Journal Title: Biomedical Journal of Scientific & Technical Research (BJSTR) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 5
Abstract
This study aimed to determine the level of spiritual intelligence and adherence to the research ethical standards among academic researchers, and to reveal the relative contribution of spiritual intelligence in predicting adherence to the research ethical standards, as well as to identify the differences in both spiritual intelligence and adherence to the research ethical standards due to (gender, scientific degree) variables. The researchers selected a random sample of (203) of the academic researchers. Their ages ranged between (32-50) years. The researchers applied the scale of spiritual intelligence and the scale of adherence to the research ethical standards. The results showed that there was a low level of spiritual intelligence, but it found an average level of adherence to the research ethical standards. Also, there were statistically significant differences (0.05) among the mean scores in spiritual presence and spiritual intelligence due to gender in favor of females, but not found a statistically significant differences in spiritual mindfulness, spiritual abilities and adherence to the research ethical standards. The results also found statistically significant differences in spiritual mindfulness, spiritual abilities and adherence to the research ethical standards due to scientific degree in favor of professor’s researches. The results of the simple regression analysis also indicated that spiritual intelligence is a significant and powerful indicator of adherence to the research ethical standards.
