摘要

本研究係利用自擬的靈性需求量表，探討中部某校護理教師及民國86年應屆畢業護生之靈性需求，及影響靈性需求之相關因素。共發出問卷400份，回收之有效問卷393份，有效回收率為98.25%。研究結果發現: (1) 有半數以上之師生(＞53.8% )均呈現有靈性需求之狀況，並希望能有相關靈性專業團體或課程協助他們，以促進師生靈性需求之滿足;(2) 大多數師生(＞93.5%)未曾在病患照顧上設立過相關靈性層面問題的處理，最主要原因是了解其重要性，但確實不清楚如何做起;(3) 祈求、信物、有個人信念、對神的信賴及感受神的愛等5項靈性需求，師生均呈現可得到較多靈性的滿足; (4)在宗教信仰、愛與被愛、活著的目的、死亡的意義及生命的目標等5項變項與靈性需求間有顯著差異，其餘個人屬性無顯著差異。本研究結果建議未來臨床之靈性護理研究，並提供護理教育課程設計及靈性照護之參考。
