Examining a Measure of Spiritual Capital: Perceptions of Business and Education Majors
Lucey, Thomas A.
Citizenship, Social and Economics Education, v18 n1 p3-15 Apr 2019
The purpose of this article is to examine an instrument designed to measure an individual's spiritual capital. Spiritual capital represents a relatively new concept that relates to one's relationship to financial resources such that he or she exhibits dispositions and behaviors toward justice-oriented environments. This study served to interpret the factor structure of Rima's measure, consider differences in spiritual capital levels based on student area of study, and explore the influences on measures of students' spiritual capital. The importance of this study relates to its interpretation of a measure for spiritual capital and its providing of information about an effort to quantify a concept largely considered abstract and intangible.
