Year: 1998
Module: Religious Observance
Variable: V66

Question: There are many different ways of picturing God. We’d like to know the kinds of images you are most likely to associate with God.
Below are sets of contrasting images. On a scale of 1-7 where would you place your images of God between the two contrasting images? The first set of contrasting images shows master at 1 on the scale and spouse at 7. If you imagine God as a master, you should place yourself at 1. If you imagine God as a spouse, you should place yourself at 7. If you imagine God as being somewhere between master and spouse, you would place yourself at 2,3,4,5 or 6. Where would you place your image of God on the scale for each set of images?
