This finding looks at the relationship between religion and attitudes toward life.

The level of religious involvement of the respondent’s family members was related to attitudes towards life. Among a sample of Canadian adolescents who attended Catholic schools, those who reported having high levels of religious involvement among their family members were more likely to report having a higher satisfaction with life than their peers who reported low levels of religious involvement among their family members.
