Background and Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the role of spiritual health in predicting the mental vulnerability of staff of Birjand Branch, Islamic Azad University, Birjand, Iran.
Materials and Methods: This descriptive correlational study included 123 staff who were randomly selected based on Morgan's table and completed the Pulotzin and Ellison Spiritual Health Questionnaires and Mental Symptoms. The obtained data were analyzed in SPSS statistical software (version 21) using mean±SD, Pearson correlation test, and multiple regression analysis.
Results: The findings showed a significant relationship between the total score of spiritual health and mental vulnerability. Among the subscales, depression, hypersensitivity, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, and aggression were mostly correlated with resilience in descending order (P <0.001). Moreover, the results of linear regression analysis showed that spiritual health was able to predict the degree of psychological vulnerability and its subscales (P<0.001).
Conclusion: It can be concluded that an increase in spiritual health can lead to a decrease in mental disorders. The results of this study can also be used to diagnose the extent of psychological damage in the staff of Birjand Branch, Islamic Azad University, Birjand, Iran, and plan the necessary psychological interventions in this target group.
