Abstract

ABSTRACT This research is a qualitative study of the spiritual needs and practice of chronically ill children and their families in the Isan region of Thailand. The purposive sampling was 17 chronically ill children aged 10–18 years old and primary caregivers. Three instruments were used: a questionnaire, in-depth interview with questions adapted from the Spiritual Assessment Scale (SAS) by O’Brien, and non-participant observation. Field note-taking and voice recordings were used for data recording. Triangulation was used before analysis to test for credibility. Content analysis and thematic analysis techniques were used for data analysis. The five specific themes were stated by both children and caregivers. In addition, the spiritual needs and practice identified in this study were strongly related to Buddhism. All children and caregivers respected and believed in Buddha, and so Buddhism and Thai Isan traditions were crucial to their spiritual needs and were reflected in their religious practice.

泰国依山地区慢性病儿童及其家庭的精神需求和实践

本研究是对泰国依山地区慢性病儿童及其家庭的精神需求和实践的定性研究。目的抽样为17名年龄在10-18岁的慢性病儿童和主要照顾者。使用了三种工具:问卷调查，深度访谈，问题改编自O 'Brien的精神评估量表(SAS)，非参与式观察。数据记录采用现场笔记和录音。在分析之前使用三角测量来测试可信性。数据分析采用内容分析和主题分析技术。儿童和照料者都陈述了这五个具体主题。此外，本研究确定的精神需求和实践与佛教密切相关。所有的孩子和照顾者都尊重并信仰佛陀，因此佛教和泰国伊桑传统对他们的精神需求至关重要，并反映在他们的宗教实践中。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
