This book examined to what extent Asian-American
college students attachment to their parents
affected their relationship with God.The study
included 206 Korean-American and 95 Chinese-
American college students in the Dallas and Austin
areas. Students completed the Inventory of Parent
and Peer Attachment (IPPA) and the Spiritual
Assessment Inventory (SAI). Results showed that
students with low attachment to their parents
displayed more instability and disappointment in
their relationships with God than students with high
attachment. Highly attached students, however,
showed a high level of awareness of God s presence
in their lives and a positive self-image in
religious lives.
