Abstract

Abstract: The following thesis explores the impact of spiritual intelligence on comprehensive formation for Catholic education. The objective was to determine how the development of spiritual intelligence, or the lack of it, has influenced the people of the parish El Señor de la Ascensión . The methodology used was mixed, the design was correlational, and the modality a virtual field type; surveys and semi-structured interviews were done with 34 participants. The virtual tools allowed the study to overcome logistical challenges and create an enriching experience and research. The results revealed that there is a limited understanding of spiritual intelligence and that it is commonly confused with religious practice. It was concluded that spiritual intelligence, understood as the ability to seek a transcendental meaning of life, is essential for a comprehensive Catholic education. It is suggested that education, both formal and informal, should promote dialogue and reflection and encourage critical thinking and self-knowledge as part of the comprehensive formation of young people to achieve authentic spiritual development. The implementation of programs that train parents in spiritual intelligence is recommended.
