The present study investigates whether social networks mediate the well-established positive association between religiosity and health behaviour. Most research has focused on traditional public religiosity (e.g. regular church attendance). This study, however, focuses on the Danish population in which non-traditional and private religiosity is common. We utilise data from the Danish population-based project, Early Detection and Prevention. Our results suggest that religiosity is linked to health behaviour; however, this association is not mediated by social network.
本研究旨在探讨社交网络是否在宗教信仰与健康行为之间的已有正向关联中起到中介作用。大多数研究都集中在传统的公共宗教信仰（例如定期去教堂做礼拜）上。然而，本研究关注的是丹麦这样的国家，在那里，非传统的和私人的宗教信仰很常见。我们利用了丹麦基于人群的早期发现与预防项目的数据。我们的结果表明，宗教信仰与健康行为有关；然而，这种关联不受社交网络的影响。
