Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of moderating factor namely religious school on the relationship between the determinants and participation in the spiritual activities among Malaysian Muslim youth. This quantitative research was performed using a survey method through questionnaires. The total of 623 samples selection in this study using the technique of the proportional cluster random sampling from undergraduate students at the selected Malaysia Public University. Theory of Planned Behaviour (Ajzen, 1985) was applied as a basis for this study. The results of the Hierarchical Regression analysis revealed that the religious school was found to have significant and positive moderator effect on the relationship between spiritual practices and participation. Instead of attitudes, environmental influences perceived behavioural control, appreciation of religion and demographic characteristics affect positively to the participation of Muslim youth in spirituality development program. Thus, all parties including educational institutions, family and communities need to give more emphasis to one’s religious education factor to ensure a holistic youth development towards nation building of the country.
