Ruslan, Ruslan, Andi Bunyamin, and Andi Achruh. "Pendidikan Spiritualisme dalam Perspektif Al-Quran." Al-Musannif 4, no. 2 (December 31, 2022): 101–18. http://dx.doi.org/10.56324/al-musannif.v4i2.72.
Abstract:
This article aims to analyze spiritualism education in the Quran. The discussion focuses on four sub-discussions, namely: (1) The meaning of spiritualism in the Quran; (2) spiritual aspects of the Quran; (3) methods of Quran spirituality; and (4) the implications of Quran spirituality. This literature review documents various books, journals, and other research results as data sources. The collected data were then analyzed using content analysis techniques. The results of the study show that the concept of spiritualism in the perspective of the Koran is related to the world of the spirit, close to God, contains mysticism and interiority, and is equated with the essentials. Based on tracing the verses of the Quran, the three dimensions of spirituality in it are the dimension of transcendental, the dimension of norms, and the dimension of values. There are three methods of Quranic spirituality, namely tazakkur (remembrance of Allah), tafakkur (thinking about nature), and tadabbur (thinking about revelations or verses of Allah). The implications of the spirituality of the Koran are manifested in two terms in tasawuf spiritualism, namely al-maqāmat (the path to Sufism) and al-aḥwāl (the Sufi character).

Abstract:
Abstract. This article tries to explore the theological model of political spirituality in the context of terrorism in Indonesia. This search is done using the literature study method. In the process, the authors found that each age has a pattern or model of theology of their respective political spirituality. But in the present, by elaborating on the results of literature studies and paying attention to the context of terrorism in Indonesia and the historical journey of theological view of political spirituality in the church, the author shows that we need to pay attention to the five foundations of political spirituality theology, namely to realize a secular faith, promote moral values and political mediation, love justice and peace, serve the public interest, rule through service and love. These five foundations are expected to respond to various terrorism in Indonesia.Abstrak. Artikel ini mencoba menelusuri model teologi spiritualitas politik dalam konteks maraknya terorisme di Indonesia. Penelusuran ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode studi pustaka. Dalam prosesnya, penulis menemukan bahwa setiap zaman memiliki corak atau model berteologi spiritualitas politiknya masing-masing. Namun pada masa sekarang, dengan mengelaborasi hasil studi pustaka dan memperhatikan konteks terorisme di Indonesia serta perjalanan sejarah pandang teologi spiritualitas politik di gereja, penulis menunjukkan kita perlu memperhatikan lima fondasi teologi spiritualitas politik yaitu mewujudkan iman yang sekular, mengusung nilai-nilai moral dan mediasi politik, mencintai keadilan dan perdamaian, mengabdi kepentingan umum, berkuasa melalui pelayanan dan kasih. Kelima fondasi ini diharapkan dapat menanggapi berbagai terorisme di Indonesia.

Ríos-Pérez, Elimari, Segundo Castro-Gonzáles, and Nora Picón-García. "Benefits of spirituality in the workplace." ESIC Market 53, no. 2 (July 11, 2022): e284. http://dx.doi.org/10.7200/esicm.53.284.
Abstract:
Purpose: Existing literature has uncovered many benefits of spirituality in the workplace. However, building a sound theory of spirituality in the workplace requires testing its benefits in narrower contexts. We test spirituality’s effects on employees’ well-being and the company’s relationship with customers in the context of the retail industry in Puerto Rico.
Design / methodology / approach: We developed a model using Structural Equation Model-Partial Least Square. Then, we use the expert debriefing triangulation technique to assess the validity and reliability of our sample of 131 employees.
Findings: This research shows spirituality in the workplace has positive effects on employees’ well-being and the company’s relationship with its customers in the retail industry of Puerto Rico.
Originality: Our model links spirituality in the workplace with two variables of (Heskett et al., 1994) Profit Chain Value. Although our subject has been widely studied, literature in narrow contexts is needed to develop a unified theory. We contribute insight into spirituality in a narrow context plus a quantitative model to be used when large samples are unfeasible.

