Background and Purpose: Spirituality and social responsibility are among the factors affecting the health of communities. This study aimed to investigate the relationship of spirituality and social responsibility with adherence to health guidelines during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Materials and Methods: The present study followed a descriptive cross-sectional correlational methodology. The statistical population included all Iranians aged 15 to 64 years in 2021, from which 421 people were selected through convenience sampling. Data collection instruments were Spirituality Questionnaire (Parsian & Dunning, 2009), Social Responsibility Questionnaire (Schuyt, 2004), and a researcher-made Adherence to Health Guidelines questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by the SPSS software (version 16) using the Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression statistical tests.
Results: The results of the Pearson correlation coefficient test showed a significant relationship between spirituality (r=0.320, P=0.000) and social responsibility (r=0.226, P=0.000) with and adherence to health guidelines. The findings of the regression analysis test also revealed that spirituality and social responsibility predicted 14% of variable changes in adherence to health guidelines.
Conclusion: Since spirituality and social responsibility can be taught, it is recommended that health policymakers and public education providers promote adherence to health guidelines during the Coronavirus pandemic through these variables.
