Religious and ethnic self-identification in the United States 1989-90:  a case study of the Jewish population.
"In 1989-90, a three-stage national survey was conducted [in the United States]...to identify those households in which the respondents did not report their religion as Jewish but which contained any persons (including the respondent) who 'considered' themselves Jewish, who were raised Jewish, or who had a Jewish parent.... This paper evaluates the extent to which the...different forms of Jewish attachment produce sub-populations with varying socio-demographic characteristics and the degree to which inclusion or exclusion of particular sub-groups affects the overall size and composition of the aggregate Jewish population."  This paper was originally presented at the 1991 Annual Meeting of the Population Association of America.
