Studying the Impact of Spiritual Intelligence on Job Engagement

While the idea of job engagement is extensively discussed in relation to other influences, there is yet little discussion on how spiritual and religious issues might influence job engagement. This research is an attempt to fulfil this need. The aim of this study is to examine job engagement and its correlation with spiritual intelligence of nurses. This cross sectional-analytic study was carried out on 179 hospital nurses in Shiraz (Faghihi hospital). Data were gathered by a questionnaire and were analysed using statistical software SPSS. T-test findings suggest that hospital nurses of Faghihi in Shiraz city as job engagement and spiritual intelligence are above of the average of 3.5, however, such results often are not unexpected in society where people believe in religious values. Also the Pearson correlation test showed a significant and positive correlation between spiritual intelligence and job engagement.
