摘要
Although spirituality seems to be an important protective factor in the treatment of addiction, a serious limitation within the current literature involves a lack of research examining the psychometric properties of scales that measure spirituality among individuals struggling with substance use disorders (SUDs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWB) among a sample of 305 individuals recruited from a residential substance abuse treatment center. Exploratory factor analyses supported the scale’s original structure. Validity and reliability tests suggested the SWB could be useful in assessing spiritual well-being among individuals with SUDs.
