Abstract

Building on three earlier studies, the present paper employs the abbreviated form of the Revised Eysenck Personality Questionnaire to compare the personality profile of 94 Anglican clergy engaged in rural ministry with 219 clergy engaged in ministry in non rural parishes. The research is based in the dioceses of Worcester and Lichfield. Rural clergy were found to be more socially conforming, but neither more introverted nor more extraverted than clergy serving in non-rural parishes. The implications of personality differences are discussed for the shape of rural ministry.
