Ruminative thinking, which is characterized as continuously thinking about the feelings and possible causes and consequences of the problem(s) without taking any action to solve the problem(s) faced by the individual, is a mental state that prevents the mind from working in a healthy way and thus affects the flow of daily life. Spiritual wellness, on the other hand, refers to the expansion of the individual's sense of meaning and purpose in life, including moral and ethical values. In this respect, spiritual wellness is considered to be the essence of a healthy life. In this study, the relationship between these two concepts, which are thought to be related to each other, is examined on a sample of 472 students studying at Erciyes University Faculty of Theology in 2022-2023. In the study, the Spiritual Wellness Inventory developed by Ingersoll (1995) and translated into Turkish by Duyan et al. (2021), the Ruminative Thought Style Scale developed by Brinker and Dozois (2009) and adapted into Turkish by Karatepe (2010), and a personal information form were used to determine demographic variables such as age, gender, and class of the participants.
