The Semantic Differential Scale (constructed to measure religiosity), the Religious Orientation Scale of the Omnibus Personality Inventory and the IPAT Anxiety Scale questionnaires were administered to 360 Indian adolescents to examine the relationship between religion, religiosity and general anxiety. The results indicated significant correlations between each of the two measures of religiosity and general anxiety. Christian and Muslim subjects were significantly more religious than Hindu subjects. Also, females and younger adolescents were more anxious than males and older adolescents, respectively. The results are discussed in terms of the appropriateness of the two religiosity measures used and the theoretical and practical implications emanating from the data obtained
