Araştırmada, yaşam amacı alt boyutlarından kişisel gelişim, maddi kazanç, fiziksel görünüm, sosyal sorumluluk ve bireysel farkındalık ile dindarlık arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi hedeflenmiştir. Çalışmada aynı zamanda katılımcıların demografik özellikler ile (cinsiyet, öğrenim görülen fakülte ve algılanan akademik başarı düzeyi) yaşam amacı alt boyutları arasında bulunan ilişki de tespit edilmiştir.
