Abstract
- This article presents information on the Religious Research Association (RRA) 2005 Annual Meeting titled "Congregations, Denominations and Research on Religion: Promoting Cooperation," to be held at the Hyatt Regency in Rochester, New York on November 4-6, 2005. Although the behavioral study of religion now extends far beyond the narrow study of religious organizations, RRA was established, in part, to focus on denominational research. While denominational researchers often collect data to answer practical questions, many academic researchers are unaware that these same data sources could address a broad range of more general theoretical questions. The meeting encourages papers on any topic related to the behavioral study of religion. Examples of possible papers and sessions on denominational data sources includes: denominational Web pages as a source of data; survey data collected by denominations; congregational yearbook data collected by denominations; pitfalls and solutions in working with denominational data; and availability of denominationally collected data.