Maryati, Wiwik, Sri Hartini, and Gancar Candra Premananto. "The Role of Religiosity and Spirituality on Impulsive Buying." al-Uqud : Journal of Islamic Economics 5, no. 1 (December 30, 2020): 119–50. http://dx.doi.org/10.26740/al-uqud.v5n1.p119-150.
Abstract:
This article aims to analyze religiosity and spirituality's roles to prevent the impulsivity of buying. Impulse buying is an irrational, unplanned, spontaneous buying behavior aimed to seek pleasure and emotional fulfillment. The research method is a literature study of journals related to religiosity and spirituality in customer decision making. The study results concluded that several factors cause impulsive buying, such as less self-control, hedonic lifestyle, and materialism. Furthermore, there are significant roles of religiosity and spirituality in encouraging robust self-regulation to prevent impulse buying. The higher a person's religiosity and spirituality, the better they build powerful self-control for impulse buying. This research is expected to contribute research in consumer behavior with an approach of religiosity and spirituality.

Abstract:
Cases of violence and discrimination against marginalized people are a condition that still often occurs in our society. In this situation, the role of spirituality becomes something fundamental in helping this social challenge, as well as with Christian spirituality, how Christians can apply human rights in this issue. The discussion in this article uses qualitative research with a literature review approach. The results of the study show that mature Christian spirituality through the source, namely the Lord Jesus, is manifested by the work of the Holy Spirit to be able to understand and interpret every teaching of God's Word, then it is applied in behavior and actions. The values of Christian spirituality in respecting God, respect for others, justice and love are the basic human rights for church members against the marginalized. Christian spirituality must touch the church, family, and school segments to continue to form church members so that they have mature Christian spirituality so that they are able to apply it to the marginalized. AbstrakKasus kekerasan dan diskriminasi kepada kaum marginal merupakan sebuah keadaan yang masih kerap terjadi di masyarakat kita. Dalam situasi ini, peran spiritulaitas menjadi sesuatu yang fundamental dalam membantu tantangan sosial ini, demikian juga dengan spiritualitas orang Kristen, bagaimana orang Kristen dapat mengaplikasikan HAM dalam persoalan itu.

Hasil dari penelitian menunjukan bahwa spiritualitas Kristen yang matang melalui sumber yaitu Tuhan Yesus yang diwujudkan dengan karya Roh Kudus untuk dapat memahami dan menginterpretasikan setiap penagaja- ran Firman Tuhan, kemudian di aplikasikan dalam perilaku dan tindakan. Nilai spiritualitas Kristen dalam menghargai Allah, menghargai sesama, keadilan dan kasih menjadi dasar HAM bagi warga gereja terhadap kaum marginal. Spiritualitas Kristen harus menyentuh segmen gereja, keluarga dan sekolah untuk terus membentuk warga gereja supaya memiliki spiritualitas Kristen yang matang sehingga mampu mengaplikasikannya kepada kaum marginal.

Abstract:
For a long time, the Western idea of life has kept the outer real world away from the inner world of spirituality. I have always felt that combining two could be damaging. There is a growing realization by the modern management think tanks that workspace spirituality has a definite role in improving performance and productivity while still ensuring employee engagement, motivation, commitment, and fulfilling his individual spiritual needs. Loyal personnel are the greatest treasured means to achieve a feat in the long run for any enterprise. Having committed employees enhances the competitive edge of any organization by lowering the rates of people leaving the organization and quitting their jobs. There has been limited work done to study the interplay of spirituality at the workplace and organizational commitment of employees how one correlates with the other. This work attempts to review the contemporary peer-reviewed literature on the association between workplace spirituality and organizational commitment. In this critical appraisal of contemporary literature, we look at the role of workspace spirituality in improving employee commitment. Our review looked at various measurable dimensions of workspace spirituality and employee commitment, which have been used by recent empirical questionnaire-based studies and their findings.

