Hey sorry if I missed this.... How do you define active and less active Mormons?

Thanks for putting this together!

Thanks for checking it out! It's in the caption of the table.

Active is self-identifying Mormon and self-reporting weekly or more church attendance. Less active is self-identifying Mormon and less than weekly church attendance. Disaffiliated is reporting being "raised" Mormon, but no longer identifies as Mormon.

Ahh, thank you very much! I just finished reading your four part series. I look forward to seeing your analysis of the most recent pew survey.

I just published an initial look of the new survey on Friday actually. I am still working through some of it so some more to come, but here is a link to that: https://mormonmetrics.substack.com/p/data-update-from-the-new-2024-prls
