In particular, I examine the relationship between the presence of clergywomen or egalitarian leadership policies and a congregation\u2019s participation in political activism related to three so-called \u201cwomen\u2019s issues\u201d: abortion, LGBT rights, and poverty. Statistical analysis using Linear Probability Models and Logit models reveals partial support for my hypotheses. Collective gender representation, as demonstrated through the presence of egalitarian leadership policies within a congregation, is associated with activism related to pro-LGBT rights and poverty. This project serves to extend understanding of 1) how descriptive gender representation relates to the substantive representation of women\u2019s interests in religious congregations and 2) the comparability of women\u2019s leadership across political and religious contexts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Academic Affiliation: University at Albany, SUNY Title: Clergywomen, Women\u2019s Ordination, and \u201cWomen\u2019s Issues\u201d: Women\u2019s Representation in American Religious Congregations Abstract: Using data from the 2018-2019 National Congregations Study, I explore the relationship between women\u2019s descriptive and substantive representation in American religious congregations.
