| Summary: | A sample of 755 secondary school pupils between the ages of 11 and 18 completed the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory, the short-form Revised Junior Eysenck Personality Questionnaire and a semantic differential index of God images in order to examine the relationship between God images and self-esteem while controlling for personality factors. The data demonstrate a significant correlation between positive God images and positive self-esteem, after controlling for individual differences in personality. |
