Abstract
Background and Aim: A healthy lifestyle is a valuable resource for reducing health problems and promoting health, and improving the quality of life. In the present study, the effect of interprofessional spiritual health education on the lifestyle of military students was determined. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted between March 2018 and June 2019. A total of 110 final senior nursing and paramedical students studying at Aja University of Medical Sciences were randomly selected and assigned to two groups of control and intervention. Spiritual health educational intervention was performed in the form of 2 workshops (4 to 6 hours) for the intervention group. Standard questionnaires of spiritual health and health-promoting lifestyle were completed in pre-test and post-test by both groups. Results: The findings indicate a significant effect of interprofessional spiritual health education on the lifestyle of military students. The highest effect for the variable of responsibility for health and nutrition with the observed effect was 0.49 and the least effective for the variable of interpersonal relationships with the observed t was 0.10. Conclusion: Considering the significant effect of interprofessional spiritual health education on students' lifestyle, it is necessary for education officials to take serious action to review and update the content and curricula and to include the topic of "spiritual health”.
