- Summary
- The Notre Dame Study of Catholic Parish Life attempts to describe Catholic parishes in the United States roughly twenty years after the reforms of the Second Vatican Council. Beyond the broad descriptive sample of all U.S. parishes, its contextual sampling design permits the scholar to examine both laity, and ordained and non-ordained leadership in various types of parishes. It yields data on participation and organizational involvement, styles of religiosity, church-related attitudes, civic involvement and sociopolitical attitudes, organizational designs and decision-making, and liturgical experience and satisfaction. This is the parishioner component within the series of studies. "This comprehensive study was an attempt to understand contemporary parish life and the attitudes and behaviors of presumably the most active Catholics, namely, registered parishioners." (Leege and Welch 1989:143).
