The image of God determines the development and formation of individual religiosity. So over the past decades, has been studied more than any other religious concepts. This study aimed to examine the relationship between paternal and maternal images of parents with image of God. For this purpose 194 students (98 girls, 95 boys) were selected through multi-stage sampling method from the population of 8-12 years old children in Yazd. Guided by the researcher, all children responded to the semantic differential parental scale which assesses the parental and maternal characteristics of parents and God; designed by Pattin and Casters (1964). Data were analyzed using variance analysis, Pearson correlation and stepwise regression. Result indicated that there was a meaningful relationship between paternal and maternal parental image and image of God. The results of stepwise regression analysis showed that mother's paternal image and maternal image had the ability to predict 50% of a positive image of God. Also, the paternal image of God was significantly different at different ages. Another research finding showed that image of God was based on maternal features rather than paternal and no significant gender differences were seen.
