About this book

"Based on a multi-question scale, the authors posit five types of religiosity (traditional, transitional, modern-social, modern-cum-economic liberalism, and 'unknown'). Interviews with 200 women of Managua (half Catholic and half Protestants [the latter of two types]) serve to place them among the five types, with comparisons made on range of attitudes and traits: class distribution, family planning and abortion, schooling, etc. Religious confessions are analyzed separately"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
