“…Overall, the list has adequate psychometric properties, according to classical test theory. The structure of the questionnaire, which consists of five different scales (see next), was confirmed by a confirmatory factor analysis (Murken et al, 2011). As a self-report instrument, the questionnaire measures the respondents' chronically accessible representations of God; in other words, the participants report their representations of God which are most readily and consistently activated (cf.…”

“…The Questionnaire of God Representations (Murken et al, 2011;Schaap-Jonker et al, 2008) covers two dimensions, namely the feelings someone experiences in relationship with God/the divine and the beliefs on God's actions or the divine power. In this way, the list functions as an operationalization of a relational view that understands God representations as comprising both emotional aspects ("heart knowledge" or experiential representations) and cognitive aspects ("head knowledge" or doctrinal representations; cf.…”

“…As a core aspect of religiousness that is intertwined with psychic experience and life history, God representations give insight into the affective quality of the relationship with God/the divine and the meaning of religious behavior (Tisdale et al, 1997, p. 228). Several measurement instruments have been developed to measure representations of God, among which the Questionnaire of God Representations (QGR; Gibson, 2007;Murken, Möschl, Müller, & Appel, 2011;Schaap-Jonker, Eurelings-Bontekoe, Zock, & Jonker, 2008;Sharp et al, 2013). The QGR has frequently been administered among both clinical groups (i.e., different samples of [psychiatric] patients, both ambulatory patients and inpatients) and nonclinical groups (i.e., samples of individuals without any [psychiatric] diagnosis, belonging to the general population).…”

The Dutch Questionnaire of God Representations (QGR) was investigated by means of item response theory (IRT) modeling in a clinical (n = 329) and a nonclinical sample (n = 792). Through a graded response model and IRT-based differential functioning techniques, detailed item-level analyses and information about measurement invariance between the clinical and nonclinical sample were obtained. On the basis of the results of the IRT analyses, a shortened version of the QGR (S-QGR) was constructed, consisting of 22 items, which functions in the same way in both the clinical and the nonclinical sample. Results indicated that the QGR consists of strong and reliable scales which are able to differentiate among persons. Psychometric characteristics of the S-QGR were adequate.

“…Religi ö ses Coping wurde mittels der Skalen zur Gottesbeziehung und zum religi ö sen Coping (SGrC) von Murken, M ö schl, M ü ller und Appel erfasst, die an deutschen Stichproben im klinischen Kontext entwickelt wurden [40] . Mit den beiden Subskalen " Positives religi ö ses Coping " (PRC) und " Negatives religi ö ses Coping " (NRC) werden in Anlehnung an Pargament et al [35,41] zwei grundlegende Formen religi ö sen Copings abgebildet: einerseits religi ö se Bew ä ltigung, die Ausdruck einer sicheren Gottesbeziehung und von Trost und Halt durch den Glauben ist, und andererseits religi ö ses Coping, das Ausdruck einer unsicheren Gottesbeziehung und zweifelnder, hadernder Religiosit ä t ist.…”

The present study investigated whether women and men differ with regard to non-religious and religious coping with cancer, here: colon cancer--a question on which only little research has been done so far. 341 patients filled in a questionnaire during inpatient oncological rehabilitation. Statistical analyses showed that women reported higher mental strain than men. They used more bagatellization and wishful thinking, more depressive and less active problem-oriented coping strategies. A higher use of religious coping among women was to a high degree associated with their generally stronger religiosity. Correlations between coping strategies and measures of mental health indicated commonalities and differences. In particular, a positive correlation between active problem-oriented coping and mental health was found for men but not for women. In accordance with women's higher religiosity, the data indicate a stronger correlation between religious coping and adaptation among women than among men. The results suggest that gender differences and religiosity can be relevant in the context of treatment but that their significance must not be overinterpreted. In terms of patient orientation they speak for the necessity to individually assess the need for support, also with regard to the consideration of religiosity in the treatment process.

There is substantial evidence to support the claim that religion can protect against suicide ideation, suicide attempts, and completed suicide. There is also evidence that religion does not always protect against suicidality. More insight is needed into the relationship between suicidal parameters and dimensions of religion. A total of 155 in- and outpatients with major depression from a Christian Mental Health Care institution were included. The following religious factors were assessed: religious service attendance, frequency of prayer, religious salience, type of God representation, and moral objections to suicide (MOS). Multiple regression analyses were computed. MOS have a unique and prominent (negative) association with suicide ideation and the lifetime history of suicide attempts, even after controlling for demographic features and severity of depression. The type of God representation is an independent statistical predictor of the severity of suicide ideation. A positive-supportive God representation is negatively correlated with suicide ideation. A passive-distressing God representation has a positive correlation with suicide ideation. High MOS and a positive-supportive God representation in Christian patients with depression are negatively correlated with suicide ideation. Both are likely to be important markers for assessment and further development of therapeutic strategies.
