In the original article, the authors have translated the Spiritual Well-being Scale [Paloutzian, R. F., & Ellison, C. W. (1982). Loneliness, spiritual well-being and quality of life. In L. A. Peplau & D. Perlman (Eds.), Loneliness: A sourcebook of current theory, research and therapy (pp. 224–237). New York: Wiley] to Persian using a forward–backward translation technique. However, the Persian version of the scale was already available and should be used with the permission of the owner of the scale, Professor Dr. Raymond Paloutzian. We request all future researchers to use the Persian version of Spiritual Well-being Scale available at https://www.westmont.edu/psychology/raymond-paloutzian-spiritual-wellbeing-scale.
