How many stages are there in Poll and Smith's Spirituality Identity Development model?

  1. Three

  2. Four

  3. Five

  4. Six

The correct answer is: Four

Poll and Smith's Spirituality Identity Development model consists of four distinct stages. Each stage represents a different aspect of how individuals process and develop their spirituality over time. In this model, the stages reflect a progression that includes awareness of spiritual identity, exploration of beliefs and values, integration of spirituality into one's life, and ultimately, a commitment to a personal spiritual path. Understanding these stages is crucial for counselors, as they can help clients navigate their own spiritual journeys by recognizing which stage they may currently be in and what that means for their personal development. This framework can also assist in identifying potential areas for growth and exploration, fostering a deeper connection to self and others in a therapeutic context.
