Pew Research Center · Pew Research Center (American Trends Panel)

Wave 44 of Pew's American Trends Panel: 10,971 U.S. adults surveyed online Feb. 4-19, 2019 (full panel plus a KnowledgePanel oversample), in English and Spanish. Carries F_RELTRAD, the standard RLS-coded religious-tradition variable (Latter-day Saints coded 20000, "Mormon"). A wide religious-literacy battery — Bible/Torah/Quran/Buddhist-text knowledge questions, feelings toward religious groups, Holocaust knowledge, and Catholics' own beliefs about Communion — fed Pew's 2019 "What Americans Know About Religion" report.
