Abstract:
The Theme for the 2019 CPA Convention is Psychology's Contribution to Society.
40% of Canadian-born, 55% of immigrants to Canada before 1982, and 57% of immigrants to Canada between 1982 to 2001, rated religion as "very important" (Statistics Canada, 2002). Religion informs the standards against which people self-evaluate and self-regulate. Thus, parent-to-parent differences in religious commitment may influence children's self-conscious emotional development.
