The distance between the religious values of parents and those of children in Israel
Ela Luria

TL;DR
This study examines how religious values are passed from parents to children in Israeli Modern-Orthodox families and finds a consistent gap between parents and children, regardless of family type.
Contribution
The study reveals that religious value transmission leads to a consistent distance between parents and children, suggesting a secularizing effect.
Findings
Religious distance in values is consistent across both homogeneous and heterogeneous family types.
Religious parents show a gap in value transmission to children, regardless of family composition.
Effect sizes are smaller in homogeneous Modern-Orthodox families compared to mixed ones.
Abstract
Prior research into the socialization of religious values between religious parents and their children indicates that, in homogeneous religious family groups, there are similarities between the religious values of religious parents and those of their children. Research further shows that, in religious-secular heterogeneous family groups, there is a significant distance between the religious parent and their teenagers in terms of religious values.

Results of the study show that religious distance in values is not dependent on the family type (homogeneous/heterogeneous). However, it appears that, when the transmitter of religious values is a religious parent in both homogeneous and heterogeneous…
