Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between sense of coherence, identity styles and religiosity during emerging adulthood. The study included 153 subjects (aged 18 to 25 years). The hypothesis about relationship between identity styles and sense of coherence was only partially confirmed. The analysis showed that a diffuse – avoidant style reduce sense of coherence as well as its components: comprehensibility and meaningfulness. The other identity styles were not predictors of sense of coherence but there was a positive correlation between normative style and sense of coherence. There was no relationship between informational style and sense of coherence. Also a level of religiosity proved to have no relevance to sense of coherence.
