Abstract: (302 Views)
Background: Prehospital emergency personnel are influenced by factors like spiritual intelligence, which can enhance the quality of health services and productivity. This study examined the relationship between spiritual intelligence and the job performance of emergency personnel in Ardabil Province, Iran.
Materials and Methods: Using census sampling, a descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from July to November 2023 with 389 prehospital emergency personnel from Ardabil Province. Data were collected through demographic forms, the spiritual intelligence self-report inventory (SISRI-24), and job performance questionnaires. Then, the data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics using SPSS 22.
Results: The mean score of total spiritual intelligence was 49.12±12.28, which was moderate. The mean score of job performance was 23.15±11.87, which was moderate. The results showed a significant relationship between age (P=0.03) and work experience (P=0.001) with spiritual intelligence and between age (P=0.001), work experience (P=0.001), and type of work shift with job performance. The results showed a correlation between spiritual intelligence and the job performance of prehospital emergency personnel.
Conclusion: Enhancing spiritual intelligence can improve performance, care quality, and well-being in high-stress environments.
Prehospital managers need to recognize the importance of spiritual intelligence in prehospital emergency personnel to improve their job performance, which can directly impact the quality of prehospital care.
