Abstract

Humans with spiritual intelligence are able to inquire about the meaning of life and the interconnectedness of the mind, spirit, and outside world. This study involving 270 tribal Tagin youths between the ages of 20 and 22 was carried out to evaluate and compare the spiritual intelligence of youth from two distinct circles in the Upper Subansiri district of Arunachal Pradesh. The spiritual intelligence of the tribal youths was evaluated using the Dhar and Dhar (2010) Spiritual Intelligence Scale. The findings revealed a substantial difference between the two groups: Daporijo’s youth were significantly more optimistic than Taliha’s youth, but Taliha’s youth were more benevolent, modest, compassionate, and had greater overall spiritual intelligence. Academic achievement and spiritual intelligence were revealed to have a moderately positive correlation.
