Abstract
ABSTRACT Growing body of academic literature indicates changing patterns of intergenerational faith transmission. We analyse empirical evidence from Lithuania to verify factors determining the transmission of faith in a family setting. We assess if parents’ religious conservatism affects the probability transfer of parents’ beliefs to their offspring. Specifically, we propose that parents holding orthodox religious beliefs face no advantage in transferring these beliefs to their children, unless they exhibit other attributes of religious conservatism. We estimate our models with data from a survey of 300 parent-child dyads in Lithuania, conducted in June 2021. Results of logistic regression analysis confirm our expectations and open new questions for future research.
