This descriptive, cross-sectional, and analytical study was carried out to identify the factors affecting the tendency of cancer patients for the religion and spirituality. The research was applied on a total of 800 individuals: 400 cancer patients under chemotherapy and 400 non-cancer individuals. Data were collected by personal information form, Ok-Religious Attitude Scale, and spiritual life questions. LISREL 8.7 program was run for the confirmatory factor analysis in order to evaluate the compliance of spiritual life questions. Data from Ok-Religious Attitude Scale and scores collected from spiritual life questions for both cancer and non-cancer individuals were statistically analyzed by two-way ANOVA. Cancer patients (82.8%) prayed more than non-cancer individuals (72.5%). Non-cancer individuals, on the other hand, visited the tombs (13.8%), sacrificed (22.2%), consulted the religious officials (9.2%), and more. The patients had more positive religious attitude than non-cancer individuals (Z = 4.193; p = 0.0001). Religious women were more positive than religious men. Lower education level caused more positive religious attitude. Medical properties of patients did not affect the religious attitude. Forgiveness, spiritual values, and beliefs were stronger in cancer patients than in non-cancer individuals (p = 0.0001). Knowing the factors affecting spiritual life and religious attitudes of patients and determining the spiritual needs of patients with a holistic perspective facilitate compliance of patients with cancer and its treatment. Therefore, containing the spiritual routine in the nursing care is essential.
本描述性、横断面分析研究旨在确定影响癌症患者宗教与精神倾向的因素。该研究共纳入800名个体：400名接受化疗的癌症患者和400名非癌症个体。通过个人信息表、Ok宗教态度量表和精神生活问题收集数据。运行LISREL 8.7程序进行验证性因素分析，以评估精神生活问题的符合性。对癌症和非癌症个体的Ok宗教态度量表数据及从精神生活问题收集的分数进行双向方差分析。癌症患者（82.8%）比非癌症个体（72.5%）祈祷更频繁。另一方面，非癌症个体中，扫墓的比例为13.8%，献祭的比例为22.2%，咨询宗教官员的比例为9.2%等。患者比非癌症个体有更积极的宗教态度（Z = 4.193；p = 0.0001）。宗教女性比宗教男性更积极。较低的教育水平导致更积极的宗教态度。患者的医疗属性不影响宗教态度。癌症患者的宽恕、精神价值观和信仰比非癌症个体更强（p = 0.0001）。了解影响患者精神生活和宗教态度的因素，并从整体角度确定患者的精神需求，有助于癌症患者及其治疗的依从性。因此，在护理中纳入精神常规至关重要。
