| Abstract: | This study discusses the spiritual well-being of 8–11 year-old children and its determinants. The aim of the study was to examine differences in terms of gender and age in selected variables and verify the relationship between spiritual well-being and selected variables: the religiosity of children, parental support; peer support, as well as explaining to extent to which the stated variables predict individual domains of spiritual well-being. In order to measure the selected variables, a test battery consisting of theFGLL, PSSS and FSSS questionnaires were used in addition to the author's Family Religious Activities Scale and the Religious Activities with Friends Scale... The sample consisted of 444 respondents (49% boys). The age of the respondents ranged from 8 to 11 (M = 9.69). The results were analysed by several statistical procedures. The results of the study confirm the importance of the support of parents and peers in the development of spiritual well-being in children aged 8to11. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
