尽管有压倒性的相反证据，在美国，特别是在政治精英中，流行的看法仍然认为，宗教穆斯林反对美国的民主传统和价值观。虽然许多研究发现美国穆斯林的清真寺出席率和公民参与之间存在积极关系，但经验和理论上的困惑仍然存在。缺少的是研究宗教信仰的多维概念之间的关系，以及这是如何与美国穆斯林对美国政治制度的公众舆论和态度相关联的。通过对美国穆斯林进行的一项独特的全国性调查，我们发现宗教信仰、行为和归属感与美国民主传统的兼容性之间存在着积极的关系。很简单，最虔诚的人最有可能相信美国的政治一体化。
Abstract Despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary, popular perceptions in the United States, especially among political elites, continue to believe that religious Muslims oppose American democratic traditions and values. While many studies find positive relationships between mosque attendance and civic participation among U.S. Muslims, an empirical and theoretical puzzle continues to exist. What is missing is research that examines the relationships between the multi-dimensional concept of religiosity and how this is associated with public opinion and attitudes towards the American political system among Muslim Americans. Using a unique national survey of Muslim Americans, we find a positive relationship between religious beliefs, behavior, and belonging and perceptions of compatibility with American democratic traditions. Quite simply, the most religious are the most likely to believe in political integration in the United States.
