The collected data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’ correlation coefficients, and simple linear regression with the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program.
Results: The level of spirituality and self-esteem of the women averaged 3.1. For differences in spirituality and self-esteem by general characteristics, there were significant differences according to religion, employment, and economic status. There was a significantly positive correlation among spirituality and self-esteem. Simple linear regression analysis showed that spirituality accounted for 49% of the variance in self-esteem.
Conclusion: The interest in spirituality is an important in psychological nursing to meet patient demands, especially patients who are experiencing existential problems. It is necessary to provide psycho-spiritual programs for the middle-aged women to improve self-esteem.
