Our lab operates independently and does not affiliate with any religion or form of spirituality. One example we have been studying is the rapid decline in participation in the Christian church in America. According to the Pew Research Center, “the percentage of Americans that identify as Christian is down 17% in the last decade” and “those who identify as ‘religiously unaffiliated’ is up by 12% since 2009” (Pew Research Center, 2019).

This survey will be looking at many facets of a person’s identity as well as knowledge of current events and media usage. Participation requires full consent and participants must be over 18 years of age.
