| Summary: | The education system at the university level in Indonesia teaches religion as a mandatory course for the students, and it can form their religious orientation. Religion orientation and hope have played an important role in the educational field. Both hope and religious orientation play essential roles for university students. The study aimed to examine the relationship between hope and religious orientation among university students. The Adult Hope Scale was used to measure hope, while the Intrinsic/Extrinsic Religious Orientation Scale was used to measure religious orientation. Participants of this research were 439 people, consisting of religion-based university students (N = 314) and non-religion based university students (N = 125). This study found only internal religious orientation significantly contributed to the level of hope, both in religion-based university and non-religion-based university. The result will be discussed in detail, and further research will be suggested in this paper. |
