Abstract
ABSTRACT Christian nationalism, or the belief that America should be governed as a Christian country, is an influential yet fractious political philosophy. This investigation applied relational turbulence theory to understand how (dis)agreement about Christian nationalism may shape parent-child political conversations. A sample of 452 participants completed measures assessing (a) relational turbulence theory variables and (b) their and (c) their parents’ endorsement of Christian nationalism. The study’s results indicated that participants are particularly vexed when they reject Christian nationalism but their parents do not, which is associated with less frequent and more negative political conversations, as well as heightened relationship uncertainty and relational turbulence.
