The aim of this study is to validate a German instrument to measure the spiritual competence of people working in the health care system. To achieve that, the spiritual care competence questionnaire (SCCQ) was distributed to health care institutions in Germany and Austria. On a sample of n=717 factor analysis was conducted which produced a model with 7 factors. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha (0.73 to 0.86). Maximum-Likelihood estimation showed good model-fit (cfi=0.96, tli=0.95, rmsea=0.04, srmr=0.05) and the discriminant validity with the SCCQ and the SWE by Jerusalem and Schwarzer showed significant negative results.