Analisa: Journal of Social Science and Religion 6, no. 02 (December 31, 2021): 147–64. http://dx.doi.org/10.18784/analisa.v6i02.1427.
Abstract:
Success is everyone's dream, but not a few people retreat and even fail because they are not ready to face the process of achieving that success. Joseph is the son who is dearest to his father, but this makes his brother hate him. Joseph is a character in the Bible, and Joseph realized that all the thoughts of his brothers, all the difficulties he experienced, were solely in God's design, and God had a good purpose in the difficulties he experienced. In a sense, Joseph's personal spirituality determines how he can have an adversity quotient so that Joseph became a tough person in facing all the challenges of his life. This study aims to analyze personal spirituality and adversity quotient. The research method used is content analysis. Research questions: what is the relationship between personal spirituality and Adversity Quotient? and to what extent can personal spirituality make someone strong in AQ? The result showed that personal spirituality and adversity quotient is related to one another. Based on the text analysis, it was found that the relationship between personal spirituality and adversity quotient on content: personal spirituality that comes from family influence, personal spirituality that comes from character, Joseph's spirituality in facing challenges (family, female, wealth and power), and personal spirituality in the knowledge of God and understanding His plan thus forming his adversity quotient.

Abstract:
This article seeks to describe a professional, personal, and cultural understanding of spirituality in nursing care. It revisits and refines the many concept clarifications of spirituality in our practice discipline, while reflecting on the potential meanings and learnings from Ismaili tenets and principles within a personal nursing practice. Through a review of mainstream literature in conjunction with nontraditional literature, the implicit is made explicit in terms of similarities and differences, as well as opportunities for further exploration. The summary brings forward the persistent gaps and questions on critical areas such as creating the “place” and “operationalizing” of spirituality. These continue to challenge and intrigue nurses seeking spiritual comfort for both themselves and their clients.

Abstract:
The critical review of the literature describes the definition clarity of spirituality, religion, and faith. These three terms are interchangeably used in the literature. However, each of these terms has its own definitions. For example, the term spirituality has more than 13 conceptual components. It is abstract and subjective and is different from religion and faith. Spirituality can be a connection to God, nature, others, and surrounding. Spirituality is associated with quality and meaning in life. Conversely, religion is attributed to traditional values and practices related to a certain group of people or faith. Religion is guided by tradition, rules, and culture. Religion is defined as a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices. Religion is the service or worship of God or the supernatural. Faith is often associated with religion and spirituality. Faith is more personal, subjective, and deeper than organized religion and relates to the relationship with God. The concept of spirituality lacks a professional understanding. It is imperative that the holistic view of nursing must strive to understand the definition of spirituality.

Corr, Charles A. "Spirituality in Death-Related Literature for Children." OMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying 48, no. 4 (June 2004): 365–81. http://dx.doi.org/10.2190/kfd0-7ert-4mwg-174q.
Abstract:
Elsewhere (see “Bereavement, Grief, and Mourning in Death-Related Literature for Children” in this special issue) I have explained that as I prepared a series of annotated bibliographies on death-related literature for children and adolescents (Corr, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003a, 2003b), I realized that this literature was rich in many not-very-well explored topics. In particular, it struck me that themes related to spirituality often appear in this literature. Nevertheless, it does not appear that any formal studies of the spiritual dimensions that appear in this body of literature have been published in any of the major professional journals in the field of dying, death, and bereavement. In this article, I offer an initial attempt at rectifying that apparent gap in attention. I also hope to stimulate increased appreciation of this and other interesting facets of death-related literature that is intended to be read by or with children.

Abstract:
This research aims to describe and to define the importance of spirituality as a mediator in the global pandemic situation of COVID-19 in Pakistan while having positive correlation with resilience and inverse with hopelessness. The correlational research design was used and data was gathered by simple random sampling and there was a use of standardized psychological instruments to measure the variables. The participants were (N=540) Pakistani general population (male and female) with the age range of 18–60. The outcomes revealed that resilience was positively correlated with spirituality (r=0.72; p <0.01) while spiritualty is negatively correlated with hopelessness (r=-0.76; p <0.01) and resilience was negatively correlated with hopelessness (r=-0.78, p <0.01). Mediation analysis shows that spirituality performed a strong intermediating role between resilience and hopelessness the direct effect of hopelessness on resilience was -5.9** whereas the indirect effect through spirituality was -1.7** and the total effect size was – 7.6**. It is revealed that spirituality has a strong impact on the resilience behavior and reduces the hopelessness even in the worldwide disastrous situation. This study enhances the literature related to the psychological research and prompts the role of spiritual coping strategies especially in the state of uncertainty like coronavirus pandemic.

