Sisällön kuvaus

The study charted the use of statistics in church development as well as the availability and usability of statistics on church activities and membership. The respondents were asked how they participated in compiling statistics in their parish and where they searched for information on parish operations and finances. A number of statements about church statistics were presented.

The respondents were also asked for what the church statistics were used and requested to name the three most important statistics in their work. Statistical analyses and reports needed by the respondents were surveyed as well as the effect of parish mergers on the compiling of statistics.

Background variables included the respondent's occupational group, place and line of work, age group, gender, years worked for the Church, and supervisory position as well as the diocese, size of the parish, and whether the parish belonged to a parish union.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

Open-ended variables q5e_avo (use of church statistics), q10_avo (occupational group), q11_avo (line of work), and q14_Avo (place of work) were removed to prevent identification. Some categories were combined for the variable charting the occupational group. Person names were removed from variable q2f_avo, exact occupations were removed from variable q7j, and a sentence constituting a risk of identification was removed from the feedback (q20). Edits and omissions by FSD are marked with [square brackets].
