Description
Spirituality is becoming a growing concern and interest among the general public as well as among researchers (Roehlkepartain, King, Wagener & Benson, 2006). Interest in spirituality, which is a concept highly associated with religion, is evident in the increase of books, magazines, movies, TV shows and seminars that feature such a topic. In the internet, spirituality is also a well-searched topic and most researches in spirituality involve children and adolescents primarily because spirituality is one of the major factors that mold a developing person. Spirituality can be a source of identity and social relationships among young people (Compton, 2005). During their adolescent years, the period of growth and confusion, they seek not only relationships with other people but also with the self and a higher being by participating in spiritual or religious activities.
