Abstract

Background: Religious awareness is a key factor in shaping students’ religious behavior, especially during the formative years of primary school amid growing moral and spiritual challenges. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of religious awareness as a moderator in shaping the religious behavior of primary school students. Method: A correlation study was conducted at SMA Adiguna Bandar Lampung during the 2023/2024 academic year. The research involved 80 randomly selected students. Data were collected using religious awareness and religious behavior scales. Instrument validity was tested using the product-moment formula, while reliability was assessed with Cronbach’s alpha. Data analysis employed the product-moment formula. Result: The findings indicate a positive relationship between religious awareness and religious behavior, demonstrating that religious awareness significantly influences students' religious life. Conclusion: Religious awareness plays a critical role in moderating and shaping students' religious behavior. It suggests that fostering higher levels of religious awareness can positively influence students’ religious actions and attitudes, potentially leading to a more spiritually engaged and conscientious student body. Originality/Value: This study provides a valuable empirical contribution to the fields of psychology of religion, Islamic guidance and counseling, and character education by uncovering the significant positive relationship and influential role of religious awareness in shaping students' religious behavior regarding moral and spiritual development within the context of secondary education at SMA Adiguna Bandar Lampung, a focus that has previously lacked empirical examination through a therapeutic lens. These findings enrich existing quantitative literature and serve as a strategic reference for religious education teachers, school counselors, and educational administrators in designing structured spiritual development programs and utilizing religious awareness interventions to cultivate proactive, conscientious religious behavior among students.
