I used to be a minister and was curious why clergy feel dissatisfied with their jobs and consider leaving ministry.
I identified three key predictors: feeling uncared for by one’s congregation, poor mental health, and, perhaps unsurprisingly, religious doubts.

The PRRI(@prripoll.bsky.social) public fellows met in DC last week to learn more about doing research on religion that makes a public impact.
I highly recommend PRRI's Public Fellows Program and suggest applying again if you don't get it the first time (I applied a few times before being selected).

Our study on religiosity during the pandemic was just assigned an issue: academic.oup.com/socrel/artic...
We show how a switch to web surveys during COVID-19 skewed estimates, creating a misleading illusion of rapid religious decline driven by nonresponse bias among the most religious.
