Abstract
Spirituality has been found to have positive impact on the overall quality of human life. This study was conducted to know the impact of spirituality on the quality of life in cancer patients. For this purpose, a total of 134 cancer patients in the Institute of Nuclear Medicine Oncology and Radio therapy (INOR) Abbottabad were interviewed through interview schedule. Spirituality was taken as independent variables while life quality and its sub aspects including social, emotional, physical and functional wellbeing were selected as dependent variables. A univariate and bivariate analysis were carried out to calculate the responses. Results of the mean test show a higher level of spirituality (M=3.26) and quality of life (M=2.93) of the study participants. Correlation test shows that social aspect has positive correlations and emotional aspect has negative correlations with spirituality. Similarly, physical aspect has moderate significant and functional aspect has non-significant correlations with spirituality. It is concluded that patients with higher level of spirituality have better quality of life.
