Assessment name: The God Image Scales (GIS)
Scale
overview: The God
Image Scales (GIS) are a collection of six scales in a 72-item format.
Six
Scales
Lawrence
grouped the 72 items into six subscales listed below. The number following the
scale is the Cronbach’s alpha value from Lawrence (1997).
Presence
.95
Challenge .81
Acceptance .83
Benevolence .84
Influence
.89
Providence .89
Reliability:
The
Cronbach’s alpha values follow the scale name in the list of six scales.
Validity:
Based on
Lawrence (1997), factor analysis revealed overlap among the six scales. All six
scales were positively correlated with a measure of intrinsic religious
orientation ranging from .56 for Benevolence to .82 for Presence. The correlations with church attendance were
also positive and ranged from .36 to .54.
Availability:
The full
set of 72 items can be found in Lawrence (1997).
