Summary/Abstract: This article describes research on the relationships between Spirituality and Religiosity with the involvement in liturgical formation and with such factors as: sex, age and education of the respondents. The theoretical basis for studying the level of Spirituality is the concept of treating it as human’s ability subject to development. It consists of ethical sensitivity, harmony and religiosity, as well as the general level of spirituality. Religiosity is understood as a system of meanings, that consists of: orientation, sense and generally understood religiosity. The Self-Written Questionnaire authored by I. Heszen-Niejodek, E. Gruszczyńska and A. Metlak and the Religious Questionnaire of the Significance System by D. Krok were used to obtain the results. The research results indicate that people undertaking liturgical formation are characterized by a higher level of Spirituality and Religiosity than non-committed people. The higher level of both variables is also presented by women in comparison with men. These studies are of a pilot nature and can form the basis for pastoral activities and further research in the scope of these human dispositions.
