Religiosity in the European Union: Results from the 5th wave of the European Values Study

Abstract

The working paper contains data from the fifth wave of the European Values concerning religiosity in the European Union. Its aim is to present central results and calculate key indices of religiosity descriptively, e.g. a typology of religiousness. Therefore, the paper merely visualises these results and indices in the form of charts, but does not undertake any interpretations or conclusions. Since the release of the final dataset has been postponed due to the outbread of the coronavirus, the third pre-release of the European Values Study’s fifth wave is analysed, which contains data about 19 member states of the European Union with a total of 32,043 participants.
