Abstract

Background: Spiritual well-being is the newest dimension of health, which is placed along with the physical, mental, and social aspects of health. Since soldiers in military barracks are exposed to multiple psychological pressures, their psychological well-being can be affected. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the spiritual well-being and psychological well-being and the relationship between these two concepts among soldiers in military service. Methods: A descriptive-analytical study was conducted at a military barracks in Iran in 2019. The study population included 301 soldiers selected using a convenience sampling method. Data were collected using three questionnaires for data on sociodemographic, psychological well-being, and spiritual well-being. Results: The results showed that soldiers' spiritual well-being (Mean ± SD: 100.6 ± 12, 30, range: 50 – 120) and Psychological well-being (PWB) (Mean ± SD: 85.85 ± 7.91, range: 48 – 104) were at high levels. Furthermore, a significant correlation was observed between spiritual well-being and psychological well-being (P value< 0.001, r = 0.41). Conclusion: Considering the correlation between spiritual well-being and psychological well-being among soldiers in military service, it is possible to improve their psychological well-being by promoting spiritual well-being. In this regard, more interventional and combination studies are recommended in the field of psychological well-being and spiritual well-being.
军营士兵的精神和心理健康:以伊朗为例
背景:精神健康是健康的最新维度,它与健康的身体、心理和社会方面一起被放置。由于军营士兵面临多重心理压力,其心理健康会受到影响。目的:探讨现役军人的精神幸福感和心理幸福感及其相互关系。方法:2019年在伊朗某军营进行描述性分析研究。研究人群包括301名士兵,采用方便抽样方法。采用社会人口、心理健康和精神健康三种调查问卷收集数据。结果:结果显示,士兵精神幸福感(Mean±SD: 100.6±12,30,范围:50 ~ 120)和心理幸福感(PWB) (Mean±SD: 85.85±7.91,范围:48 ~ 104)处于较高水平。此外,精神幸福感与心理幸福感之间存在显著相关(P值< 0.001,r = 0.41)。结论:考虑到军人精神幸福感与心理幸福感之间的相关性,通过促进军人精神幸福感来改善军人心理幸福感是可能的。在这方面,建议在心理健康和精神健康领域进行更多的介入性和组合性研究。
