这项研究利用了来自英国四个国家的 11,809 名 13 至 15 岁学生提供的数据，探讨了人们对科学反驳《圣经》记载 odf 创造这一观点的认同程度，并探讨了五组变量预测个人对该观点反应差异的能力。这五组变量是个人因素、心理因素、宗教因素、态度因素（包括“科学原教旨主义”，被理解为对科学无误性的夸大、不加批判和无条件的信念）和神学因素（区分不同的隐含宗教神学）。块多元回归表明，个人、心理、宗教和神学因素都具有显着的影响力，但最大的差异是由态度变量解释的。当在模型中评估五组变量时，会考虑 25% 的方差。科学与宗教之间更大的不相容性与科学原教旨主义（beta = .37，p < .001）、反宗教态度（beta = .16，p < .001）和无神论（beta = .07，p < .001）有关。这些发现表明，不合格地相信科学的年轻人对宗教更加不信任。
This study drew on data provided by 11,809 13- to 15-year-old students drawn from the four nations of the UK to explore the level of agreement with the view that science disproves the biblical account odf creation, and to explore the power of five sets of variables to predict individual differences in responses to that opinion. The five sets of variables were personal factors, psychological factors, religious factors, attitudinal factors (including 'scientific fundamentalism', understood as an exaggerated, uncritical, and unqualified belief in the inerrancy of science), and theological factors (distinguishing between differing implied theologies of religion). Blockwise multiple regression demonstrated that personal, psychological, religious, and theological factors all held significant power, but that the greatest variance was explained by the attitudinal variables. When the five sets of variables were assessed within the model, 25% of the variance was accounted for. Greater incompatibility between science and religion was associated with scientific fundamentalism (beta = .37, p < .001), with anti-religious attitude (beta = .16, p < .001), and with atheism (beta = .07, p < .001). These findings suggest that young people who believe in science in an unqualified way are more distrustful of religion.
