Abstract
Since college students are exposed to the variety of stressors that impact their psychological functioning, determining factors associated with psychological health of these individuals is an important research endeavour. The aim of the current research was to investigate the relationship between image of God with anxiety and depression in college students. To accomplish the stated goal 227 college students were selected by means of proportional sampling procedure. The Image of God Inventory (IOG, Lawrence, 1997) and Scales of Anxiety and Depression in Symptom Checklist90-R (SCL-90R, Deragotis et al., 1973) were administered on them. Analysis of data revealed that the magnitude of anxiety and depression can be predicted from the quality of images of God in college students. Moreover, data revealed that college students who had positive image of God were lower in anxiety and depression than college students who had a negative image of God. Authors concluded that positive image of God were associated with lower anxiety and depression in college students. Theoretical implication and practical application of the finding are discussed in the original paper.
