Abstract

This research analyzes the psychological basis of spiritual intelligence. Humans not only have intellectual and emotional intelligence, but also spiritual intelligence, so that humans become complete humans. Spiritual intelligence is the capacity and ability that can enable a person to solve daily life problems and try to achieve certain goals to be achieved. Spiritual intelligence includes the intelligence to place human behavior and life in a broader and richer context of meaning. The aim of this research is to explore the psychological foundations of spiritual intelligence, so as to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of spiritual intelligence itself. Spiritual intelligence, which includes, among other things, faith in God, compassion for others, and having a high level of awareness, will make human existence more useful for other people. In other words, spiritual intelligence can improve the quality of a person's life. By using a qualitative method based on literature study, we will systematically review the meaning of spiritual intelligence and the controversy that exists among experts regarding the existence of spiritual intelligence among the various intelligences possessed by humans. Then the various dimensions of spiritual intelligence are discussed and what factors can increase spiritual intelligence. Finally, it can be concluded that by knowing the psychological basis of spiritual intelligence, you will not only gain a deeper understanding of spiritual intelligence, but also know how to develop and apply spiritual intelligence in everyday life.
