ARIAS, Rodrigo  and  LEMOS, Viviana. A theoretical and operational approach to construct spiritual intelligence. Enfoques [online]. 2015, vol.27, n.1, pp.79-102. ISSN 1669-2721.

The theory of multiple intelligences has broadened the traditional concept of intelligence opening the possibility of considering the emotional and spiritual aspects of it. The concept of spiritual intelligence has recently been proposed by some authors, but in an eclectic and imprecise manner. This work aims to integrate and clarify the concept, laying the theoretical foundations for the development of a series of preliminary reactive directed to the evaluation of spiritual intelligence.
