Subscribe/Renew Journal
The relation between spirituality and subjective well-being was measured in 176 (56= male, 120= female) college teachers trom four Catholic college teachers of Bangalore. Teachers rated their own spirituality using the Spiritual Competence Scale (Sing & Premrajan, 2007). Teachers' subjective well-being was measured using self-report based on the Satisfaction with Life Scale (Diener, 1985) and Positive Affect and Negative Affective Scale (Watson, Clark, & Tellegen, 1988). Scales scores were computed by using spss-20 version. Correlation and simple linear regression were carried out. Results revealed that there is a significant positive relationship between spirituality and subjective well-being and also subjective well-being can be explained by spirituality.
