Congratulations! The proposed research relates to survey construction (e.g., word choice and question design strategies) for measuring religiosity in the case of Judaism in Israel. Limiting the research to a few survey instruments, the research will compare survey choices for measuring religiosity in Israel, the U.S., and Europe.
