W niniejszym artykule zostały przedstawione wyniki badań socjologicznych zrealizowanych w latach 1988–2017, na próbach ogólnopolskich młodzieży uczęszczającej do szkół średnich. W hipotezie głównej założono, że młodzież wykazuje skłonność do negowania tradycyjnych wartości (religijnych i moralnych) obowiązujących w Kościele katolickim oraz ulega wartościom lansowanym przez nowe nurty ideowe charakterystyczne dla społeczeństw ponowoczesnych i pluralistycznych. Badania empiryczne z lat 1988–2017 wykazały ponadto przyspieszenie zmian w kondycji religijnej i moralnej młodzieży szkolnej. W 2017 roku wskaźnik przeciętny odnoszący się do wybranych przejawów religijności wynosił 47%, a spadek aprobaty tych elementów kształtował się na poziomie 15,7%. „Pełzająca” sekularyzacja w środowiskach młodzieżowych, wyraźnie przyspieszająca, wydaje się już faktem społecznym.

Religiousness and the sense of identity of students from the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia
The subject matter explored in the article include the issues related to religiousness of university students. This category comprises their denominational structure, their attitude to religion, their self-evaluation of the essence of religion in life, the frequency of participation in religious practices. These categories are shown in relation to their sense of identity. The research with the use of the survey method was conducted among students from the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia who live in culturally diverse territories. The research results show the ongoing changes in Polish and Slovak societies. Young people take advantage of the possibility of making choices and their choices concern not only education and professional paths, but also the beliefs, behaviour and activities in the religious sphere. The surveyed students’ freedom of choice is manifested, among others, in their sense of a multidimensional identity and in the consciousness of belonging to the Church. Among the surveyed university youth – in the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia – one can observe the individualization of religiousness in the form of the departure from religious affiliation, as well as in “belonging without faith”.

The subject matter discussed in the article comprises the issues related to social relations, in particular with making life choices by young adults: the decisions related to the choice of friends, the choice of a life partner or a consent to the marriage of the child with a person of a different religion or nationality. The research with the use of the survey method was conducted among students from the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia, living in culturally diverse areas. The surveyed students show an open attitude towards Others in terms of religion. The results of the study confirmed the earlier tendency to choose close acquaintances and friends, regardless of their religious denomination. Students are a little less willing to choose a life partner and are aware of the difficulties encountered by mixed marriages.
