The social positions of taste between and within music genres
Are higher status cultural tastes in the modern United States better described as being inclusive and broad or exclusive and narrow?

By examining the compositional balance of respondents’ taste portfolios, we reconcile s…

Is Quebec Still a Catholically Distinct Society within Canada? An Examination of Catholic Affiliation and Mass Attendance
Since the Quiet Revolution, Quebec has significantly transformed its relationship to Catholicism.

À partir de données et de résultats d’une recherche plus large sur le catholicisme au Québec et au Canada et de données statistiques canadiennes inédites à l’échelle diocésaine, cet article contribue à…
