Gender differences in worship attendance vary across religious groups"},"content":{"rendered":"<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pew Research Center data on frequency of attendance at worship services are available in 81 countries, where an average of 48% of men and 42% of women report attending worship services at least once a week. However, the pattern of attendance varies considerably across these countries:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In 23 of the 81 nations, men and women are about equally likely to attend services weekly.<\/li>\n<li>In 30 countries, women are more likely than men to report attending services weekly. Most of these countries have Christian majorities or large Christian populations.<\/li>\n<li>In 28 other countries, men are more likely than women to report attending services weekly, often by large margins. In Afghanistan, for example, the share of men attending services at least once a week exceeds the share of women by 84 percentage points; in Pakistan the margin is 72 points and in Bangladesh it is 66 points. Muslims make up a large share of the population in all of these countries except for Israel, the only country in the world with a majority Jewish population.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This distinctive pattern at the country level is largely explained by religious norms that prioritize male participation in Muslim and Jewish worship services. In most Islamic societies, Muslim men are expected to attend communal Friday midday prayers in the mosque. Women, however, can fulfill the Friday prayers obligation individually, either inside or outside the mosque. Likewise, the Orthodox Jewish tradition does not count women as part of a minyan (at least 10 men needed to hold a service). When Muslim and Orthodox Jewish women do attend communal worship services, they often pray separately from men.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although Muslim and Orthodox Jewish men are expected to attend worship services, attendance may still be a valid indicator of men\u2019s religiousness. On the other hand, the fact that women do not attend as frequently or participate as fully as men in some countries does not necessarily mean they are less pious. Indeed, as discussed in the <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2016\/03\/22\/women-report-praying-daily-at-higher-rates-than-men\">next chapter<\/a>, Muslim women and men are about equally likely to report that they pray at least once a day.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2016\/03\/22\/gender-differences-in-worship-attendance-vary-across-religious-groups\/pf_2016-03-22_gender-02-01\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-25312\"><img data-dominant-color=\"e9e7e6\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #e9e7e6;\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"(max-width: 310px) 100vw, 310px\" class=\"wp-image-25312 not-transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pewresearch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2016\/03\/PF_2016.03.22_gender-02-01.png\" alt=\"Attendance patterns for men and women vary across 81 countries\"><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pew Research Center has data specifically on Muslim attendance patterns in 39 countries. In most of them, Muslims are the largest religious group in the population. Across these 39 countries, a much larger share of Muslim men (70%) than women (42%) report attending services weekly, an average gender gap of 28 points.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among Muslims in the United States, the gender gap in attendance is smaller than the average gap across all 39 countries: 57% of U.S. Muslim men attend weekly compared with 37% of U.S. Muslim women, a 20-point gap.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2016\/03\/22\/gender-differences-in-worship-attendance-vary-across-religious-groups\/pf_2016-03-22_gender-02-02\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-25313\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-25313\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pewresearch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2016\/03\/PF_2016.03.22_gender-02-02.png\" alt=\"Among Muslims, men attend worship services more often than women in most countries\"><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among Christians, a different pattern emerges. Across the 53 countries with enough Christian respondents to analyze data on attendance, 53% of Christian women and 46% of Christian men say they attend services at least once a week, an average difference of 7 percentage points. In 28 of these 53 countries, notably larger shares of Christian women than men attend worship services weekly. The largest differences are in Colombia and Italy (which have 20- and 19-point gender gaps, respectively). In 25 of the 53 countries, Christians of both genders are equally likely to regularly attend services.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2016\/03\/22\/gender-differences-in-worship-attendance-vary-across-religious-groups\/pf_2016-03-22_gender-02-03\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-25314\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-25314\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pewresearch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2016\/03\/PF_2016.03.22_gender-02-03.png\" alt=\"Among Christians, women attend worship services more often than men in many countries\"><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are no countries where Christian men are significantly more likely than Christian women to attend services weekly.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/?attachment_id=25317\"><img data-dominant-color=\"f4f5f3\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #f4f5f3;\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"(max-width: 310px) 100vw, 310px\" class=\"wp-image-25317 not-transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.pewresearch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2016\/03\/PF_2016.03.22_gender-02-04.png\" alt=\"Few gender differences in worship service attendance for other religious groups, except among Jews in Israel and unaffiliated U.S.\"><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Israel and the United States together hold about 80% of the world\u2019s Jewish population and they are the two countries with sufficient numbers of Jews to analyze differences in men\u2019s and women\u2019s attendance at worship services.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Israel, the share of Jewish men who report attending services weekly is 19 percentage points larger than the share of women who say they attend weekly. This pattern among <em>all<\/em> Jews is driven primarily by adherents of the Orthodox tradition, who compose roughly 22% of adult Israeli Jews. Indeed, when the gender gap is calculated separately by Jewish subgroups in Israel, men attend more than women among self-identified Orthodox Jews (Haredi and Dati) and traditional Jews (Masorti Jews, who make up 29% of adult Israeli Jews).[18. numoffset=&#8221;18&#8243; For more information on differences among Israeli subgroups, see Pew Research Center\u2019s 2016 report\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2016\/03\/08\/israels-religiously-divided-society\/\">\u201cIsrael\u2019s Religiously Divided Society<\/a>.\u201d]<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among American Jews, the share of men who attend services weekly is 3 percentage points larger than the share of women who attend weekly, a gender gap that is not statistically significant in this case.[19. U.S. figures come from Pew Research Center\u2019s 2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/religion\/2013\/10\/01\/jewish-american-beliefs-attitudes-culture-survey\/\">survey of the U.S. Jewish population<\/a>.]\nThere are only a small number of countries for which Pew Research Center has data on a large enough number of Hindus and Buddhists to permit analysis of the gender gap in attendance.[20. All analyses in this report are based on a minimum sample size of 300 respondents (men and women combined) for each religious group considered in each country.]\u00a0This study finds no significant gender differences among Hindus in the United States.
