Relationship between Spiritual Intelligence and Life Satisfaction in Police Personnel in Uttar Pradesh

Spiritual health may not be something that you think much of, yet its impact on your life is unavoidable.The basis of spirituality is discovering a sense of meaningfulness in your life and coming to know that you have a purpose to fulfil thus leading to job satisfaction and in turn life satisfaction. The present study is an attempt to examine the relationship between Spiritual Health and Life Satisfaction in Police Personnel in Uttar Pradesh. Keeping in mind their stressful lifestyle, work pressure, erratic work hours and lack of sleep, it was felt necessary to study the relationship between spiritual health and life satisfaction. Police personnel were selected randomly and a sample of 300 was taken for the present study from across Uttar Pradesh. The Spiritual Health Scale developed by the Institute of Transformation (2000) and the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) developed by Diener et al. (1985) was administered on the subjects. Results revealed a high positive relationship between the two. The higher the spiritual intelligence of a person, the higher was their satisfaction with life.
