ABSTRACT
The present study investigated the relationship between spiritual intelligence, depression, and ambiguity-tolerance among Imam Khomeini International University (IKIU) students. Using random sampling, The undergraduate students (N = 300) filled out Beck’s Depression Inventory, King’s Spiritual Intelligence test, and McLain et al. Ambiguity-Tolerance questionnaire. Results indicated that depression and spiritual intelligence can predict ambiguity-tolerance among students. Findings showed that depression has a negative relationship with ambiguity tolerance, while the relationship between spiritual intelligence and ambiguity tolerance was positive, the spiritual intelligence and depression showed a negative relationship. Also, the mediating role of ambiguity-tolerance in the relationship of spiritual intelligence and depression was approved.
