Description
Résumé:Spilka, Amatas, and Nussbaum published "The Concept of God: A Factor-Analytic Approach" in 1964. As each decade has passed it has been cited more frequently. The measurement technique has been adaptable to numerous situations and topics. The literature citing this work ranges from studies of how groups differ in conceptualization of God to studies of developmental issues to psychological adjustment, with significant and meaningful correlations in every area. The research growing from this seminal article reinforces the rationale that concepts of God are of central importance to the study of how religion develops and how it impacts people.
