Abstract

The present study was designed to develop a religiosity scale to be used with university students. 2182 university students studying at the undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate levels were selected through stratified random sampling from among all the university students in Tehran. The scale was developed in four stages (three initial stages and one final stage). The results verified the criterion validity, differential validity and construct validity of the scale. The reliability was exa mined with the use of retest technique and internal consistency. Religiosity was found to be a complex construct with various dimensions of cognition, emotion, and behaviour. It encompasses attributes such as relation with God, with others, with one's self and with the universe.
