摘要：A viable model and self-report measure of spiritual intelligence were previously proposed and supported by King and DeCicco (2009). Despite such advances, evidence is needed demonstrating significant associations with other intelligences. The current study sought to test this criterion in relation to emotional intelligence. Among a sample of 420 Canadian adults, results demonstrated significant associations between spiritual intelligence and two self-report measures of emotional intelligence. Due to the suggestion by some theorists that empathy be included in a model of spiritual intelligence, associations with empathy were also investigated. Results bode well for the inclusion of a spiritual ability set in the broader framework of human intelligence, and further clarify the ways in which these two “alternative” intelligences intersect and digress. Key limitations, including the self-report nature of the current measures, are discussed.
