Role of Spiritual Intelligence in Delinquent Behavior among Juvenile Delinquents: A Review Study

Abstract

Background: A recurring social disturbance in young people or adolescents is known as juvenile delinquency. Juvenile delinquency represents a continual social challenge to the whole of society. This constitutes a way in which environmental factors and human behavior are interconnected. Because it predicts behavior and adaptability and objectives that help individuals overcome difficulties and achieve their objectives, spirituality could be considered as a form of intellect. When spirituality was seen to be a type of intelligence, the psychologist’s facts were widened, allowing for its connection to logical cognitive processes like goal-setting and problem-solving. Objective: To review the role of spiritual intelligence in delinquent behaviour among juvenile delinquents. Method: The method used here is the systematic searching of papers and articles on ResearchGate, Google Scholar, PsychINFO, Pubmed with related keywords in the tiles, abstract and indexing fields. Result:  The quality of life was significantly impacted by spiritual intelligence, and this is a delicate time that calls for special preparation to create a better future, tackle challenges and reduce issues of delinquency. Conclusion: In this review paper, we have discussed the worse impact of Juvenile delinquents and their corrective measures as spiritual intelligence.  Developing spiritual intelligence for juvenile delinquency may help to lessen such offence, although further study is required to confirm this.
