Abstract
This article examines a complex pattern of association between prejudice and dimensions of religious behavior found in a national sample of Catholics. Three alternate approaches are tested—Allport's, Rokeach's, and Glock and Stark's. The findings show that the dimensions of religious behavior which Allport and Rokeach suggest are associated positively with prejudice and are associated in the hypothesized direction. The findings are in some ways contradictory to those of Glock and Stark. The major requirement of future research is presented as a more adequate understanding of religious behavior.
