Abstract
SummaryAmong a sample of 601 married men, whose wives are in the reproductive ages, religious affliation is strongly related to opinions about the permissibility of abortion under varied circumstances and Canadian abortion law. Education and other influences are altered when the effects of religion are included but some differentials persist within religious groupings. These suggest that secular trends towards increasing levels of education may tend to narrow religious-based differentials in abortion attitudes. An association of permissive attitudes towards abortion with use of highly effective contraceptive methods and with prior use of abortion is found.
