Abstract:
The present paper seeks to find a valid, reliable, flexible and researchable tool in terms of spiritual intelligence and spiritualistic approach. To this end, the short version of "integrated spiritual intelligence scale" was chosen and translated into Persian. Then it was distributed among 414 university students (275 female and 139 male) in Gilan University, who were selected through multi-stage cluster sampling. The results of principal components analysis by varimax and promax rotation with the criterion of "high recognition ability and pure factor loading and higher than 0.40" proved the value of 40 items to be contributed in the body of final scale. So, seven factors (internal-based orientation, pious hope, openness, meaning-seeking, relationship-orientation, internal stability and adjustment) were obtained, which justified %48 of variance of whole questionnaire. Using t-scores, the norm and cut amplitude of target scale with 40 items were determined and two parallel versions with 20 items, comparable statistical parameters and psychometric features, and similar factor loads were developed.
چکیده و کلیدواژه فارسی (Persian)
Title :بازسازي مقياس يكپارچه هوش معنوي: اعتباريابي، رواسازي، بررسي ساختار عاملي و فرآوري نسخه‌هاي موازي
Abstract:
هوش معنوی «توانایی فطری و تجربه پذیرِ آدمی در افزایش سازگاری از طریق کنش ها و دریافت های معنوی» است. تلاش برای دست یابی به ابزار اندازه گیری معتبر، روا، منعطف و پژوهش پذیر در این زمینه و رویکرد معنویت گرایانه، هدف اصلی این پژوهش است.از این رو، نسخه‌ی کوتاه «مقیاس یکپارچه هوش معنوی» برگزیده و به فارسی برگردانده شد و در اختیار 414 تن از داشجویان دانشگاه گیلان (275 دختر و 139 پسر)، با روش نمونه گیری خوشه ای چند مرحله ای انتخاب شده بودند، قرار گرفت. با تحلیل سؤالات مقیاس بر پایه محاسبه قدرت تشخیص، و حذف برخی سؤالات، 7 عامل «جهت گیریِ درون بنیاد، امیدِ مؤمنانه، پذیرش، معناجویی، پیوندگرایی، ثبات درونی و همسازی» به دست آمد که بر روی هم 48 درصد واریانس کل پرسش نامه را تبیین می کرد. همچنین با بهره گرفتن از روش نمره های T، هنجار و دامنه‌ی برش مقیاس آماج 40 گویه ای تعیین شد و دو نسخه موازی 20 گویه ای با مشخصه های آماری و ویژگی های روان سنجیِ مقایسه پذیر و بارهای عاملی همسان فراهم آمد.
