Summary: | Clear, thorough, and parsimonious: three distinguishing characteristics of Pearce and Denton's report on the second wave of the National Study of Youth and Religion (NSYR). Insightful not only for its description of five adolescent religious types and their “religious refinement” from 2002 to 2005, but also for the report's evidence of maturing scholarship on youth and religion. Gone is “moralistic therapeutic Deism,” religious “inarticulateness,” and the alarmist tone of the first-wave NSYR report (i.e., Smith and Denton's Soul Searching). |
