Self Awareness, Self Concept and Spiritual Intelligence Among Nursing Students : The Mediating Role of Spiritual Well-being

Introduction: The ISIQ of nursing students dealing with mental health concerns has been affected by their level of self-awareness and self-concept. Little is known about how spiritual well-being mediates the relationship between nursing students' self-awareness, self-concept, and spiritual intelligence. Materials and methods: A convenience sample of 160 nursing students from Indonesia were used in this research, which used a correlational cross-sectional design. Analyzes included Pearson's r, bivariate analysis, and multistage regression. The following items were used to gather data: Self Awareness Questioner (SAQ), the Nurses Self-Concept Instrument (NSCI), the Indonesian Questioner Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS), and ISIQ. Results: Both self-awareness and self-concept were positively correlated with spiritual wellness. The mediation links were determined using path analysis modeling. A respondent's ISIQ scores were impacted by SAQ, SNCI, and SWBQ. SNCI (β = 0.286, p < 0.001), SWBQ (β = 0.263, p < 0.001), and self-awareness (β = 0.205, p = 0.002) all contributed to an improvement in ISIQ scores. One way in which SWBQ mediated the connection between ISIQ, SNCI, and self-awareness was via its existence. Both self-awareness (SNCI) and the presence of SWBQ had a direct impact on ISIQ, with the latter also showing improvement. According to the research, nursing students' ISIQ relies on their ability to maintain SWBQ. Conclusion: This is why it's crucial for nursing students at Hafshawaty Zainul Hasan University to work on their spiritual intelligence by developing their sense of self, their self-concept, and their spiritual health.
