Abstract

Although religion and crime occupies a relatively small space in contemporary criminological research, religious beliefs, and practices are central to classical social theory. This study uses fixed effects models to analyze three waves of panel data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health to examine the relationship between a multidimensional measure of religiosity and several forms of delinquency. The results indicate that the relationship between religiosity and delinquency is offense-specific. While religiosity is inversely related to substance use in the presence of social bonds and predictors of delinquency, its relationship with non-violent delinquency is mixed. Finally, religiosity is not associated with violent offending. The results suggest that renewed interest in religion among criminologists is warranted.

宗教信仰与犯罪之间的变量关联
虽然宗教和犯罪在当代犯罪学研究中占有相对较小的空间,但宗教信仰和实践是古典社会理论的核心。本研究使用固定效应模型来分析来自国家青少年到成人健康纵向研究的三波面板数据,以检验宗教虔诚度的多维测量与几种形式的犯罪之间的关系。结果表明,宗教信仰与犯罪之间的关系是特定于犯罪的。虽然在社会纽带和犯罪预测因素存在的情况下,宗教信仰与物质使用呈负相关,但它与非暴力犯罪的关系是复杂的。最后,宗教信仰与暴力犯罪无关。研究结果表明,犯罪学家对宗教重新产生兴趣是有道理的。
