The Spiritual and Psychological Impact of Belief: Self-Efficacy and Intrinsic Spirituality in the Modern Workplace

This quantitative, correlational study examined the predictive relationship between employees' general self-efficacy and intrinsic spirituality and their work attitudes and work performance. Data was collected via a 37-item online survey administered through LinkedIn, targeting professionals across industries. A total of 132 participants responded, with 127 meeting eligibility criteria for analysis. Sequential multiple regression analyses revealed significant positive relationships between both predictor variables and the criterion variables. General self-efficacy emerged as the stronger predictor, explaining 29.7% and 27.3% of the variance in work attitudes and performance, respectively. Intrinsic spirituality, while less influential, contributed 2.5% and 3.1% to the variance in these outcomes. The combined models explained 45.5% of the variance in work attitudes and 43.9% in work performance, demonstrating the meaningful roles of self-efficacy and spirituality in shaping workplace outcomes. The findings suggested that general self-efficacy and intrinsic spirituality significantly enhance workplace attitudes and performance. These results provide actionable insights for organizational leaders and HR practitioners aiming to foster employee engagement and productivity.
