Preferences, Constraints, and Choices in Religious Markets: An Examination of Religious Switching and Apostasy
Abstract
Les AA. presentent une nouvelle perspective, developpee en sociologie des religions, qui etudie les phenomenes d'affiliation a des communautes religieuses. Celle-ci met en avant la theorie du choix rationnel. Ce paradigme tend a considerer la religion comme un marche ou les individus choisissent parmi les organisations et les individus en competition. L'affiliation religieuse est ainsi envisagee comme une forme de consommation culturelle, guidee par des preferences. Dans ce cadre les facteurs socio-economiques, les variables comme la famille ou le type d'organisation apparaissent comme centrales dans une theorie de la mobilite religieuse. Les AA. etudient comment les choix religieux sont soumis a des jeux de contraintes

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
