Previous studies of Catholic and Protestant achievement aspirations have provided mixed support for the fusion of white Christians into one homogeneous group. Using three-wave panel data for Catholic and non-Catholic high school students (N=287), homogeneity in levels and changes in levels of relative income expectations were examined. Within each religious group males were hypothesized to have higher expectations, to be more likely to raise expectations over time, and to be less likely to lower expectations over time than females. The results indicated mixed support for the hypothesized Catholic and non-Catholic homogeneity. While males were remarkably similar both in levels and in changes in levels over time, Catholic females had higher expectations than non-Catholic females for one wave. Non-Catholic females were about twice as likely as Catholic females to inake upward shifts in expectations, and about three times as likely to make downward shifts. While previous studies have used level homogeneity as evidence that religious groups are fusing into one homogeneous group, the results of this study point to the necessity of considering process differences
