İlköğretim öğrencilerinin tanrı imgesinin belirlenmesi ve farklı değişkenler açısından incelenmesi

The goal of this two-staged study was to understand how children image of God. In the first stage of this study children were asked ?What comes to mind when you hear the word `God??? Their answers to this question were organized according to frequency and classified into three separate groups. The results of the content analysis established how children image of God and these results were written in item form. An examination of the results obtained from the ?Scale for Children?s Imaginations of God? shows that there was no significant difference between the average scores obtained from male and female children. In comparison with children in other grade levels, however, it was found that fourth grade students were more likely than other children to have a imagination of God as fear and worry-inspiring and less likely to have a imagination of Him as a trust-inspiring or helping God. The average scores of children with illiterate mothers on the sub-dimension of a fear and worry-inspiring God were found to be significantly higher than those of children with literate mothers who had only completed primary school or who had completed secondary school/university. A positive correlation was found between children?s level of academic success and their average scores on the sub-dimensions of a trust-inspiring God and a helping God. Children from middle-income families were found to be less likely than children from either lower- or higher-income families to have an image of God as fear and worry-inspiring.
