Spiritual health and age (P=./0001), academic years (P=./005) gender (P=./0001), place of residence (P=./008) and father's education(P=./012) were among the significant relationships. The mean self-regulation score for learning was 94.91 ± 13.61. There was also a positive and significant correlation between spiritual health and self-regulation in learning (r=./22 , p=./001)
Conclusion: Considering the role of spiritual health in positivism, creating relaxation and helping to improve individual performance, it seems that spiritual health needs to be introduced in educational and cultural planning, especially in the field of practice.
