Résumé
There has been an increasing need in research for more authentic and multidimensional data in regard to representations children make about gods (Gibson, 2008). Hence, the use of qualitative measures such as drawings and narratives has showed to be most relevant as it allows developmental and cultural aspects to be taken into account (Hanisch, 1996; Harms, 1944). So far, only two studies have looked into children's representations of supernatural agents outside of Western countries (Brandt, Kagata Spitteler & Gillièron Paléologue, 2009; Dandarova, 2013). However, cross-cultural comparisons would still be essential to the topic. Unfortunately, to date such information has been reported in only one study (Konyushkova et al., in preparation). Nevertheless, the present project aims to save into a database (http://dddtiresias.unil.ch) children's drawings from all over the world through international partnership, which should widely broaden our knowledge on the matter.
