Spirituality, Theology, and Health Seminar
- Date
- Thursday, Sept. 6, 2007
- Time
- 12:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m.
- Organization
- Duke Center for Spirituality, Theology and Health
- Description
Drawing on theory, research, and practice, this seminar will present a new model for understanding and evaluating spirituality in the context of health care.
Spirituality will be described as a natural, dynamic, and irreducible part of life, one that can facilitate growth or decline in health and well-being. The concept of spiritual integration will be introduced as a way to evaluate the efficacy of multifaceted spiritual beliefs and practices.
Led by Ken Pargament, PhD, professor of clinical psychology at Bowling Green State University, the seminar will consider the implications of this model of spirituality for clinical research and practice.
The seminar is hosted by the new Center for Spirituality, Theology, and Health in the Duke University Center for Aging and Human Development.
