Abstract
The article presents the results of an empirical study of religiosity and time perception in a sample of Muslims, Christians, and Atheists. The study involved 77 respondents from 18 to 44 years old. There was used the Religious Orientation Scale of G. Allport and D. Ross for the study of religiosity. There were used Zimbardo time perspective inventory and “time semantic differential” for the study of time perception. We obtained following results: the indicators of “extrinsic religiosity” among Muslims are higher than among Orthodox Christians; Muslims have higher indicators of “present hedonistic” than Orthodox Christians; Atheists have higher indicators of “present hedonistic” than Muslims; Orthodox Christians have higher indicators of “time amount” of the present than Atheists; Muslims have higher indicators of “time amount” of the future than Atheists.
