“…In this sense, several authors pointed out that religiosity/spirituality acts as a protective factor against the development of mental disorders, such as depression, anxiety, psychoactive substance use and risky behavior, (Abdala et al, 2010;Moreira-Alemida & Lucchetti, 2016;Koenig, 2012) contributing to the improvement of the individual's quality of life, sense of well-being, and social support. (Melo et al, 2015) Thus, several factors associated with religiosity can contribute to the increase of resilience and reduce mental impairment, such as the adoption of healthy lifestyles, access to social support, and the system of beliefs that support the reduction of psychological suffering (Pargament, 1997;Alvarez et al, 2016;Strelhow & Sarriera, 2018).…”

Quality of life is an eminently human condition that informs the perception of how the individual is in his life values, while spirituality and religiosity represent the connection with the sacred, the transcendental practices in the search for existential causes. Bringing these concepts to the academic environment can help in promoting health and better training for future medical professionals. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the relationship between quality of life and spirituality of medical students at a private university in the state of Paraná, Brazil. One hundred eighty-nine medical students answered three questionnaires (socio-demographic, WHOQOL-bref on quality of life, and DUREL spirituality) during the first and last year of graduation. In this study, we found that the general quality of life of medical students, according to the WHOQOL-bref scale, is regular (3.78), and there was no statistically significant difference in the general quality of life between the first and the last year of medical school. (p = 0.156). The social and environmental domains leveraged the scores more than the physical and psychological domains in both groups. On the Durel scale, intrinsic religiosity (IR) stood out more than organized (OR) and non-organized (NOR) religiosity, with statistically significant differences (p = 0.018), which may imply that these students prefer to seek more in themselves, a harmony of life between their beliefs and their particular needs, internalizing existential and spiritual reflexes that are reflected in their behaviors and decisions.

“…Currently, an effort by researchers has been observed to provide measures that evaluate spirituality and its correlates, seeking to fill the lack of instruments in this area to allow for the advancement of new studies, especially in Brazil (Lucchetti, Lucchetti & Vallada, 2013;Strelhow & Sarriera, 2018;Zimpel, Panzini, Bandeira, Fleck & Rocha, 2019). It should be noted, however, that the vast majority of instruments available in Portuguese have been adapted or developed for use in adults.…”

“…However, it is understood that these measures are limited to assess the complexity of the phenomenon, which goes beyond being affiliated with a religion and practicing or not practicing that religion (Fleck et al, 2003). Few Brazilian studies with adolescents have used scales in research studies in this area (Jahn & Dell'Aglio, 2017;Strelhow & Sarriera, 2018).…”

A number of studies point to the relationship between spirituality and religiosity with health and well-being. However, there are few instruments to evaluate these aspects among adolescents. The objective of this study was to verify the psychometric properties of the Spirituality, Religiousness and Personal Beliefs module, part of the World Health Organization’s Quality of Life Instrument (WHOQOL-SRPB) by analyzing evidence of validity and reliability among Brazilian adolescents. The participants were 1,248 Brazilian adolescents, between 12 and 18 years of age (M = 15.09, SD = 1.77), 57.3% of whom were girls. Confirmatory factor analyses indicated that the eight-factor composition presents good fit indexes, and adequate reliability. Multi-group analyses indicated that there is factorial invariance by gender and age. It is concluded that the instrument presents evidence of validity and reliability with Brazilian adolescents. However, further studies are recommended especially considering the principal components analyses.
