Northern California Church Member Study, 1963

📖 The Scoop

This data collection contains survey data on 2,871 church members residing in the San Francisco Bay area in 1963. The main research objective of the study was to assess the degree to which certain interpretations of Christian faith may continue to be a source of contemporary anti-Semitism. The primary focus of the questionnaire was the examination of respondents' religious knowledge, activities, beliefs, experiences, and intergroup relations, as well as their attitudes toward other religious and cultural groups, specifically Jews. In addition, they were asked their opinion on the appropriateness of denominations taking stands on current social and political issues and were questioned on their religious background and the role that religion played in their lives. Personal data were also solicited, including other organizational memberships, television viewing, book reading habits, political affiliation, occupation, education, marital status, number of children, sex, and race. The file also includes 48 derived measures ... Cf. : http://webapp.icpsr.umich.edu/cocoon/ICPSR-STUDY/07590.xml.
