title: Transmission of Religious Values: Relations Between Parents' and Daughters' Beliefs.
abstract: Sixty-two White, middle-class, undergraduate women (mean age = 21.1 years) and their parents participated in a study on the transmission of religious beliefs. Accuracy of daughters' perceptions of their parents' beliefs was found to be related to how frequently parents talked about their beliefs and to mother-father agreement on beliefs. Daughters' perceptions of the warmth of the parent-child relationship were related to the agreement between daughters' beliefs and their perceptions of parents' beliefs. The relation between parents' beliefs and daughters' beliefs was mediated by daughters' perceptions of their parents' beliefs.
