Main Article Content
The present research, based on data from the Americas Barometer 2018, examines how religiosity and fertility influence social conservatism in Colombia. It investigates the correlation between attendance and the importance of religion in personal life, and the number of children, with conservative attitudes. Findings indicate that religious individuals are more likely to exhibit higher levels of conservatism, which intensifies with more frequent religious service attendance. Furthermore, family size impacts conservative stances, particularly within religious contexts, though the effect varies depending on the strength of religious conviction and the number of children.
