abstract = {The aim of our study is to verify the influence of Religious Education on Spanish adolescents
by applying a quantitative study based on descriptive and social research methods which reflect the
religious and social plurality of Spain, with a total of 679 secondary education students. By means
of the Delphi technique, an exploratory and semi-confirmatory factor analysis, and a confirmatory
analysis using structural equations, the psychometric properties of the questionnaire designed are
guaranteed. Using a multivariate analysis of variance, after the Levene test, multiple comparisons
are made in order to assess the di erence between religions and gender with respect to school
Religious Education. Significant di erences and large e ect sizes are found. The results show first
that experiences with regard to religion in school are more positive for the group of Christian women
and that of Muslim men; second, that the knowledge of religion helps in the daily development of
adolescents; third, that men from the two major religious groups and Jewish women demand more
autonomy; and lastly, that students consider that the curricular development of religion in school
should be reviewed, although it is confirmed that Religious Education is regarded as important for
their life and future development.},
