Review of Religious Research (RRR)
Journal Descriptions
Review of Religious Research is a long-standing, quarterly peer-reviewed journal that has been publishing since 1959, making it one of the established outlets for empirical work in the social science of religion. The journal is published on behalf of the Religious Research Association (RRA) and disseminated globally through SAGE Publications. Its core mission is to foster high-quality research that advances scholarly knowledge about religion as a social phenomenon. Contributions typically involve empirical investigations — including surveys, in-depth interviews, ethnography, case studies, content analysis, and mixed methods — that explore how religion shapes and is shaped by broader societal processes. Topics span religious participation, organizational dynamics of congregations and denominations, patterns of belief and spiritual practice, the role of religion in civic engagement and family life, and comparative analyses across faith traditions and cultural contexts. In addition to original research, each issue includes book reviews and reports on ongoing research projects, offering readers a comprehensive view of current developments in the field. Through its interdisciplinary lens, RRR attracts contributions from sociology, psychology, anthropology, and related fields, making it a vital resource for academics, practitioners, and students seeking rigorous, evidence-based insights on religion and society.
