This article aims to explore the concept of spiritual transformation and address the question, 'How does spirituality bring about changes in cognition and behavior?' It draws on the findings of a larger qualitative study that explored the essence of spirituality and spiritual engagement from the perspective of palliative care clients and caregivers. Four clients and ten caregivers from across regional South Australia participated in the larger study utilizing van Manen's phenomenology. Secondary analysis of the qualitative data was undertaken to highlight the statements and phrases that portrayed the marked changes in thinking and behavior catalyzed by spirituality. The findings relate to the participants' spiritual beliefs and practices that helped them journey through the process of death and dying. Spirituality is a plausible explanation of the transformation that occurred, manifested by new thinking and behavior.
本文旨在探讨精神转变的概念，并回答“灵性如何带来认知和行为的改变？”这一问题。它借鉴了一项更大的定性研究的结果，该研究从姑息治疗患者和护理人员的角度探讨了灵性的本质和精神参与。南澳大利亚四个地区的四名患者和十名护理人员参与了利用范梅南现象学进行的更大规模研究。对定性数据进行二次分析，以突出那些描述灵性引发的思维和行为显著变化的陈述和短语。研究结果与参与者的精神信仰和实践有关，这些信仰和实践帮助他们度过了死亡和临终的过程。灵性是发生的转变的一个合理解释，表现为新的思维和行为。
