Abstract

A sample of 1,070 secondary school pupils between the ages of eleven and eighteen years completed the High School Personality Questionnaire alongside the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity. The data demonstrate that religiosity is significantly correlated with five of the fourteen personality factors and with two of the four second-order factors. A positive attitude toward Christianity is associated with high scores on factor G (conformity), factor I (tendermindedness) and factor Q3 (self discipline), and low scores on factor E (submissiveness), factor F (sobriety), second-order factor of extraversion (indicating a relationship with introversion), and second-order factor of tough poise (indicating a relationship with emotionality).
