Extent and dissemination of studies on religion and national identity doubles the need for a meta-analysis approach. Therefore the purpose of this article is analyze and combine the results of researches on religiosity and national identity. The statistical population of this research is composed of all scientific and research articles in Iran in relation to the relationship between religiosity and national identity from 2006 till the end of 2016. total of 24 studies were found, which 10 were selected as the final selection for sampling. Initially, the diffusion bias and the heterogeneity of the effect size were confirmed. Then, sensitivity of effect size and effect size coefficient and moderating role of statistical population were investigated using CMA software.Findings show that the coefficient of influence of religiosity on national identity is 0.483. Also considering the moderating variable of the statistical population, this coefficient for students (adolescent) was 0.497 And for youth 0.462 evaluated. Overall, the results show that religiosity as an independent variable has a moderate effect on national identity as a dependent variable, although this rate is higher among adolescents than in youth.
