ABSTRACT For adherents of theistic religions, God representations are an important factor in explaining associations between religion/spirituality and well-being/mental health. Because of limitations of self-report measures of God representations, we developed an implicit God representation instrument, the Apperception Test God Representations (ATGR) and examined its reliability and validity. Its scales could be scored reliably and were within a clinical sample associated more strongly than explicit God representation scales with the Global Assessment of Functioning scale. Compared to the ATGR scores of a nonclinical sample, the clinical sample had less complex, positive, and mature God representations, indicating discriminant validity.

构造和验证一种评估上帝表征的隐性工具。第1部分：隐性和显性神的表示与遇险措施之间的关联

摘要对于有神论宗教的信徒，上帝的代表是解释宗教/灵性与幸福/心理健康之间关系的重要因素。由于上帝陈述自我报告方法的局限性，我们开发了一种隐式上帝代表工具，即知觉测试上帝代表（ATGR），并检验了其可靠性和有效性。它的量表可以可靠地打分，并且在临床样本中，与明确的上帝代表量表和全球功能评估量表之间的联系更为紧密。与非临床样本的ATGR评分相比，临床样本的复杂性，阳性和成熟的God表示都较少，表明了判别有效性。
