Abstract

This article aims to compare religious attitude and religious faith strength among girl pupils and students of Isfahan. For doing this, 65 girl pupils and 55 girl students were chosen from Isfahan high schools and Isfahan University, respectively, using random sampling method. Needed information was collected by means of Religious Attitude Measurement Questionnaire – prepared by Khodayari et al (2001) – and Santa Clara Strength of Religious Faith Questionnaire (1997). Research findings which were attained through ANOVA indicated that there is a significant difference between religious attitude of two groups (pupils and students) on the basis of components included in the questionnaires such as science and religion and so on (P=0.05 and p=0.0001). Additionally, there was not seen a significant difference between two groups in terms of religious faith strength
