The current paper is a report of a research on the level of religiosity and sense of security among the female high-school and pre-university students in Tehran. In this scientific work, one main hypothesis and four sub-hypotheses were formulated using the integrated theories of religiosity and sense of security. The hypothesis and sub-hypotheses were tested through survey research, using a researcher-made questionnaire. The Statistical population consisted of 400 students who were selected using multistage cluster sampling. The results indicated that there was a significant inverse relationship between religiosity and sense of security among female students. In other words, the more religious the students were, the less sense of security they had. Moreover, each of the dimensions of religiosity (ritual, experiential, ideological, and consequential) had a significant inverse relationship with the sense of security. In general, all of the hypotheses were confirmed by reverse.
