The inclusion of spirituality in therapeutic professionals' conceptualization of human beings is becoming more common as the twentieth century nears its end. Many authors see this as a result of the post-modern paradigm that has slowly displaced the modern paradigm throughout the course of this century. As an element of the human experience, spirituality can function as a powerful resource for clients engaging in counseling and psychotherapy and for facilitating satisfaction in living.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The inclusion of spirituality in therapeutic professionals' conceptualization of human beings is becoming more common as the twentieth century nears its end. Many authors see this as a result of the post-modern paradigm that has slowly displaced the modern paradigm throughout the course of this century. As an element of the human experience, spirituality can function as a powerful resource for clients engaging in counseling and psychotherapy and for facilitating satisfaction in living.
520 $a The purpose of this study was to explore the construct of spiritual wellness, identify cross-traditional dimensions of spiritual wellness, and to pioneer an inventory that would offer therapists a vocabulary and starting point for addressing spirituality in the counseling session. In addition, the author of the study sought to explore factors that may underlie dimensions of spiritual wellness.
520 $a A panel of twelve people from different spiritual traditions was assembled, interviewed, and worked with to identify dimensions of spiritual wellness and items that could be used for a spiritual wellness inventory. A draft of the inventory was constructed and initial norming procedures were carried out with a sample of 515 adults.
520 $a Results of the work with the panel included agreement on the usefulness of conception of divinity, meaning, hope, forgiveness, mystery, ritual, connectedness, present-centeredness, spiritual freedom, and knowledge/learning as dimensions of spiritual wellness. Eighty-eight items for the Spiritual Wellness Inventory (SWI), representing these dimensions, were identified and initial factor analysis resulted in five strong factors underlying these items.
520 $a Orthogonal factor analysis of the first sample's responses to the spiritual wellness inventory pointed toward five underlying factors but replication is needed to rule-out sample bias. The results suggest that there is good face and construct validity for the dimensions of spiritual wellness and the underlying factors. Future research exploring the factors is necessary. In addition, future research will have to examine the relationships between the construct of spiritual wellness and the construct of "soul," the construct of spiritual maturity and the construct of spiritual wellness, as well as improving the construction of the items.
