The 2001 American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS 2001) was designed to replicate, as closely as possible, the methodology used for the 1990 National Survey of Religious Identification (NSRI) which took place under the auspices of the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.  As shown below, ARIS 2001 is cited annually as the data source for religious identification in the Statistical Abstract of the U.S.
