| Итог: | The effects of United Presbyterian civil rights pronouncements upon elders' attitudes and behaviors are explored by an analysis of the responses by 3212 elders to a 72-item questionnaire distributed nationwide in the fall of 1967. A speculative argument is developed, due to the lack of longitudinal data: church statements on civil rights issues at least partly overcome the mechanism of selective exposure, which is assumed to be generally functioning, positively affecting some elders otherwise lacking civil rights information. Elders who report being affected by the policy statements are more familiar with the statements, more liberal on civil rights, and more likely to report participating in civil rights activities. The need for further research on the consequential dimension of religiosity is stressed. |
