摘要

Utilizing Rizzuto (1979) and Lawrence's (1997) work, and responding to Sorenson's (2004) exhortation to "mind spirituality," the present study measured changes in God images of graduate students in a religiously oriented master of arts program in spiritual direction and soul care over 3 years. It also replicated a recent study conducted by Craig Edwards (2006), who was measuring the same changes in God images for graduate students in a religiously oriented doctoral program in clinical psychology over the same 3-year period. The current study used the God Image Inventory (GII), developed by Lawrence (1997), to measure possible changes in how graduate students studying spiritual direction and soul care experience God over time. Twenty-nine students participated in this longitudinal study, completing the 27-item survey four times over a 3-year time span. The results showed a positive change over time for the group as a whole on two of the eight scales. These results suggest that the subjects' experience of God was encouraged over the course of their studies in two areas, namely, their experience of God's presence to them, and their experience of being able to have an influence on God. Possible explanations for these changes in the positive direction are explored, with emphasis being placed upon the content and emphases built into their course of study, as well as the mentoring environment which delivers and attempts to embody that curriculum. Additionally, some comparisons are made with C. Edwards' (2006) parallel study that showed a negative change over time across all eight scales of the GII. Most religiously oriented graduate programs in spiritual direction, ministry, and clinical psychology stress that the stated goals of their respective programs are to grow students in both their theoretical understanding and in their development of practical skills. Additionally, these programs also stress the importance of growing in one's relationship with God. The implications of the present study, especially when compared to Edwards' (2006) study, may require that graduate programs pay more careful attention to the spiritual needs of their students as they enter into and move through stated curricula and program requirements that, by their very nature, impact one's experience of and relationship to God. Further study in this area, and the use of formal control groups, are required in order to understand what variables contribute to changes of scores over time with these student populations enrolled in religiously oriented graduate programs.

Edwards(2006)的平行研究进行了一些比较,该研究显示了GII的所有八种规模随时间的变化都是负的。在精神指导,事工和临床心理学方面,大多数以宗教为导向的研究生课程都强调,他们各自课程的既定目标是在理论理解和实践技能发展方面培养学生。此外,这些计划还强调了与上帝建立关系的重要性。本研究的意义,尤其是与爱德华兹(2006)的研究相比,可能要求研究生课程在进入并通过既定的课程和课程要求时更加注意学生的精神需求,本质,影响一个人与神的关系和关系。为了了解在参加面向宗教的研究生课程的这些学生群体中,随着时间的推移,哪些变量会导致分数变化,因此需要对该领域进行进一步的研究,并使用正式的对照组。
