Abstract: To provide a negative type photosensitive composition curable at a low temperature and capable of forming a cured film excellent in transparency, in chemical resistance and in environmental durability, and also to provide a pattern-formation method employing the composition. [Means] The present invention provides a negative type photosensitive composition comprising: an alkali-soluble resin, a compound having two or more (meth)acryloyloxy groups, a polysiloxane, a polymerization initiator, and a solvent. The alkali-soluble resin is a polymer comprising a carboxyl-containing polymerization unit and an alkoxysilyl-containing polymerization unit.
