According to the results, the proportion of people who describe themselves as "religious" has dropped from 55% to 46%, while those who identify as "non-believers or atheists" have increased from 2% to 8%.
KONDA shared the results of its “Lifestyles Survey,” conducted in October 2024, with the public.
KONDA compared its latest research with a similar study conducted 16 years ago. Compared to the 2008 survey, a significant decrease was observed in the proportion of people who identify as "religious," while there was a notable increase in the number of those who describe themselves as “atheist and non-believers.”
According to the research conducted by KONDA with 6,137 participants, the proportion of people identifying as "religious," which was 55% in 2008, declined to 46% in 2025.
In the same period, the proportion of those who identified as “atheist and non-believers” rose from 2% to 8%. Meanwhile, the percentage of people who described themselves as “believers” increased slightly, from 31% to 34%.
Among those identified as “devout,” the proportion did not change and remained steady at 12%.