Abstract:
AbstractThis essay is an attempt to sketch a preliminary map of the emerging dialogue between spirituality and the contemporary literature of nature. This includes: (1) a consideration of their distinctive approaches to the mapping of the sacred landscape; (2) an exploration of some of the ambiguities and tensions within the literature of nature toward matters of religion; (3) an outline of recent developments within the discipline of spirituality that enable scholars in that field to respond more thoughtfully to questions raised by nature writers; (4) a description of the genres found in the burgeoning literature of nature writing and the themes that make it a useful resource and conversation partner for spirituality; (5) an evaluation of three prominent themes of contemporary nature writing—relationship, mystery, and moral responsibility—of particular importance for developing a contemporary spirituality of nature.

Abstract:
People with mental health problem in Malaysia require access to spiritual care from their mental health services. However, the literature, which is dominated by Western scholars, brings the broad conception of spirituality into debate, which does not fit the paradigm of the religious worldview in countries such as Malaysia. This paper provides a narrative overview of the tensions inherent in the concept of spirituality as delivered in the literature. It begins a discussion on the place of spirituality in mental health care while highlighting the problematic concept of spirituality currently seen in the literature. This paper thus provides recommendations for future research on the need for particularising the concept of spirituality within mental healthcare in Malaysia.

Abstract:
Abstract This article aims to describe how organizational spirituality has been dealt with in national and international research. Thus, a review of literature was carried out, based on a systematic search on literature on the Scopus and SciELO databases. The survey revealed 551 articles, but only 118 were available as full-documents. After reading the articles, 72 were selected for analysis. From the selected articles, seven major themes were identified and are covered in this article: factors that encourage spirituality to develop in organizations; the differences between spirituality and religion; the definition/concept of organizational spirituality; the benefits of spirituality for organizations; the dimensions of spirituality in organizations; the values of spirituality in organizations, and ways of identifying/measuring spirituality in organizations. In general, it was found that the theme of organizational spirituality is gaining momentum among academics and managers and can no longer be ignored. Although research performed until now has provided encouraging results, more research is required, including empirical research, in order to elucidate and consolidate an understanding of the theme, as well as its importance for people and organizations.

Abstract:
The spirituality of work in secular circles is currently developing in such a way and mostly has a positive impact on the world of work itself, because of its nature which provides a balance between work and all its demands, with humans in their inner satisfaction and deepest desire to fulfill and serve the highest goals set forth. beyond existence. Efforts to explore the spirituality of Christian work have become an urgent need, not because they want to compete with the spirituality of work that is currently prevailing secularly, but as a form of fulfilling the Christian missionary call to "witness, preach the Gospel, make disciples of all nations." Apart from being an effort to fulfill the call of Christian mission, this also helps those who live the spirituality of Christian work to have a quality work ethic in their workplace, because they do it productively, independently and spiritually. Through the literature study method, it is concluded that spiritual entrepreneurship is found to be the right choice that can meet the criteria and forms of Christian work spirituality needed.AbstrakSpiritualitas kerja dikalangan sekuler saat ini berkembang sedemikian rupa dan kebanyakan memberikan dampak yang positif bagi dunia kerja itu sendiri, oleh karena sifatnya yang memberi keseimbangan antara kerja dan segala tuntutannya, dengan manusia di dalam kepuasan batin serta keinginan terdalamnya untuk memenuhi dan mengabdi pada tujuan tertinggi yang melampaui keberadaanya. Upaya menggali spiritualitas kerja Kristen menjadi sebuah kebutuhan yang mendesak dilakukan, bukan karena ingin menyaingi spiritualitas kerja yang saat ini sedang berlaku secara sekuler, melainkan sebagai bentuk pemenuhan panggilan misi orang Kristen untuk “menjadi saksi, memberitakan Injil, memuridkan segala bangsa.” Selain sebagai upaya pemenuhan panggilan misi Kristiani, hal ini turut membantu mereka yang menghidupi spiritualitas kerja Kristen untuk memiliki etos kerja berkualitas di tempat kerjanya, karena dikerjakannya secara produktif, mandiri dan rohani. Melalui metode studi kepustakaan maka disimpulkan bahwa entrepreneurship rohani di dapati sebagai pilihan tepat yang dapat memenuhi kriteria dan bentuk dari spiritualitas kerja Kristen yang dibutuhkan.

