groups? These questions are answered by a study of nearly fifteen thousand women in a probability sample of 45 colleges and…
