Abstract

Catholic priests are called to follow God by preaching the good news as well as sanctifying and leading God’s people. The work of a priest is evaluated by the people he serves and by the bishop. The assessment is rather informal and is based on two references: people’s experiences and their reports to the bishop. As a result, the evaluations are subjective in nature. The aim of this study is to formulate an objective scale that is a qualitative and quantitative instrument based on six key dimensions for use in evaluating the pastoral efectiveness of parish priests. This self-report scale contains 36 valid and reliable items that ask for 4-point Likert responses.
