Abstract

Objective: The World Health Organization's definition of health now stands open to severe criticism due to changes in today's world and the accompanying mental void; in addition to physical, psychological, and social aspects, spiritual health and its interaction with the other aspects has been studied in scientific literature and recent research. The present study was conducted to investigate the mediating role of emotional regulation in the relationship between spiritual health with quality of life, psychological health, and burnout. Method: In this study, 231 staff from Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences completed Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS), Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF), General Health Questionnaire-28 (GHQ-28), and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). The gathered data were analyzed using Pearson correlation, Hierarchical Regression analysis, and Sobel's test. Results: All variables were correlated with one another (p<0.001). The hierarchical regression analysis and Sobel's test indicated that the emotional regulation have a relative mediating role in the relationship between spiritual health and quality of life (ss=0.53, Z=4.05, p<0.001) and a complete mediating role in the relationship between spiritual health with mental health (ss=0.68, Z=5.62, p<0.001) and burnout (ss=0.70, Z=6.12, p<0.001). Conclusion: There is a complex and non-linear relationship between spiritual health and the areas of quality of life, mental health and burnout. This relationship is potentially influenced by emotional regulation.
