Women Spiritual Help-Seeking Behavior

Women Spiritual Help-Seeking Behavior Available literature showed that large proportions of attendees of spiritual houses are women,yet, little is known about their help-seeking characteristics in terms of the problems they seek help for. The need to understand this phenomenon has been emphasized in the literature yet little empirical attention has been paid to it. Not much has been done on the psychological and social factors that predict women spiritual help-seeking behavior and the nature of problems they seek help for. Therefore, this present work focused on the psycho-social factors that predict women spiritual help-seeking behavior and also identified the problems that women seek spiritual help for. The research findings revealed that women seek spiritual help for problems relating to family, health, career, financial, and persecutory feelings respectively.
