Abstract

From a sample of 367 individuals, largely consisting of respondents from the Shively neighborhood of Greater Louisville, each were asked to respond to twenty questions on an anonymous survey. Several tests of hypotheses were conducted to determine the degree to which political ideology affected one’s opinion on gun law and religiosity. In addition, the influence of religious belief on personal assessment of happiness was explored and the researcher examined if there was significant evidence to connect a person’s personality with their preferred work style.
