Objectives: This study investigates the structural model that elucidates the relationship between religiosity and mental health, via the mediating role of spiritual intelligence, among the students of Urmia University.
Method: The research method was correlation of the type of structural equation model. From a pool of students at Urmia University in 2023 (N=13,567), 200 students were selected using the available sampling method, and they completed Goldberg's Mental Health Questionnaire (1979), Safdel's Religiosity Questionnaire (2013), and Farhosh et al.'s Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire (2018). The path analysis modelling method was employed based on the LISREL software (Version 8.8) and SPSS 27 to analyse the results.
Results: The research results showed that the direct path of between religiosity and mental health (β=0.73, T=8.07) was positive and significant (P<0.001). Additionally, the direct path between spiritual intelligence and mental health (β=0.75, T=8.32) was positive and significant (P<0.001). Furthermore, the indirect path between religiosity and mental health through spiritual intelligence (0.51) was positive and significant (P<0.005).
Conclusion: The results suggest that the proposed model based on research data exhibits a good fit, and the spiritual intelligence mediates the relationship between religiosity and mental health.
