Abstract

The present research was conducted to investigate the relationship between religious attitude and personality features. To gather the required data for this research, three hundred and ninety students with different educational levels which were selected randomly from the University of Tehran received the questionnaires. The data involved in this research were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Results showed that there was a significant relationship between religious attitudes of students with different sexuality. In other words, females' attitude was less religious than males at the same university. There was a meaningful relation between the types of religious attitude a person has learned and his/her personality, i.e. students with high religious attitude do not feel disappointment and have gained more firm self-esteem than the ones with low religious attitude. The more a person was educated, the less his/her religious attitude was. The students in upper educational grades were less religious than students in lower grades
