Abstract:
Detailed information about the sample designs of Jewish community surveys has been circulated largely by word of mouth or through unpublished statements. Jewish communal researchers have not had the experiences of other researchers readily available to them. Neither have the methodological advances made in the field been available to sociologists. The technologies employed by the major Jewish community studies conducted in the 1980s are described and compared in this paper so as to make them accessible to both groups of researchers.
