Using Jungian model of human development, the question of emotional maturity
in relation to psycho-spiritual well-being was explored in the sample of 500 adult
population of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The sample was composed of 262 men
(52.4%) and 238 women (47.6%), whose age ranged from 17 to 47 with the
mean age of 26.05 ± 6.381. Two main measures were utilized in this study, the
Pearson-Marr Archetypal Indicator (to measure the degree of maturity in self) and
Spiritual Well-being Scale (to measure existential and religious well-being). The
results were discussed in terms of hypotheses involving the meditating role of the
archetypes in psychological maturity and psycho-spiritual well-being. The evidence
implicating psychological maturity in determining religiosity, spirituality and wellbeing was compelling. Most of the secondary predictions were confirmed. As
predicted, psychologically mature respondents obtained higher scores on all
measures of spiritual well-being. Spiritual poverty apparently resulted when a
respondent’s major identification was with the lower levels of personal growth.
Moreover, neurotic tendencies significantly reduced with psychological maturity
and religious participation. These results confirm the importance of psychological
maturity for psycho-spiritual health.
