The data collection tools consisted of a three-part questionnaire for demographic information, spiritual health and self-regulation in learning. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire were evaluated at the beginning of the study. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney and Spearman correlations after entering the data SPSS v.18 software.
