我们发现，归属于宗教团体的社区社会资本比例与吸烟者消费的卷烟数量呈强烈负相关。我们没有发现总体社区社会资本或归因于宗教团体的社区社会资本比例与总体吸烟率有关。使用一种新的有效的社区社会资本测量方法，Petris社会资本指数和美国39369名成年人的三年（1998-2000）数据，我们估计了一个包含以下控制因素的两部分需求模型：社区层面的固定效应、价格（包括消费税）、家庭收入、走私指标、禁烟法规、教育、婚姻状况、性别、年龄和种族/民族。版权所有(c) 2006约翰威利父子有限公司
We show that the proportion of community social capital attributable to religious groups is inversely and strongly related to the number of cigarettes that smokers consume. We do not find overall community social capital or the proportion of community social capital attributable to religious groups to be related to the overall prevalence of smoking. Using a new validated measure of community social capital, the Petris Social Capital Index and three years (1998-2000) of US data on 39369 adults, we estimate a two-part demand model incorporating the following controls: community-level fixed effects, price (including excise taxes), family income, a smuggling indicator, nonsmoking regulations, education, marital status, sex, age, and race/ethnicity.