Abstract:
The biblical aspects in Ukrainian economic literature of the 20th and 21st century and its preconditions in European economic literature have been examined. The economic theory has been rethought in the context of Christian economic ethics. The 21st century is, in a way, a result of spirituality of the previous generations, and most of all Christian spirituality. A number of socio-economic researches (such as labor processes, the study of wealth and poverty features) have shown that within the existing paradigm of science it is almost impossible to explain their nature and patterns of operation. The development of Christian economic ethics may be just the impetus not only for fairly significant change in economic thinking, but also for the further development of public opinion in general.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: There is robust literature on spirituality in nursing. Despite the unique needs of those with serious mental illness, there has been little exploration of spirituality in the context of nursing care for this population. Lacking a well-defined concept of spirituality in psychiatric care, mental health nurses often struggle to provide optimal, holistic care. AIMS: The aim of this concept analysis was to review definitions and descriptions of spirituality in the psychiatric nursing literature to synthesize a usable definition to inform practice and provide a basis for future study. METHOD: Beth Rodgers’s evolutionary concept analysis method was followed to inductively derive a definition of spirituality in psychiatric nursing care. Steps included identification of the concept, setting, and sample; synthesis of key attributes, antecedents, and consequences from the literature; and a discussion of implications. A search in the psychiatric nursing literature (1998-2019) included literature reviews, case studies, concept analyses, qualitative interview studies, and quantitative survey research. RESULTS: Spirituality in psychiatric nursing was defined by attributes of a search for life meaning and purpose and a sense of connectedness. Spirituality in the practice of psychiatric nursing was a result of value-influenced thinking and a capability for interaction with others. Consequences included consolation and positive or negative coping. CONCLUSIONS: A clearly defined concept of spirituality in psychiatric nursing can provide a basis for clinical confidence for nurses in identifying patient spiritual needs and choosing appropriate interventions to support those needs.

Abstract:
Abstract Literature documents positive effects of religion and spirituality on health including improved cognitive function, quality of life, and well-being. Extant research suggests that persons living with dementia (PWD) are more likely to have spiritual needs and rely on others to support their spiritual well-being than those without dementia. However, spiritual care is absent or minimally present in dementia care. To effectively address spiritual needs of PWDs, accurate screening and assessment is critical. We conducted an integrative review of the current literature on measures of religion and spiritualty for PWDs by searching five databases (ATLA Religion, CINAHL, PsychInfo, PubMed, and SocIndex) and identified 14 studies that were peer-reviewed original research articles focusing on assessment of religion/spirituality among PWDs and published between 2000-2020 in English. Most were conducted in Europe (n=7), included PWD in mild stage (n=68) from various settings, and were cross-sectional in design (n=8). Of a total of 17 measures identified, 6 were originally developed for the general population and then adapted for PWD, and only 3 were validated for PWD. A majority of the studies were limited in sample size, generalizability, methodological rigor, and measure validation. More research is needed using diverse samples and rigorous study designs to develop valid screening and assessment tools for this population. Improving religious and spiritual measures could greatly impact public health by improving quality of life for millions of individuals suffering from dementia and their caregivers who carry a heavy burden.

Abstract:
Within the hospice literature, spirituality and religion are usually defined in opposition to one another, with religion negatively associated with the external, authoritarian doctrines of Christianity and spirituality positively associated with the free search for truth, meaning, and authenticity. According to survey data, however, most Americans integrate spirituality and traditional religious commitments. The hospice literature is promoting spirituality to its own detriment by alienating potential patients and depriving religious patients of the resources that religious traditions and their affiliated religious communities have to offer.

