Sisällön kuvaus

Main themes of the Finnish Youth Survey 2023 included beliefs and spirituality. The survey explores young people's beliefs, behaviour and their perceptions of meaning in everyday life.

First, the respondents were asked about their feelings regarding daily life and their views on society. They were also asked whether they are part of a church or religious community. Additionally, respondents were asked about prayer habits, the religiosity of their childhood home and their own beliefs. The questionnaire also explored what participants considered to give life meaning. Next, the respondents' world and life views were explored through various statements, as well as their perceptions of science. Experiences of uncertainty and insecurity were also addressed.

Next, respondents were asked to answer questions related to schools and educational institutions. These included topics such as the use of religious symbols and the visibility of religion and other beliefs in the school environment. Finally, the survey concluded with questions about the participants' well-being and daily life. The questions concerned topics such as minority group membership and financial situation of the household.

Background variables included, among others, the respondent's gender, age, region of residence, mother tongue, marital status, financial situation, economic activity, education level and household composition.

Otantamenetelmä

Mixed probability and non-probability

Statistics Finland's population data as of December 31, 2021, was used to design the samples. The samples were stratified by dividing the population into subsets based on age (15-19, 20-24, 25-29), registered gender (male, female), native language (Finnish, Swedish, other) and county of residence. The sample sizes were weighted using the respondent data from the 2020 Finnish Youth Survey.

The data was collected through two methods: telephone interviews and an online questionnaire. For the online questionnaire, 6,001 contacts were extracted from the Population Information System, while 66,481 contacts were extracted for the telephone interviews. A total of 1,001 people participated in the telephone interviews. Personal invitations to complete the online questionnaire were sent by post, resulting in 648 responses. Additional efforts were made to reach non-respondents to the online questionnaire by telephone. A further 82 respondents were reached by this hybrid method.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

During the test interviews, it became clear that the telephone interview form would have to be shortened. However, the online form was not shortened. Those who completed the online questionnaire therefore answered more questions than those who were interviewed by telephone. The deleted questions are indicated in cursive on the questionnaire.

In question K14, an error has occurred and respondents have not been given the option to answer "neither agree nor disagree" as shown on the questionnaire.

To prevent identification of respondents, the researcher has removed variables containing open-ended responses to the response option "Other, please specify" from the data.

To prevent identification of respondents, municipality and variables containing open-ended responses to the response option 'Other, please specify' related to questions T9 and T12 were removed from the data at FSD. In addition, the smallest religious groups were categorised into category 'Muu' in variable Q14.

The original dataset contained 1811 responses, of which 1590 were archived at FSD. Respondents who did not give their consent for archiving have been removed from the data by the researcher.
