虽然以前的文献已经从几个角度处理了宗教性，非物质性和社会资本，只有少数实证研究集中在这三个维度的联系。本研究旨在通过纳入各种形式的宗教信仰和社会资本来补充文献。使用调查数据（N = 1，038），本文调查了四个志愿者群体（教会志愿者，在教会和其他背景下的志愿者，非教会志愿者，nonvolunteers），并回答了三个问题：他们的社会人口和宗教背景如何不同，宗教信仰如何影响属于这些群体的概率，以及这些群体在社会资本方面有何不同？文章指出，宗教信仰影响四个志愿者群体之间的选择，这些群体保持不同类型的社会资本。
Although previous literature has dealt with religiosity, voluntarism, and social capital from several angles, only a few empirical studies have focused on this tri-dimensional linkage. This research aims to add to the literature by including various forms of religiosity and social capital. Using survey data (N = 1,038), this article investigates four volunteer groups (church volunteers, volunteers in both church and other contexts, non-church volunteers, nonvolunteers) and answers three questions: How do their sociodemographic and religious backgrounds differ, how does religiosity affect the probability of belonging to these groups, and how do these groups differ in regard to their social capital? The article indicates that religiosity affects choosing between the four volunteer groups and that these groups maintain different kinds of social capital.
