Roy Wallis, (1945-1990〔(Content Pages of the Encyclopedia of Religion and Social Science )〕) was a sociologist and Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences at the Queen's University Belfast. He is mostly known for his creation of the seven signs that differentiate a religious congregation from a sectarian church, which he created while researching the Church of Scientology. He introduced the distinction between ''world-affirming'' and ''world-rejecting'' new religious movements.〔Bromley, David ''NEW RELIGIOUS MOVEMENTS'' in the ''Encyclopedia of Religion and Society'' edited by William H. Swatos, Jr. Editor ()〕 After publishing his book ''The Road to Total Freedom'', an in-depth analysis of the sociology of Scientology, he was harassed by the church both legally and personally.〔Roy Wallis's The Road to Total Freedom, page 218-219〕〔Roy Wallis (1977) "The Moral Career of the Research Project" in Colin Bell and Howard Newby (Eds) ''Doing Sociological Research'' London: Allen and Unwin.
