  • Paranormal Beliefs, Vaccine Confidence, and COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: 111 - 143
      Abstract: Conservative religious ideologies have been linked to vaccine hesitancy. Yet, little is known about how paranormal beliefs relate to vaccine confidence and uptake. We hypothesize that paranormal beliefs will be negatively related to both confidence and uptake due to their association with lower levels of trust in science and a greater acceptance of conspiratorial beliefs. We test this hypothesis using a new nationally representative sample of U.S. adults fielded in May and June of 2021 by NORC. Using regression models with a sample of 1,734, we find that paranormal beliefs are negatively associated with general vaccine confidence, COVID-19 vaccine confidence, and COVID-19 vaccine uptake. These associations are partially or fully attenuated net of trust in science and conspiratorial belief. Although not a focus of the study, we also find that Christian nationalism’s negative association with the outcomes is fully accounted for by measures of trust in science and conspiratorial beliefs.

  • “Bring Your Straight Friends”: Anti-Gay Religious Stigma and Black and
           White LGB-Affirming Church Members

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: 144 - 163
      Abstract: This comparative study of Black and white members of LGB-affirming churches finds that race plays a major role in shaping the socio-temporal contexts in which American Protestants come to understand anti-gay religious stigma and make meaning of their affiliation to LGB-affirming churches. Through interviews with 13 Black and 14 white members of churches that actively describe themselves as affirming and inclusive of LGB people, I find that Black church members made efforts to distinguish their churches from “gay churches” and that LGB inclusion functions as a potential source of stigma for Black-affirming church members. Conversely, white respondents articulated a valuing of LGB inclusion tied to broader conceptions of inclusion and social progress. These findings suggest that Black and white Protestants encounter distinct cultural landscapes when evaluating the legitimacy and status of their religious institutions and that Black LGB-affirming church members internalize stigma related to their religious affiliations.

  • From “Civilian Clergy to Officer”: Hiring and Training Chaplains for
           Federal Government Positions

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: 164 - 189
      Abstract: This article asks how people hired into federal chaplaincy positions are trained on the job. We find that unlike those hired into positions based on education, knowledge, and skills to date, chaplains are hired—by design—without some of the skills required for the job. Employers do not expect hired chaplains to understand organizational norms and practices, and so we identify strategies like inculcation and embodiment that employers use to help chaplains integrate their religious identity with their new professional identity. Drawing on interviews and archival data, we examine the process of hiring and training for federal chaplains as a case study of religious professionals in secular and pluralistic organizational contexts. This article contributes to and bridges work between scholars of religion and scholars of work and organizations who are interested in processes of hiring and training but do not often consider the role of religion in relation to such processes.

  • The Churches They Are a Changin’: Processes of Change in Worship
           Services

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: 190 - 221
      Abstract: One of the most significant recent changes in American religious congregations is the shift toward more enthusiastic worship practices. Despite how clear and significant this trend is, the processes by which worship services have become more enthusiastic remain unclear. I address this question using linear decomposition techniques with data from the National Congregations Study—a nationally representative repeated cross-sectional survey of American religious congregations. Drawing from theories of population ecology, organizational adaptation, and institutions, I identify two distinct processes by which the population of congregations is incorporating more enthusiastic worship practices: (1) new congregations that are disproportionately nondenominational or evangelical are entering the population with highly enthusiastic worship practices, and (2) older congregations across all traditions are changing their worship to incorporate more enthusiastic practices. Because most congregations are older, the second process accounts for most of the change in the population. These findings help advance our understanding of how the population of religious congregations is changing in the 21st century.
