ABSTRACT We investigated the relationship between driving status and religious service attendance among older Americans and how the perceived importance of religion influences the relationship. Data are from the 2012 wave of the Health and Retirement Study (n = 9,660). After controlling for covariates, the odds of regular religious service attendance were reduced by 55% for non-drivers relative to active drivers among those who indicated that religion was very important in their lives. No significant association was observed in those who rated religion as somewhat/not too important. Future research should explore how non-drivers who value religion make decisions about religious service attendance.

美国老年人的驾驶状况和宗教服务出勤率

摘要 我们调查了美国老年人的驾驶状况和宗教服务出席率之间的关系，以及宗教重要性的感知如何影响这种关系。数据来自 2012 年的健康与退休研究浪潮（n = 9,660）。在控制协变量后，在那些表示宗教在他们的生活中非常重要的人中，与活跃的司机相比，非司机参加定期宗教服务的几率降低了 55%。在那些认为宗教有点/不太重要的人中没有观察到显着的关联。未来的研究应该探索重视宗教的非司机如何做出有关宗教服务出席的决定。
