The study aims at describing different meanings of patients' spiritual experiences and their impact on patients' health in mental healthcare. The different contents of patients' spiritual experiences are often understood by caregivers as the expressions of patients' religious speculation. The study has a hermeneutic approach, inspired by Gadamer. Its theoretical pre-understanding is Caring Science perspective, according to which the human being is a unity of body, psyche and spirit. The sources are 32 stories selected from William James' book (1956) The Varieties of Religious Experience. They are hermeneutically interpreted and discussed in the light of international research on patients' spirituality to gain a deeper understanding. The results are three main themes: (i) the positive meanings of spirituality, (ii) the negative meanings of spirituality and (iii) the both negative and positive meaning of spirituality. Therefore, it is a very important task for mental caregivers to address patients' spiritual dimension to help them adequately.
该研究旨在描述患者精神体验的不同含义及其在心理保健中对患者健康的影响。患者精神体验的不同内容往往被护理人员理解为患者宗教思辨的表达。该研究采用了受伽达默尔启发的诠释学方法。其理论前理解是关怀科学视角，据此，人是身体、心理和精神的统一体。资料来源是从威廉·詹姆斯1956年的著作《宗教经验之种种》中选取的32个故事。对它们进行诠释学解读，并根据关于患者灵性的国际研究进行讨论，以获得更深入的理解。结果有三个主要主题：（i）灵性的积极意义，（ii）灵性的消极意义，以及（iii）灵性的消极和积极意义。因此，心理护理人员关注患者的精神层面以充分帮助他们是一项非常重要的任务。
