Pew Research Center's published trend chapter from the 2023-24 Religious Landscape Study, comparing the Evangelical Protestant, Mainline Protestant and Historically Black Protestant tradition shares of United States adults across all three Religious Landscape Study waves fielded in 2007, 2014 and 2023-24. Used here for those tradition-share trend figures, distinct from the same program's separate state-by-state 2023-24 breakdown used elsewhere in the atlas.

Assessment
Reliability Tier1
Reliability tier 1: the Religious Landscape Study's own trend chapter, published by Pew Research Center on 2025-02-26, comparing the survey's own three fielded waves (2007, 2014 and 2023-24) side by side with each wave's own sample size and methodology stated. A large scale, methodologically transparent academic survey program reporting its own results directly, not a third party relay. Connections
