| Summary: | This article presents a review of the empirical literature on Attachment to God. We used the integrative review method and collected data on existing publications in the period from 1980 to 2017, at BVS, CINAHL, CAPES Journal Portal, PsycARTICLES, PubMed, SciELO and SocINDEX databases. Search was performed in the title' and abstract' field. After examining the 254 found publications, 62 studies were selected for analysis and categorized into thematic units, according to the focus of each study: "construction or validation of scales", "life cycles", "mental health", "religious experience", and "counseling and spiritual care". Parental attachment influences on how a person will build or not a relationship of attachment to God. Attachment to God may be a form to alleviate suffering and to repair internal working models of the person. People with secure Attachment to God present a healthy increase in spirituality and adopt behaviors that favor physical and emotional health. People with an insecure Attachment to God show instability in spirituality and report more distress, which may cause a decline in mental health. The concepts of a God who cares can be employed to promote greater autonomy and self-confidence. Considering the importance of religiosity in the Brazilian cultural context, the deepening of the theme would be of great relevance for the fields of Theology, Psychology and Religious Science. |
