Structural model of relationships between spiritual intelligence and academic hardiness and achievement motivation in a sample of university students.

The current research aims to reveal the structural model of causal relationships. between spiritual intelligence, academic hardiness, and achievement motivation in a sample of university students, and to verify the existence of differences in The research was done variables according to the demographic variables: gender (male/female), and level of academic achievement (high/low), as well as to verify the structural model that explains the direct and indirect effects between the variables. The research was done was conducted on a sample of (369) male and female students at the Higher Institute of Social Work in Alexandria. The self-report list of spiritual intelligence, the academic hardiness scale, and the achievement motivation scale were applied to them.The results showed: There is a statistically significant positive correlation between all dimensions of spiritual intelligence and their total sum, the dimensions of academic hardiness and their total sum, and the dimensions of achievement motivation and their total sum. The results also showed statistically significant differences in spiritual intelligence according to gender (male/female) in favor of females, and statistically significant differences in The research was done variables according to the level of academic achievement (high/low) in favor of those with high achievement. Finally, the results revealed a significant mediating effect of academic hardiness on the relationship between spiritual intelligence and achievement motivation, with the indirect effect (through academic hardiness) being statistically significant. In light of this, the researcher presented a set of recommendations and proposed research.
