Using data collected from married couples in Moscow in 1996, this paper explores the relationships of religious belief and religious identification with gender egalitarianism, attitude toward divorce, marital quality, and thoughts of divorce. Effects of couple’s religious homogamy are also investigated. Some evidence is found to support the existence of the relationship of individual’s religious belief or affiliation with the dependent variables, particularly attitude toward divorce. There is also support for the effect of religious homogamy on these variables. Both husband and wives who are in marriages where both spouses belief in God report higher quality and a less accepting attitude toward divorce. For wives, religious belief homogamy is associated with all four dependent variables. 2006-07-17 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1147212472 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1147212472 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