Abstract:
This essay analyzes the discourses of spirituality represented in Jane Eyre within the context of the Evangelical upheaval in the Britain of Charlotte Brontë's childhood and the mixing of supernatural with Christian elements in the "popular religion" of early-nineteenth-century British rural society. In addition to a dominant Christian spiritualism and a supernatural spiritualism, however, a third discrete discourse is identified in the text-the discourse of spiritual love. The novel stages a contest between these three competing discourses. Christianity is itself conflictually represented, being torn between the repressive, masculine Evangelicalism of Mr. Brocklehurst and the healing communion (among women) represented by Helen Burns and the figure of "sympathy." The supernatural is equally conflicted: it is shown to empower Jane and to be a necessary vehicle for bringing Christian discourse in contact with the discourse of spiritual love, but then it is denied and left, like the madwoman in the attic, as the excluded term. Finally, spiritual love is offered by the text as that which solves these contradictions, revising and merging Christianity and the supernatural to produce a rejuvenated spirituality, one that fosters what is conceived of as the "whole" person, her need for mutual human relationship, her spiritual needs, and her desire.

Abstract:
Workplace spirituality is a novel concept and it has been identified as a unique way to improve organizational performance. On the other hand, many organizations are experiencing undesirable consequences of lack of workplace spirituality, such as employee stress, turnover, absenteeism, and lack of employee creativity. Hence, organizations are now focusing on developing workplace spirituality in the workplaces as it offers many advantages to organizations. Despite the growing interest on workplace spirituality, there is still a dearth of research on the topic of workplace spirituality. Literature suggests that employee innovative work behavior directly leads to enhance organizational performance and workplace spirituality leads to increase innovativeness and creativity of employees. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to fill the gap in literature, to a certain extent by proposing a conceptual model to examine the effect of workplace spirituality on employee innovative work behavior. Thus, it proposed that there is a positive effect of workplace spirituality on employee innovative work behavior. Consequently, intrinsic motivation from componential theory of creativity was integrated to identify the mediating effect of intrinsic motivation on the effect of workplace spirituality on innovative work behavior.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To review scientific literature relating to the spiritual dimension of children and adolescents with cancer. METHODS: We conducted an integrative literature review in the LILACS, SciELO, PsycINFO and MEDLINE databases in the period between 1990 to 2011. RESULTS: Twenty-one studies were analyzed and grouped into thematic categories: quality of life and elements of spirituality; alternative and complementary therapies: spirituality as a therapeutic resource; spirituality as a coping strategy and spirituality as an attribute of existential transformations. It was found that spirituality is present at different stages of the disease experience and that its forms of expression may vary, according to age and cognitive development. CONCLUSION: There is a scarcity of specific scales for this age range and a need for scientific production relating to the spiritual dimension of children and adolescents with cancer.

Abstract:
This paper attempts to reconsider the nature and function of the ‘spiritual’ dimension in literary texts and in literary study in the context of the present state of the discipline of literary studies. The present era is often defined as a ‘post-secular’ era, one in which themes of spirituality and mysticism are increasingly noticeable in literary works. The paper argues that to maintain its relevance to contemporary writers and readers, literary criticism has to (re-)address these themes in a concrete and effective way. The paper recommends a comparative approach to the discussion of spirituality and mysticism in contemporary literature and literary criticism. In order to carry effective analytical potential, this approach, the paper emphasizes, has to be developed from specific spiritual traditions. The paper first discusses the disciplinary crisis literary studies have always been exposed to since their inception as a discipline of study in academic institutes. It then reviews the current state of the discipline and describes how the discipline came to be dominated by scientific and social approaches. Finally, it suggests the reinstitutionof the ‘spiritual’ element in literary study as a way out from the state of crisis in the discipline of literary studies. The paper thus attempts to strengthen the disciplinary identify of literary studies while exploring interdisciplinary aspects of the study literature.

