Summary/Abstract: This research aims to present the dynamics in time perspective change and religious life development in post-communist Serbia. The data was collected using CRS-15 and ZTPI scales and the sample consisted of the participants born before 1990 (N=381) and the participants born during or after 1990 (N=360). The results show significant differences on every religiosity subscale, as well as on the central dimension, where younger participants expressed greater scores (Ideology: t(739)=-6.51, p<.000; Intellect: t(739)=-6.29, p<.000; Experience: t(739)=-4.12, p<.000; Private Practice: t(739)=-4.67, p<.000; Public Practice: t(739)=-5.94, p<.000; Centrality of Religiosity: t(739)=-6.47, p<.000). Also, younger participants expressed greater orientation toward the negative past (t(739)=-4.75, p<.000), whereas older participants expressed greater orientation toward the future (t(739)=2.27, p<.05).
