Abstract

ABSTRACT The study examined the relationship between spirituality, identity development, and maladjustment variables. A total of 1,016 college student participants (53.9% female) were recruited from a major state university in the southern United States, the structural equation modeling revealed that aspects of identity development mediated the relationship between certain aspects of spirituality (spiritual transcendence, spiritual search, and spiritual function) and certain maladjustment variables (existential anxiety, identity distress, and internalizing symptoms). Identity exploration and identity commitment items appeared to have some unique relationships with the other variables, as did the various aspects of spirituality. Implications for measurement and future research are discussed.

灵性和调整:身份的作用

摘要本研究探讨了精神、同一性发展和适应不良变量之间的关系。本研究从美国南部一所主要州立大学招募了1016名大学生(女性占53.9%)，通过结构方程模型分析发现，认同发展的各个方面介导了灵性的某些方面(精神超越、精神探索和精神功能)与某些失调变量(存在焦虑、身份困扰和内化症状)之间的关系。身份探索和身份承诺项目似乎与其他变量有一些独特的关系，就像灵性的各个方面一样。讨论了测量和未来研究的意义。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Spirituality in Mental Health is an interdisciplinary professional journal (retiled from American Journal of Pastoral Counseling to better reflect its broader scope) that is devoted to the scholarly study of spirituality as a resource for counseling and psychotherapeutic disciplines. This peer-reviewed quarterly journal seeks to enhance the understanding of spirituality as a core component of human well-being in individual, relational, and communal life. Leading authorities provide insights into research and effective therapy in an interdisciplinary dialog that crosses the disciplines of psychology, spirituality, theology, sociology, cultural analysis, and other fields.
