Comparing Religious Maturity of Hindu, Christian and Muslim Secondary School Students

The current study attempted to examine the religious maturity of Hindu (N=1050), Christian (N=1073) and Muslim (N=1394) adolescents studying at secondary level in Pakistan. This research is based on the theory of religious orientations presented by Allpport (1950). Age universal I-E scale (revised version of ROS – Religious Orientation Scale) developed by Kirkpatrick (1988) and Maltby (1999) was adopted as research instrument. Findings contribute in establishing associations among students’ religious faiths and orientations. The study concludes that the students’ religious affiliations are significant predictors of their religious maturity.
