The purpose of this survey is to gather information about the knowledge, skills, abilities, and other attributes possessed by the men of the Orthodox Church in America and Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America. This survey is for Orthodox men, including clergy and laymen. At this time, we are not collecting responses from women, although we plan to include Orthodox women in a future survey.
The survey has two sections. The first section (~10 minutes for laymen, ~15 minutes for priests) gathers demographic data and your opinions on aspects of Orthodoxy and the priesthood. The second section (~10 minutes) is a set of 60 personality questions, split into two pages. If these questions seem irrelevant or repetitive, please continue to fill out the survey. It is a standard list of personality questions translated into over 50 languages and used in studies across the world for 20 years.
We expect the survey as a whole will take between 20 and 25 minutes. Thank you for your participation!
