Sisällön kuvaus

The survey contains questions about church and religion. The respondents were asked whether they were members of a church, and if they were members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, had they ever thought about resigning from it. Furthermore, the respondents were asked how often they participated in various religious ceremonies or activities, such as church services, communions, church concerts, revival meetings, or field trips, and how often they prayed, read the bible/a Christian magazine, or followed religious programmes on television or in the radio. The respondents were also asked whether they believed in the existence of God, in biblical miracles, and in some other ecclesiastical teachings. Their opinions about the liturgical reform, freedom of religion in Finland, and the afterlife were canvassed. The respondents were asked to estimate how significant the various reasons for being a member of the church were to them, and who in Finland should be responsible for graveyard maintenance.

Furthermore, they were asked whether they had been subjected to religious threats, demands, or sanctions, or discriminated against because of their religious convictions during the past year. They were finally presented with a list of duties belonging to the Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Church and its congregations, and asked to estimate how well the church and its congregations have fulfilled these obligations.

Background variables included the respondent's age, sex, education, professional group, income group, province of residence, and type of municipality of residence.

Otantamenetelmä

Probability: Multistage

The sample was drawn in three stages. In the first stage, the number of subjects required by the survey was regionally divided by provinces. In the second stage, the number of subjects was further subdivided within each province by the type of municipality. Municipality type was determined in two different ways: city municipalities were divided into large and small cities according to their population size, and rural municipalities into three groups based on the occupational structure of the population. The survey municipalities were representatively selected on the basis of the forementioned strata. In the third stage, starting points (addresses) were selected in each municipality. The number of starting point was based on the population size. The interviews were conducted by using the random-walk method. Six interviews were made starting from each of the randomly selected starting points. In each household, one member corresponding to the age and gender eligibility criteria was chosen for the interview.
