ABSTRACT

During adolescence, biological, psychological, and social changes naturally propel youth to confront religious matters and form outlooks, moral beliefs, and religious attitudes. However, it is not uncommon for them to manifest changes of affiliation with a religious group or a total removal of all religious expressions within their lives. In Poland, a decline in the level of religiosity of young people has been reported for years. This study aimed to analyze how processes of deconversion affect adolescents’ quality of life. In total, 272 respondents aged between 14 and 18 (M = 15.74, SD = 1.14) participated in the research. The Adolescent Deconversion Scale, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and Quality of Life Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents were applied. The results showed that existential emptiness and faith abandonment predicted lower adolescent satisfaction, since they weakened the sense of family support. However, moral criticism predicted higher social integration, because adolescents who criticize moral rules taught by religion had a stronger sense of peer support.

摘要

在青春期，生理、心理和社会的变化自然会促使青少年面对宗教问题并形成观点、道德信仰和宗教态度。然而，他们在生活中表现出与宗教团体的联系发生变化或完全消除所有宗教表达的情况并不少见。多年来，据报道，波兰年轻人的宗教信仰水平有所下降。本研究旨在分析解转化过程如何影响青少年的生活质量。共有 272 名 14 至 18 岁的受访者（M = 15.74，SD = 1.14）参与了这项研究。应用了青少年去转换量表、感知社会支持的多维量表以及儿童和青少年的生活质量问卷。结果表明，存在主义空虚和信仰放弃预示着青少年满意度较低，因为它们削弱了家庭支持感。然而，道德批评预示着更高的社会融合度，因为批评宗教教义的青少年有更强的同伴支持感。
