New article on what happened to religion, and the measurement of religion, during the pandemic: academic.oup.com/socrel/adva… We (@_SeanBock @MikeHoutNY) show the apparent decline in the highest levels of religiosity in the 2021 GSS, which moved online, was due to non-response bias.

I don't work as much in this area but still have an active soc of religion textbook & am a former editor of @SORJournal , so I am very excited at the appointment of @TitusHjelm as Editor. Having an international editor (from Norway) will be great.

A new paper outlines how promoting conflict b/w science & religion is a group-binding behavior for science graduate students. The problem? This bad for science communication. Most Americans are religious & religion is linked with things scientists really care about. 1/9
FREE TO READ This analysis of original survey data finds that among US graduate students the "religion-science conflict" serves as a way to express solidarity with a group that is central to their identity. academic.oup.com/socrel/arti…

Interesting work by an ISSR Fellow here.
Using surveys of college students in their 1st & then 4th years, John Evans finds that it isn't science that secularizes. Rather, majors focused on inquiry--as opposed to knowledge application--are more likely to secularize. academic.oup.com/socrel/arti…

Although the pluralism of city life can lead to secularization, it also supports religious subcultures: for example, urban walkability allows for more interaction among coreligionists. Read Audra Dugandzic’s article on theorizing place characteristics in the study of religion!
ADVANCE ACCESS How does place influence and get shaped by religion? One example is how urbanicity provides affordances which can allow for the creation of religious amenities that support religious practice. oxfordjournals.altmetric.com…
