Abstract
Spirituality is the motivating force of an individual towards creating a broad concept of personal understanding. This study was carried out to examine the impact of the remembrance of God on the perceived stress of Ardabil Law Enforcement Force Command staff. This is a quasi-experimental research with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population consisted of all the families of Ardabil Law Enforcement Force staff who had participated in the ideology courses of this organization in 2019. A group of 30 people was selected using the convenience sampling method from this community and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups (N = 15). The data collection instrument was a perceived stress questionnaire. Spiritual therapy was performed for twelve 45-minute sessions, and the control group did not receive any intervention. The results were analyzed using univariate analysis of covariance (ANOVA). The results of analysis of covariance revealed that, after controlling the effects of pretest, there was a significant difference between the posttest scores of the two groups in the perceived stress variable (P < 0.001, F = 7.306). It can said that spiritual therapy method can be used as an effective method in controlling and managing the stress of Ardabil Law Enforcement Force staff.
