ABSTRACT

This research explores the relationship between religiosity, paranormal beliefs, and superstition among young adults in urban areas. The study sample consists of 178 urban young adults aged 18 to 30. Participants were from different states in India, representing diverse regional backgrounds. The research employed a cross-sectional design. Three scales were utilized to measure the levels of religiosity, superstition, and paranormal beliefs. The findings suggest that among urban young adults, religiosity and superstition levels are moderate, while paranormal belief levels are high. The study shows significant relationship between the variables. These results contribute to a better understanding of the complex interplay between religiosity, paranormal beliefs, and superstition among young adults in urban settings.
