尽管之前的学术研究已经研究了宗教参与与广泛的家庭结果之间的关系，但宗教与婚外性行为之间的关系仍然没有得到充分研究。作者调查了宗教信仰、参与和圣经信仰如何解释自我报告的婚姻不忠的差异。本研究考察了 1991-2004 年综合社会调查的数据，发现宗教因素与婚姻不忠的可能性有关。去教堂和信仰圣经都与自我报告不忠的可能性较低有关。此外，作者发现婚姻不忠的几率存在很大的宗派差异，特别是在那些与自己的宗教团体有密切关系的人中。
Although previous scholarship has examined the relationship between religious involvement and a wide range of family outcomes, the relationship between religion and extramarital sexual behavior remains understudied. The authors investigate how religious affiliation, participation, and biblical beliefs explain differences in self-reported marital infidelity. This study examines data from the 1991-2004 General Social Surveys and finds that religious factors are associated with the likelihood of marital infidelity. Both church attendance and biblical beliefs are associated with lower odds of self-reported infidelity. Additionally, the authors find substantial denominational variations in the odds of marital infidelity, particularly among those who strongly affiliate with their religious group.
