This method involves research participants listing what they know or think about the researcher's topic. This book incorporates free-list analyses with other analytical methods and demonstrates their broad applicability. The book starts with descriptive methods, then outlines a predictive statistical framework. The author explains how to collect, clean, and manage free-list data and how to use R to calculate and visualize them.

Benjamin Grant Purzycki is Associate Professor at Aarhus University's Department of the Study of Religion. A cognitive and evolutionary anthropologist by training, he merges experimental and ethnographic methods together to make better sense of religious systems' utility for human adaptation. He has conducted fieldwork in the Tyva Republic (Russia) and managed large cross-cultural projects. He co-developed AnthroTools (with Alastair Jamieson-Lane), a software package for analyzing ethnographic data in R and has published in a wide range of journals including Current Anthropology, Cognition, Cognitive Science, Nature, Proceedings of the Royal Society B, and Psychological Methods. His books include Religion Evolving: Cultural, Cognitive, and Ecological Dynamics (with Richard Sosis, Equinox), The Minds of Gods: New Horizons in the Naturalistic Study of Religion (with Theiss Bendixen, Bloomsbury), the two-volume Evolution of Religion and Morality project (with Martin Lang, Joseph Henrich, and Ara Norenzayan, Routledge), and Morality and the Gods (Cambridge University Press).
