Having an Anglican affiliation is known to be associated with support for leaving the European Union (EU) in Britain. Religiosity, conceived as strength of religious attachment, has received comparatively little treatment. We investigate religiosity via electoral, household, and attitudinal surveys, distinguishing the effects of “behaving” and “believing.” The association between religiosity and EU Referendum vote choice and position is identified before and after inclusion of values, attitudinal, and civic engagement measures. Consistent with established findings, in socio‐structural models Anglicans are more likely to support Brexit than religious Nones. More frequent church attendance is associated with being more pro‐Remain. The Anglican effect is primarily mediated by anti‐immigrant attitudes, authoritarianism, and salience of ethnic identity, suggesting a Christian nationalist aspect to Leave support. The attendance effect is mediated by warmer attitudes toward immigrants, and social capital. Notably, those exhibiting stronger orthodox belief tend to feature a stronger attachment to “Leave,” with this partly mediated by authoritarianism. To evaluate the net effect of religion on civic life, we should pay more attention to the cultural content of religious beliefs, and how they structure other values and attitudes.

归属感、信仰、行为和英国退欧：支持离开欧盟的宗教信仰和宗教认同的渠道*

众所周知，拥有英国圣公会与支持在英国离开欧盟（EU）有关。宗教信仰被认为是宗教依恋的力量，但相对较少受到对待。我们通过选举、家庭和态度调查来调查宗教信仰，区分“行为”和“信仰”的影响。在纳入价值观、态度和公民参与措施之前和之后，确定了宗教信仰与欧盟公投投票选择和立场之间的关联。与既定调查结果一致，在社会结构模型中，英国国教徒比宗教无教派更有可能支持英国退欧。更频繁的教堂出席与更支持留欧有关。英国国教效应主要是由反移民态度、威权主义和种族认同的显着性介导的，建议基督教民族主义方面离开支持。出勤效应是由对移民和社会资本的热情态度介导的。值得注意的是，那些表现出更强烈正统信仰的人往往对“离开”有更强烈的依恋，这在一定程度上是由威权主义介导的。为了评估宗教对公民生活的净影响，我们应该更多地关注宗教信仰的文化内容，以及它们如何构建其他价值观和态度。
