The modern landmark for the Economics of Religion is the model proposed by Azzi and
Ehrenberg in 1975 to religious frequency. This model has several empirical studies in
the literature in order to test their hypotheses. In this article, we test the hypothesis of
the model of Azzi and Ehrenberg applying an ordered logistic regression with survey
data of the Brazilian Social Research (PESB) 2004 on religious attendance. According to
our results, women tend to attend more religious services; religious frequency showed
an increase with age and is negatively correlated with income.
