Data come from interviews with 14 Muslimah influencers, and a survey distributed amongst 188 self-identified followers of Muslim female influencers. Findings show that Muslimah influencers are policed by their followers, fellow modest fashion participants, and sometimes their families for prioritizing their nafs (self), violating Islamic principles of awrah (covering of private parts), and inviting their sexualization by others through the pursuit of influencer celebrity. Data show that Muslimah influencers respond to this policing through Islamic feminist Ijtihād (critical reasoning), positing their aesthetic labor as a form of dawah (proselytizing). This article argues that Muslimah influencers operate as ‘pious critical agents’ who employ Islamic feminism to broaden understandings of modesty as it operates in the lived realities of Muslim women in anti-Muslim contexts.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51390,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion","volume":"65 1","pages":"66-79"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147562760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Steensland et al.’s and Gaghan and Eagle's RELTRAD coding schemes are modified to include contested categories of nondenoms that are disaggregated by race and church attendance. Findings from the 2000–2022 General Social Surveys indicate that the coding schemes capture similar variation between Black nondenoms and members of historically Black Protestant denominational families. However, non-Black nondenoms who attend less than once a year significantly differ from followers of historically Mainline Protestant denominations, and non-Black nondenoms who attend more than once per month report more conservative religious sensibilities as well as political and social attitudes than members of historically Evangelical Protestant traditions. Such findings attest to both strengths and limitations within the RELTRAD taxonomies under analysis. Consequently, further research is needed to inform durable decisions regarding the treatment of data for non-Black nondenoms in RELTRAD. Suggestions for improvement are offered—including what now appears to be arbitrary cut-off points used to distinguish between nondenominational Protestants—in helping scholars produce more accurate statistical estimates for Protestants who do not affiliate with established traditions.","PeriodicalId":51390,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion","volume":"65 1","pages":"123-135"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jssr.70011","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147564231","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study considers one broad research question: What is the role of religion in shaping the perceived impact of motherwork-related stress on Black mothers’ well-being? To address this question, we utilized theories of motherwork, stress perspective, and vicarious racism to understand religious coping through in-depth interviews with 26 Black mothers of children in adolescence and young adulthood across the United States. Mothers in this study describe their constant need for motherwork due to anti-Black racism and their subsequent motherwork-related stress. While mothers describe anti-Black racism as looking to remove their agency, religious coping tools are a way to empower themselves. Through a Black feminist lens, this article highlights how Black mothers view their motherwork, the stress that it generates, and the importance of religious coping in the wake of this stress.","PeriodicalId":51390,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion","volume":"65 1","pages":"95-110"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jssr.70014","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147565604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, we analyze the distinct threats that immigrants and Muslims pose to groups of various religious identifications. We find that (1) Muslims are perceived as carrying an ideational threat, but not a materialist threat, and (2) immigrants are perceived as carrying a materialist threat, but not an ideational threat. Unlike the latter of these two findings, ideational threat posed by Muslims is more likely among certain religious groups relative to religiously unaffiliated respondents. We extend prior work by showing that distinct threats that different outgroups pose are determined by the respective social identifications of actors within a social field. These findings support theories of differentiated threat and provide marginal support for religious dominance theory. This article emphasizes the need for greater theoretical specification within the group threat literature.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51390,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion","volume":"65 1","pages":"49-65"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147563104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from the 2021 wave of the Baylor Religion Survey (N = 1248), we analyze the relationships between different types of Internet activity and religious outcomes. We find that time spent on online gaming is associated with a higher likelihood of holding atheist or agnostic beliefs and with lower levels of both private and public religiosity. In contrast, posting original content to social media is positively associated with personal scripture reading and religious attendance, suggesting that some forms of digital engagement may reinforce religious practices. Other activities, such as general social media use and video chatting, have no significant associations with religious commitment. Our findings suggest that the Internet and religiosity are not always at odds. Both Internet use and religion are multifaceted phenomena whose relationship varies depending on the nature of online engagement and the religious outcome in question.","PeriodicalId":51390,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion","volume":"64 3","pages":"341-353"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jssr.70005","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145038132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this mechanism may be insufficient to explain intraracial inequalities in claims-making. In this study, we draw from 17 semistructured interviews with pastors of color in the United Methodist Church to examine how racial salience affects the success of claims to leadership positions, congregational acceptance, and ordination in an antiracist organization. We find that status differences created by racial categories do not always reduce the success of these pastors’ claims. However, when pastors of color express high levels of racial salience, their claims to organizational resources are delegitimated and their presence in the denomination often becomes untenable. This study contributes to understandings of how race interacts with the claims-making process to generate inequalities, intraracial discrimination within organizations, and the limits of formal policies of antiracism.","PeriodicalId":51390,"journal":{"name":"Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion","volume":"64 3","pages":"317-327"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jssr.70002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145038131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
