Sažetak
The paper is based on the analysis of results obtained from the empirical research carried out
from January to April 2017 on a convenience sample made up of students from the University
of Zagreb and the Catholic University of Croatia (N=1270). A group administered survey was
conducted with respondents from the first to the last year of studies at three faculties of the
University of Zagreb (Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering
and Naval Architecture, School of Medicine) and with students at four departments of
the Catholic University of Croatia (Sociology, Psychology, History and Communication Studies).
The purpose of the paper is to present the results of two empirical studies conducted
in 2005 and 2017 on religiosity of Zagreb students. The general assumption is that religious
changes among college students in Zagreb coincide with those of the general population of
Croatia. The three working hypotheses are: (1) students at the Catholic University of Croatia
are more inclined to Christian religiosity than students at the University of Zagreb, (2) female
students are more inclined to Christain religiosity than their male counterparts and (3) Christian
religiosity of students is strongly connected with their political orientation. The analysis
results confirm the first and the third working hypothesis.
