Abstract

The Spiritual Experience Index was developed to measure spiritual maturity in persons of diverse religious and spiritual beliefs. The scale was constructed from a developmental rather than a multidimensional conceptualization of faith. Initial findings from a religiously heterogeneous college sample indicated good reliability for the SEI and supported its use as a unidimensional measure. Higher scores on the SEI were significantly related to lower dogmatism and intolerance of ambiguity. The SEI was also moderately related to higher religious participation and positively correlated with intrinsicness and quest. However, compared with the intrinsic and quest scales, the SEI emerged as the strongest indicator of adaptive spiritual functioning. Directions for future research are suggested.

摘要

精神体验指数旨在衡量具有不同宗教和精神信仰的人的精神成熟度。该量表是从信仰的发展而不是多维概念构建的。来自宗教多元化大学样本的初步发现表明，SEI 的可靠性良好，并支持将其用作一维测量。SEI 的得分越高，教条主义和对模棱两可的容忍度越低。SEI 还与更高的宗教参与度中度相关，并与内在性和探索性呈正相关。然而，与内在性和探索性量表相比，SEI 是适应性精神功能的最强指标。提出了未来研究的方向。
