Abstract: Previous research on charitable giving has identified a significant relationship between political conservatism and greater financial giving to charitable causes. Yet that research has not adequately explored the important role of religion in that relationship, nor differences in financial giving targets (i.e., religious congregations, noncongregational religious organizations, and nonreligious organizations).

“…Consistent with the literature (Vaidyanathan et al, 2011;Forbes and Zampelli, 1997;Will and Cochran, 1995;Ottoni-Wilhelm, 2010;Ottoni-Wilhelm et al, 2007) [12]- [16], we find an association in the maps as well as the Chi-square tests between attendance at religious services and income donated to charities. Similar associations are found between income donated to charities and inequality, supporting notions that philanthropy and inequality are related (Laskowski, 2011;Greve, 2009;Dasgupta and Kanbur, 2011) [17]- [19].…”

“…Several scholars have used dual-process frameworks to back their empirical and theoretical claims (Cerulo 2010;Escher 2013;Lizardo et al 2016;Martin and Desmond 2010;Miles 2015;Srivastava and Banaji 2011;Vaidyanathan, Hill, and Smith 2011), while others have called the sociological significance of dual-process theories of cognition into question, critiquing their practical application to empirical cases (Berezin 2014;Jerolmack and Khan 2014;Pugh 2013;Wuthnow 2011). One major limitation in this debate, however, is that sociologists making use of dual-process theories in their work often fail to provide empirical evidence from their own data specifically confirming their dual-process claims.…”
