I want to examine the importance of religious beliefs. Use your class text as the major source for information on your topic, where possible. You could use library sources, even journals in the library, as a professional paper would do, but that can be quite involved and is more than expected for this exercise . Cite sources using an acceptable professional formatting style. Where relevant and possible, summarize agreements and disagreements in available resources.
Religious beliefs are important correlates of behaviors and attitudes.
Summarize the ideas you have found and cite sources. Briefly state why your hypothesis should be correct in terms of your expectations derived from number two. Whichever hypothesis you make be sure your reader understands why you believe this to be the case. The data was gathered using a face to face interview. Be sure to specify the population and sample.