Abstract:
The concept of spirituality has started being included in therapy settings due to the new paradigms showing developments in the world of psychology in the late 20th century and in the 21st century. When examining the literature, many articles and books are seen to have been published related to the topic, and most of the studies have been carried out abroad. These performed studies have contributed new concepts and information to the literature by revealing how the concept of spirituality can be integrated with family therapies. This study has been prepared for the purposes of drawing the attention of researchers who conduct studies in Turkey based on systemic family therapy and of specialists who plan therapy sessions based the relevant theory to the topic and to provide the literature with a topic that finds no examples in the literature of Turkey. How the concept of spirituality can be used in harmony with the systemic family therapy approach and what the techniques of the spirituality-based systemic family therapy are have been prepared by being based on the many studies that have been published abroad. Before beginning the study, theoretical information and basic concepts primarily about systemic family therapies are provided, and then it moves on to spirituality-oriented systemic family therapy by briefly mentioning the concept of spirituality. How the concept of spirituality can be applied to systemic family therapy and the points and ethical situations to which counselors need to pay attention are also mentioned. Lastly, sample cases are shared by providing information about the techniques of using religious stories and spiritual dialogue, these techniques being used in spirituality-oriented systemic family therapies.

Abstract:
This essay problematizes the current discourses on spirituality and leadership, particularly in terms of how spirituality is defined. To this end, the authors provide a brief overview of the different definitions of spirituality as explicated in the literature on spirituality and leadership, identify the underlying epistemologies of these definitions, and discuss why epistemology matters when thinking about spirituality and leadership. Additionally, the authors outline how an “endarkened feminist epistemology” (Dillard, 2000) can assist our thinking about spirituality and leadership, and advance not a definition per se but perspectives to consider when teaching and conducting research on or about spirituality and leadership, and when practicing leadership that takes into account social justice.

Abstract:
Tobacco smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke are a major threat to human health worldwide. The effort to prevent tobacco use should be regarded as an important public health strategy. Given the significance of religion and spirituality in the daily life of more than 90% of the world's population, the relationship of religion and smoking should be seen as a critical research area. Religions are many and varied, but most value human well-being highly and so do not approve of tobacco use, even though they do not prohibit it entirely. In recent years, researchers have shown more interest in the subject of religion and health, including drug and tobacco use. Differences of focus and methodology notwithstanding, most studies have ascertained a deterrent role for religion as regards tobacco use, and several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the negative relationship between religion or spirituality and smoking. Many of the studies, however, suffer from shortcomings that need to be acknowledged and addressed, such as using nonstandard data-gathering tools, lack of a unified definition of religion or spirituality, and paucity of research in non-Christian and developing countries. Finally, the cross-sectional nature of many of the studies makes the meaningful interpretation of findings difficult.

Abstract:
Building on the social exchange theory, this paper proposes a model of the effects of workplace spirituality on job performance through the mediation effects of work engagement, affective commitment, and organizational trust. This quantitative-based research relies on structural equation modeling as an analysis technique. Data were collected from 207 faculty members working in the Palestinian higher education sector. Significant mediation effects of work engagement, affective commitment, and organizational trust were found in the relationship between workplace spirituality and job performance of academic staff. This research is original in two ways. First, very few studies examine the impact of workplace spirituality on job performance, a variable that has received less attention in the spirituality literature than organizational performance. Second, the study advances the literature on workplace spirituality by examining the concept in a non-Western academic context.

Abstract:
<p>Children with intellectual disabilities are often treated as having less value. Increased awareness of holistic personhood, however, brought questions to the need to facilitate spirituality in these children, besides facilitating the development of other aspects. Previous studies argued that children with intellectual disabilities have potentials to develop spiritually despite the very few studies addressing the spirituality in children with intellectual disabilities. This literature review, then, aims to explore methods and interventions to facilitate spirituality in children with intellectual disabilities, through a comprehensive analysis and synthesis of the themes drawn from existing literatures and research studies. After the analysis and synthesis process, four themes emerged for intervention methods to facilitate spiritual development in intellectually challenged children, which are: narratives (from Scripture and personal narratives); symbols, liturgies, and rituals; arts and kinesthetic learning; and community, group, and social support. Further research studies, especially using quantitative methods, are encouraged to be conducted in the future in order to assess the efficacy of each method of interventions.</p>
