Abstract

A qualitative research was performed to explore the semantic differential regarding the image of God from young persons. These pairs of contrast were qualified in the field of environment as well as physical and mental characteristics. 27 contrast pairs from a large number of different options had been selected, to reveal through a written survey with adolescents their relationship with God. The semantic differential was evaluated through a factor analysis.
