| dc.description.abstract | The religious composition recorded in the 1981 census of population is unreliable because of the non-enumeration of individuals and non-response to the census question on religion. Two methods are described in the paper to correct for these distorting elects - a simple bivariate regression technique and a technique based on homogeneous enumeration districts - which are then used to produce corrected population estimates by religion for local government districts for 1981. These figures are compared with similar estimates for 1971 to infer the broad regional pattern of change in religious composition between 1971 and 1981. | |
