Toinen tutkimus:
Edward J. Larson and Larry Witham: "Leading Scientists Still Reject God." Nature, 1998; 394, 313.

BELIEF IN PERSONAL GOD...1914...1933...1998
(%)
Personal belief.....................27.7......15......7.0
Personal disbelief.................52.7......68.....72.2
Doubt or agnosticism............20.9......17.....20.8

BELIEF IN IMMORTALITY......1914...1933...1998
(%)
Personal belief.....................35.2......18.......7.9
Personal disbelief.................25.4......53.....76.7
Doubt or agnosticism............43.7......29.....23.3

Note: The 1998 immortality figures add up to more than 100%. The misprint is in the original. The 76.7% is likely too high.

The authors elaborated on these figures:

Disbelief in God and immortality among NAS biological scientists was 65.2% and 69.0%, respectively, and among NAS physical scientists it was 79.0% and 76.3%. Most of the rest were agnostics on both issues, with few believers. We found the highest percentage of belief among NAS mathematicians (14.3% in God, 15.0% in immortality). Biological scientists had the lowest rate of belief (5.5% in God, 7.1% in immortality), with physicists and astronomers slightly higher (7.5% in God, 7.5% in immortality).
