Abstract
This study examines the interplay among spiritual quotient, adversity quotient, and coping skills within key personnel of small Christian private schools in the Philippines. Through purposive sampling, seventeen (17) Christian private schools participated with a total of seventy (70) school key personnel. The data-gathering instrument used in this study was a 4-part online questionnaire converted comprehensively into parts through a website-based application called Google Forms, the participants answered the questionnaire online. To examine the strength and direction of the relationship between two or more continuous variables, Pearson Correlation Coefficient if the data were normally distributed; and Spearman’s Rank Correlation if the data were not normally distributed were used. There was a positive correlation between the spiritual quotient and adversity quotient of the key personnel of Christian private schools, r(68) = .428, p < .001. There was also a positive correlation between the spiritual quotient and coping scores of the key personnel of Christian private schools, r(68) = .266, p = .026 and between adversity quotient and coping scores of key personnel of Christian private schools, r(68) = .392, p = .001. spiritual quotient, adversity quotient, and coping are interrelated among Christian private school’s key personnel in the Philippines.
