A sample of 236 16- to 19-yr.old female A level students studying in the north east of England completed the short form Revised Eysenck Personality Questionnaire together with indices of prayer and church attendance. The data support the view that psychoticism is correlated with self-reported church attendance (r = -.15) and self-reported prayer (r = -.15), while scores on neither extraversion nor neuroticism are correlated with these indices of religiosity.
