Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of cultural programs emphasizing religious occasions among female students in the second level of primary education in Qarchak County. A quasi-experimental comparative design was used. The statistical population consisted of all female students at the second level of primary education in Qarchak County. Based on the Krejcie and Morgan sampling table and through random cluster sampling, 215 individuals were selected as the sample and responded to the Religious Attitude and Religiosity Scale by Khodayari et al. The data were analyzed using frequency distribution tables, mean and standard deviation, and the non-parametric Mann–Whitney U test. Based on the findings, there was a significant difference between the group that received cultural program training and the comparison group in the variables of religious belief and religious behavior, with the trained students showing higher mean scores. However, in the variables of religious affect and social pretense, the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant.
