description This research aimed to determine whether the probability of granting forgiveness and religious faith predict the meaning of life in young people and adults from the San Martín region. A cross-sectional study with a predictive design was conducted. The sample consisted of 756 participants, including both youth and adults. The instruments used were the Meaning in Life Scale, the Probability of Forgiveness Scale, and the Santa Clara Strength of Religious Faith Questionnaire. The data collected were analyzed using correlation coefficients and linear regression models. The results revealed a statistically significant relationship between religious faith and the sense of life. Linear regression analysis indicated that religious faith (β = 0.879; p < 0.000) has a substantial impact on the meaning of life among participants, making it a relevant predictor (adjusted R² = 0.773). This value suggests that the regression model has a large effect size, meaning that religious faith explains 77 % of the variance in sense of life. Furthermore, the t-values of the beta regression coefficients were highly significant (p < 0.000). In conclusion, the findings suggest that religious faith is an essential predictor of the meaning of life in both young people and adults.
