The Study of Factors Affecting Religious Education of Kashan University Students

Abstract

The Present Study aimed to investigate the factors affecting religious education of Kashan University students. The research method is survey. The statistical population of the study was 300 Kashan University students who were selected in 2016-2017 academic year by partial sampling method. The results of the research indicated that female students received more points in religious courses. But the comparison of the obtained averages about the amount of religious training by age, marital status, place of residence, educational level, faculty and religion showed that the level of religious training does not differ according to these variables. In addition, the findings showed that there is a meaningful and direct relationship between the personal and academic traits of professors, family factors, regulation of university, religious training methods, content of religious texts, and general atmosphere of university from one hand, and the religious training of students from the other hand. But there was no meaningful relationship between cultural-social factors and economic-social status from one hand, and the religious training of students from the other hand.
