Abstract: For the Lie superalgebra $q(n+1)$ a description is given in terms of creation and annihilation operators, in such a way that the defining relations of $q(n+1)$ are determined by quadratic and triple supercommutation relations of these operators. Fock space representations $V_p$ of $q(n+1)$ are defined by means of these creation and annihilation operators. These new representations are introduced as quotient modules of some induced module of $q(n+1)$. The representations $V_p$ are not graded, but they possess a number of properties that are of importance for physical applications. For $p$ a positive integer, these representations $V_p$ are finite-dimensional, with a unique highest weight (of multiplicity 1). The Hermitian form that is consistent with the natural adjoint operation on $q(n+1)$ is shown to be positive definite on $V_p$. For $q(2)$ these representations are ``dispin. For the general case of $q(n+1)$, many structural properties of $V_p$ are derived.
