Abstract

Spiritual intelligence is an important element towards the formation of a noble personality within a person. As university students are the nation's potential human capital, they need to have spiritual intelligence to achieve a high level of integrity. This pilot study was conducted to identify the reliability of instruments to measure the level of spiritual intelligence and understanding of integrity among Muslim IPTA students in Malaysia. This study is based on a quantitative study using digital questionnaires and the method used is random stratified sampling with a sample size of 30 Muslim students. The use of a digital questionnaire allows data to be collected and analyzed quickly. Research on previous studies was conducted to build these two variable instruments. The Cronbach alpha coefficient value of the spiritual intelligence instrument is 0.848 while the Cronbach alpha coefficient value of the integrity instrument is 0.756. Thus, the variable reliability of this instrument is acceptable. The study data were analyzed using IBM 'Statistical Package of Social Science' (SPSS) version 26 to assess the frequency, percentage, average, and correlation test. Analysis of data on spiritual intelligence was conducted using a descriptive test of frequency where a mean between 4.53 and 5.83 was obtained. These results show that the level of spiritual intelligence is high among students. Meanwhile, the integrity test was conducted using frequency test showed the majority of students understand the meaning of integrity. The results of the correlation test r = 0.138 showed a positive but weak relationship between the two variables of spiritual intelligence and integrity and P = 0.467 showed this relationship was not significant. The methodology of this study has provided empirical evidence on the current level of spiritual intelligence and understanding of integrity among the Muslim IPTA students in Malaysia.
