Özet:

Adolescence is a period of transition from cognitive to abstract thinking, and emotionally, independence is generally acquired. The adolescence period is a period of doubt and questioning about religious beliefs, and the questions of faith are often discussed by young people. This study is prepared by James Fowler’s theory of cognitive-based faith development, which is based on theology, in a sense of the general development theories. Study is a product of a quality pattern of research. Some students were interviewed, and some were asked to transmit their thoughts on paper. The data has been analyzed by phenomenological methods and the results have been obtained. Today’s university students complain of uncertainty, disappointment, failure to plan for the future, adult pressure and unreliability, misunderstanding or misunderstanding, adult discourse and actions, and the lack of mercy and justice in their surroundings. The university students say that the tendencies related to faith may be a reflection of the inadequacy that is exposed to a group of relatives, parents or adults who do not approach them with emotion and sympathy in the mental background of the process of seeking meaning, and that in the socio-cultural field there is also a desire for some young people to attract or prove their existence.
