This study explores the associations between spiritual beliefs and practices, religiosity, and spiritual well-being for Jordanian Arab Muslim university students. A convenience sample of 553 students was recruited from northern Jordan. The findings showed that participants with greater spiritual beliefs and practices and religiosity were more likely to have better spiritual well-being, religious well-being, and existential well-being. Only income had a significant effect on the spiritual well-being and existential well-being. In conclusion, the findings revealed that spirituality and religiosity are important to the lives of young Arab Muslims, which has potential implications for well-being.

“…perceived spirituality, not to be confused with religious views) correlated positively with Hope/Optimism, which validates the notion that spiritual people have a more positive attitude towards life. Rovers and Kocum (2010) consider that hope is one of the three facets of spirituality, and the remaining two are: faith and capacity for love. With regard to the Hope domain, the latter plays an existential role in life-one of constructing meaning- (Rovers and Kocum 2010).…”

In the opinion of Park (2011), it is possible for spirituality to act in the daily construction of meaning, and according to Emmons (2003), there appears to be a positive relation between spirituality and existential issues aimed at personal goals.…”

There is some evidence of the relationship between spirituality and quality of life, but there are few bibliographic references on these constructs for patients suffering from mental illness; thus, this study was aimed at revealing the possible role of spiritual outlooks as a protective factor in these individuals. The sample consisted of 96 Portuguese psychiatric patients, selected from a psychiatric hospital and assessed based on parameters for quality of life, spirituality and mindfulness. The data support some theories about the nature of the spirituality. Spiritual beliefs are poorly correlated with the quality of life index, and there is a moderate association between these beliefs and some aspects of mindfulness. It is suggested that a spiritual outlook of psychiatric patients should be taken into account in psychological interventions.
