“…Regarding age, the findings revealed that older people were more likely to have more children than younger individuals. In addition to a longer life span, older people have been long acknowledged as having higher religiosity and greater conformity to religious values than younger people (Shulgin et al, 2019). Therefore, older individuals who complied with religious values encouraging pronatalist behaviors were more likely to have more children.…”

This paper aimed to examine the effect of religious affiliation and religiosity on the fertility rate. While scholars have predicted the decline of religion’s influence, practice, and role in modern societies, religion still plays a vital role in shaping individuals’ behavior, including their fertility behavior. While there have been many studies on the role of religion on fertility, few studies have compared the fertility rates among people from different religious affiliations and their practices of religiosity. Additionally, cross-national analyses of the fertility rate of religious individuals who live as a majority or minority in various countries are still limited. Drawing from the World Value Survey data and using OLS regression to examine interaction and socialization, and minority-status approaches to the relationship between religion and fertility behaviors, this study revealed that Muslims are more likely to have a higher number of children among the explored religions. In terms of religiosity, those who are more religious, from all religious affiliations, demonstrated the same likelihood of having high fertility. Additionally, while both ritual and belief dimensions of religiosity are significantly associated with a high fertility rate for all religious affiliations, all dimensions of religiosity had significant effects on fertility for Muslims. Furthermore, Muslim and Christian minorities were likely to have lower fertility rates than their counterparts with majority status.

“…This is supported by Corcoran, Pettinicchio & Robbins (2012) that belief in God will encourage moral behavior and discourage immorality. Shulgin, Zinkina & Korotayev (2019) concluded that the majority of OECD countries with high incomes had fewer religious individuals. Voas & Chaves (2016) argue that American religiosity has declined over the past several decades.…”

“…The participants were informed about the aim of the research and were assured of anonymity and voluntary participation in the study. The research was cross-sectional due to the fact that the influence of the historical cohort was small (Shulgin, Zinkina, Korotayev, 2019;Bengtson, Silverstien, Putney, Harris, 2015). The authors used exploratory-critical interview on the development of religious morality in adults, which is based on Walesa's (2005) cognitive-developmental model of integral religiosity development.…”

As a result of the study, the structure of religious morality including the following categories was distinguished: basis of moral functioning, moral attitude toward conflict situations, moral attitude toward experienced dissonances, and reference to the principle of moral autonomy. For the basis of moral functioning, the following subcategories were identified: Self, others, religion, consequences. For the moral attitude to conflict situations, the subcategories were: task-oriented, avoidant, emotional, religious. For the moral attitude toward experienced dissonances, the categories were: informational-religious, normative, avoidant, conflictual. With respect to the principle of moral autonomy, these were: congruence and incongruence. The participants of the study were 120 people of the Catholic faith, 60 each in middle and late adulthood. A Piagetian exploratory-critical interview was used, the design of which was based on Walesa's model of religiosity. The frequency of specific subcategories of religious morality was significantly differentiated by the age of the subjects for the basis of moral functioning, moral attitude toward conflict situations, and moral attitude toward experienced dissonance. In late adulthood, religiosity serves an important function - especially in situations of conflict or events related to experienced moral dissonances.
