Introduction

Modern researches suggested that the adolescents' addictive behaviors increased and age limit of interest lowered.

Objectives

to investigate the association of moral religious beliefs (RMB), aggressiveness, anxiety, depressiveness, family relations and addictive behavior of the school adolescents.

Methods

The sample was consisted from 120 elementary and 120 secondary school students (120 girls) of age from 12-18 years. We used The Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25, The Questionnaire for Measurement of Aggressiveness (AG-87), The Religious Moral Beliefs Scale, Perception of Family Interaction Scale.

Results

The obtained results indicate that the level of RMB was positively associated with the level of the family relationships-acceptance perception, as well as with the level of the academic achievements and the level of student's behavior in the schools. Also, we found that the level of RMB of the school adolescents was negatively associated with the level of anxiety, depressiveness, aggressiveness and the level of perception of family relationships: rejection and control. Furthermore, the level of RMB was negatively correlated with the addictive behaviors of examined adolescents; on the other hand the level of anxiety, depressiveness and aggressiveness was positively correlated with the addictive behaviors of tested school adolescents.

Conclusion

The level of anxiety, depressiveness and aggressiveness positively correlated with the addictive behaviors of tested school adolescents.
