    Abstract:

    Self-control is an internal care based on which, without external supervision or control, assigned tasks are performed and abnormal and illegal behaviors are abandoned.

    When someone ignores control. A foreigner should devote his efforts to doing the work assigned to him and not commit a crime such as slacking and negligence, he benefits from internal control.

    On the other hand, spiritual intelligence represents a set of abilities, capacities and spiritual resources that using them in daily life can increase the adaptability of a person. is For this purpose, 357 students of Payam Noor Behshahr University have been randomly selected and the required data have been collected using a questionnaire.

    Using Pearson regression analysis, an attempt has been made to test the validity of the research hypotheses.

    The research findings indicate that some dimensions of spiritual intelligence have a significant relationship with students' self-control and some have no relationship.

    The research results show that there is a significant and moderate relationship between self-control and spiritual intelligence.

    There is a significant relationship between critical existential thinking, transcendental awareness and the expansion of self-awareness with students' self-control.

    Also, the component of personal meaning making has no relationship with self-control.

    Key words:

    Self-control , spiritual intelligence, intelligence, spirituality, intelligence criteria,

    Introduction

    The concept of spiritual intelligence in the academic literature of psychology was first proposed in 1996 by Stevens [1] and then in 1999 by Emmons.

    Parallel to this trend, Gardner [2] (1999), criticized the concept of spiritual intelligence in different dimensions and made a survey and challenged the acceptance of this combined concept of spirituality and intelligence.

    Spiritual intelligence is an interesting and new subject that has very little theoretical material as well as research and experimental findings.

    Recently, this subject has attracted the opinion of many experts and researchers. Spiritual intelligence is able to facilitate or increase awareness or the feeling of connection with a higher power or a sacred being (Sisk and Torrance[3], 2001).

    Spiritual intelligence combines the constructs of spirituality and intelligence into a new construct. While spirituality is related to the search and experience of sacred elements, meaning, heightened awareness, and exaltation, spiritual intelligence requires abilities that use such spiritual matters to adapt and act effectively and produce valuable products and outcomes (Emmons [4], 1999). On the meaning of spirituality.

    At the same time, new trends have emerged in the psychology of religion, and due to them, effective but inconsistent measures have been taken, through which spiritual beliefs, commitment and actions are considered to be related to success in everyday life (for example, physical and mental health, as well as success in married life). Emmons believes that in such a situation, the existence of a concept that has the potential to integrate the literature on these issues is very important. He believes that this is the concept of spiritual intelligence (Emmons, 2000).

    Self-control is an internal care based on which assigned tasks are performed and abnormal and illegal behaviors are abandoned without external supervision or control.

    When someone, without paying attention to external control, devotes his efforts to doing the work assigned to him and does not commit a crime such as lack of work and negligence, he benefits from internal control. it is In other words; Whenever the controlling factor is transferred from the outside to the inside of a person, so that a person evaluates and corrects his performance with authority and knowledge in the form of specific standards and towards desired goals, self-control has been realized.

    In this case, external supervision does not play a role in the realization of such behavior, which involves doing one's duty and abandoning wrongdoing, and it is only internal care that causes the aforementioned behavior (John Zagiri et al., 2017).

    In this chapter, the aim is to review the literature and background of the research on the relationship between spiritual intelligence and self-control among students of Payam Noor Behshahr University. In this book, scientific evidence is also discussed, such as the researches of neuropsychologist Persinger [5] and neuropsychologist Ramachandran in the 1990s at the University of California, which led to the identification of a point in the human brain that was named God's point [6]. This area is located in one of the nerve connections in the temporal lobe of the brain. During the scan with positron emission topography, these neural regions have been illuminated whenever spiritual and spiritual research issues have been discussed with people. Although the presence of this point in the brain does not prove the existence of God, it does indicate that the brain is programmed to answer final and ultimate questions (Parsa, 2009). And the connection is with infinity. Spiritual intelligence helps us to digest and understand the true and true principles that exist in our subconscious and it is a part of our consciousness that can act as a compass for us. For this purpose, the compass is a very good image, because it always points to the north points, which means upwards.

    They are born with the dream of the light that goes away from our hands, and they devote their whole lives to return to that aura of light or that energetic source of life and creation, and to immerse themselves in its purity and infinity and drown in their originality.

    The same light that we come from and In it, our body begins to form, and you begin to recognize and recognize our hands, feet, face, and other body parts, and with physical evolution to enter this mortal world, as soon as you leave the mother's womb, you open your physical eyes for the first time and see everything from flesh, blood, and tangible objects, and the mother and father who surround us, and slowly, with their patience, love, and support, they teach us physics to prepare the way to pass this test. we learn What you learn in this environment is that we all belong to God and are his creations and deities, but there are many and we are scattered on the earth and each one of us is unique and special as a reflection of our creator, and we get to know the current laws in nature, as well as the laws and custom of the human society, and that there are basic principles to sustain ourselves, such as the physical needs of breathing, eating, sleeping, excreting, and socializing. It will not be purified, and our nature will guide us towards our creator and that oneness and absolute light from whom everything is relativized and that eternal being and non-existence that is nothing, whether you know it or not and whether you are dreaming.

    Considering the evolution of mankind from its creation until now and the formation of civilizations and the progress made in science and technology, man has been able to find his place on earth and provide a place for his comfort and for this purpose regulations and He has established rules for himself so that physical and physical limits and boundaries are respected and everyone spends time together on earth happily and healthily, so that they can reach from plurality in unity to unity in multitude and experience perfection. And their culture and customs show that man's quest to find and reach the best path and life and in fact peace.

    There is no answer to this perplexity except paying attention to the soul, becoming aware of it and the needs of this dimension of existence and bringing it to the moment of life.

    In this regard, in 1997 two writers Zohar and Marshall introduced a new dimension of human intelligence called spiritual intelligence, which according to them is the ultimate intelligence. And it is used to solve conceptual and value problems that we will describe (Parsa, 2010)
