摘要

2010年美国宗教人口普查:宗教集会和成员调查(RCMS)是美国宗教生活最全面的图景，每个县。对地方宗教团体的覆盖有多全面?为了回答这个问题，将收集到的数据与RCMS 2010报告的数字进行了比较，对三个县进行了快照。数据显示，在这些县，当地会众的数量少报了多达25%。新兴的宗教运动和教派以及少数民族教会占了这一比例的很大一部分，这使得学者们更有必要开发方法和框架，以捕捉这些“其他人”和美国的无形教会。

The Others: Finding and Counting America's Invisible Churches

The 2010 U. S. Religious Census: Religious Congregations and Membership Survey (RCMS) is the most comprehensive picture of U.S. religious life, county by county. How thorough is the RCMS in covering local religious groups? To answer this question, three county snapshots were performed with collected data compared to the RCMS 2010 reported numbers. Data suggest that there has been an underreport by as much as 25 percent of the number of local congregations in these counties. New and emerging religious movements and denominations as well as ethnic congregations comprise much of this percentage, making it more imperative for scholars to develop methodologies and frameworks in order to capture these “others” and invisible churches in America.

期刊介绍： Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion is a multi-disciplinary journal that publishes articles, research notes, and book reviews on the social scientific study of religion. Published articles are representative of the best current theoretical and methodological treatments of religion. Substantive areas include both micro-level analysis of religious organizations, institutions, and social change. While many articles published in the journal are sociological, the journal also publishes the work of psychologists, political scientists, anthropologists, and economists.
