The Mormon test village was used to determine that a community is maintained by both ideological commitment and cooperative action within a cultural framework. This study is based on earlier research done by Lowry Nelson in Escalante, Ephraim, and American Fork, Utah. Goodsell concentrated his research in Ephraim because the city is located at the center of the cultural heartland of Utah Mormonism.
