An Examination of the Relationship between Religious Attachment Styles and God Conceptualizations on Mental Health

Christ, Greta Marie

Abstract Details

2011, Master of Arts, Marietta College, Psychology.
The primary purpose of this study was to examine the impact religious attachment styles and God concepts have on levels of overall well-being. Seventy-four adults completed the Attachment to God Inventory (AGI; Beck & McDonald, 2004), the God Concept Adjective Checklist (Schaefer & Gorsuch, 1992), and the Hopkins Symptom Checklist 90 Revised (SCL-90R; Derogatis, 1977). A two-way ANOVA did not reveal a significant interaction between attachment styles, endorsed God concepts and symptomology to exist. Only levels of symptomology among different attachment styles were found to be significant. However, post hoc analyses did not reveal any statistically significant differences between attachment groups. Implications for future research are discussed.
