http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/367671044

Explains that behavior that characterizes individuals is influenced by the environment the person is raised in. Asserts that regional attitudes affect personal attitudes and characteristics, but not religious practices. Compares Sabbath observance of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in two regions: Utah, where the regional culture is largely influenced by the high concentration of Church members, and coastal southern California, where the culture is influenced by the surfing industry. Identifies California culture as relaxed and Utah culture as conservative. Concludes that there are more similarities than differences in religious practices among members of the Church from the two regions.
