This research study explored the relationship between spiritual health and perceived stress in a sample of university undergraduate students. Specifically, the study investigated two research questions: (1)�Can spiritual health be enhanced through a planned educational intervention, and (2)�Does a relationship exist between level of spiritual health and level of perceived stress. A quasi- experimental, nonequivalent control group design was used to compare three study groups---the Treatment Group which consisted of students enrolled in section 1 of a stress management course, Comparison Group I which consisted of students enrolled in section 2 of a stress management course, and Comparison Group II which consisted of students enrolled in a family studies course.

520 $a This research study explored the relationship between spiritual health and perceived stress in a sample of university undergraduate students. Specifically, the study investigated two research questions: (1)�Can spiritual health be enhanced through a planned educational intervention, and (2)�Does a relationship exist between level of spiritual health and level of perceived stress. A quasi- experimental, nonequivalent control group design was used to compare three study groups---the Treatment Group which consisted of students enrolled in section 1 of a stress management course, Comparison Group I which consisted of students enrolled in section 2 of a stress management course, and Comparison Group II which consisted of students enrolled in a family studies course.
520 $a Each group was administered a pre-test at the beginning of the spring semester to assess levels of spiritual health and levels of perceived stress. Throughout the semester, the Treatment Group was exposed to a stress management curriculum that entailed a semester-long component focused on spiritual health. Exposure to spiritual health issues took place through specially-designed writing assignments, mini-projects and journaling. At the end of the semester, a post-test was administered to reassess levels of spiritual health and perceived stress. Instrumentation consisted of Howden's Spirituality Assessment Scale (SAS) and Craig, Hancock and Craig's Lifestyle Appraisal Questionnaire (LAQ), part II.
520 $a A total of 115 undergraduate students participated in this study. Analyses of the study's data revealed the following: (1)�students in the Treatment Group were found to exhibit significantly higher scores on the SAS at post-test than either Comparison Group I or II, (2)�scores on the SAS were significantly and inversely related to scores on the LAQ, part II thus indicating that higher levels of spiritual health were related to lower levels of perceived stress, and (3)�students in the Treatment Group were found to have significantly lower scores on the LAQ, part II at post-test than Comparison Group II.
