Jeynes, William H.
Education and Urban Society, v35 n1 p27-49 Nov 2002
Investigated the effects of religious schooling and personal religious commitment on African American and Hispanic students' academic achievement. Analysis of data from 15 studies indicated that religious schooling and religiosity each had a positive impact on academic achievement and school-related behavior. The effect sizes that emerged for religious schooling tended to be larger for older children. (Contains references.) (SM)
