ABSTRACT
Dr Christopher Rutledge's study is a guide to the churchmanship of established clergy serving in the ordained ministry in the 1990s, and this study is a guide to the churchmanship of those whose ministry began after the vote to accept the ordination of women to the priesthood. Rutledge obtained a five per cent random sample of all serving Anglican clergy in England and used a similar Catholic/Evangelical scale as his measure of churchmanship. Given Rutledge's figures earlier about the proportions of Catholic, Central and Evangelical clergy in the Anglican Church as a whole, it might be predicted that there would be a churchmanship mismatch between curates and their training incumbents and parishes. The Catholic subscale achieved the satisfactory alpha reliability coefficient of 0.94. The Mystical subscale achieved the satisfactory alpha of 0.79. The Charismatic subscale achieved the satisfactory alpha of 0.91.
