| Abstract | Background: Thalassemia is one of the most prevalent genetic disorders with numerous physical and psychological side effects. Spiritual wellbeing and spiritual coping are important resources for dealing with the complications of chronic diseases. Objectives: The present study aimed at investigating the relationship between spiritual coping and spiritual wellbeing in patients with beta-thalassemia major in Zahedan in 2016. Methods: This descriptive-correlational study was conducted on 150 β-thalassemia major patients who referred to the Special Diseases Clinic of Ali Asghar Hospital of Zahedan in 2016. A convenience sampling was employed, and data collection tools included a clinical and demographic questionnaire and the Spiritual Coping and Wellbeing Questionnaire. The data were then analyzed by SPSS21 using statistical tests including Pearson’s correlation coefficient, independent t test, and one-way variance analysis. Results: There was a positive significant relationship between the mean score of spiritual wellbeing (81.05 ± 30.79) and the mean score of spiritual coping (40.47 ± 11.81) in β-thalassemia major patients (P = 0.001). Conclusions: The improvement of spiritual coping entails boosting spiritual wellbeing. Given the positive impact of spiritual wellbeing on coping with symptoms in patients with chronic diseases, it is possible to promote the quality of life of these patients by enhancing their spiritual coping. | en |
