为了响应定性研究以补充定量研究结果的呼吁,加深我们对精神应对的理解,并建立理论(Hood & Belzen,2005;米勒和凯利,2005; Pargament,Ano,& Wachholtz,2005),这项试点研究使用叙事方法来检查12名自认为利用灵性进行治疗的参与者的经历。与会者描述了一个7步过程,其特点是:(a)开放,(B)转向精神视角,(c)进入内部,(d)与神圣联系,(e)消除模式,(f)设定治疗意图,(g)遵循内心的指导,将精神和身体疾病的经历转化为治疗的经历。与会者强调了灵性在面对危机时重建积极意义的作用,以及解构与疾病相关的思想,感觉,行为和经验模式。
To respond to calls for qualitative research to compliment quantitative findings, deepen our understanding of spiritual coping, and build theory (Hood & Belzen, 2005; Miller & Kelley, 2005; Pargament, Ano, & Wachholtz, 2005), this pilot study used a narrative method to examine the experience of 12 participants who self-identified as drawing on spirituality for healing. Participants described a 7-step process characterized by (a) openness, (b) shifting to a spiritual perspective, (c) going within, (d) connecting with the sacred, (e) undoing patterns, (f) setting healing intentions, and (g) following their inner guidance to transform experiences of mental and physical illness into experiences of healing. Participants emphasized the role of spirituality in reconstructing positive meanings in the face of crisis, and deconstructing patterns of thought, feeling, behavior, and experience associated with illness.
