Wallace, John M., Jr.; Forman, Tyrone A.; Caldwell, Cleopatra H.; Willis, Deborah S.
Youth & Society, v35 n1 p98-125 Sep 2003
Used large nationally representative samples of 8th, 10th, and 12th graders to examine current patterns, recent trends, and sociodemographic correlates of religiosity among U.S adolescents. Approximately 60 percent of teens considered religion important, with half regularly attending religious services and most reporting affiliation with a specific religion. Results did not confirm the notion that religion is on the decline among U.S. youth. (SM)
