Abstract: لشخصية الانسان جوانب (مادية) تتمثل في تركيبه العضوي، و(روحية) تتمثل بنشاطه الفكري، والعقلي، والعلاقة وثيقة بين هذين الجانبين اذ يؤثر احدهما في الاخر، ولابد من التوازن بينهما بحسب ما اكدته الدراسات المتخصصة، ولهذين الجانبين حاجات مادية، وروحية، والاخيرة | Every human being has physical aspects, like his organic structure, and spiritual ones, like thinking activities, and the relation between them is so extensive and each one affects the other. There should be a balance between physical and spiritual needs, as approved by experimental research, and the latter can include the individual's needs for peace and secured life. The Iraqi society has been suffering from black terrorism since 2003, and a group of people has suffered from terroristic attacks making them disabled victims affecting negatively their psychological health and state, and increasing feelings of restlessness, anxiety, hopelessness and negative passions accompany their life. It is because of this, the need for the present study arises. The study is based on the importance of psychological needs and their role in the psychological improvement of disabled people, as they have a positive impact on individual's psychological state like happiness and hope. The study aims at identifying spiritual needs and the role of hope for disabled victims of terroristic acts. It identifies the spiritual needs and hope in relation to the variables of gender, age and disability level. It also identifies the relationship between spiritual needs and hope, and the parameters of spiritual needs like content, peace, and sublimation, and their role in hope prediction. To achieve the research objectives, the researcher has adopted Bosnik's theory of spiritual needs (2010) and Lazaros's theory of hope (1999). The sample of the present study comprises of 269, aged between (18 - 80) years old, divided into males (165) and females (104), and disability average ranging between (60 - 100 %), during 2003 - 2016. The researcher has designed an instrument of spiritual needs and hope, and the data are analyzed through the use of t - test, Pearson correlation coefficient, ANOVA, and linear regression of the SPSS package. Validity and reliability are investigated and approved. Results reveal that : 1. An increase in fulfilling the spiritual needs of the research sample. It is calculated as (45.5) which is higher than the tabulated value amounted to (1.96). 2. The sample of this research is optimistic. The calculated t - test value is read as (16.4) which is higher than the tabulated value amounted to (1.96).3. There are significant statistical differences in favor of spiritual needs in relation to age. The calculated f - value is (4.63) which is higher than the tabulated value amounted to (3.84). Concerning the variable of gender and the disability average, there is no significant statistical difference. Also, no significant difference between hope and the variables of gender, age and average of disability is found. 4. There is a positive relationship between spiritual needs and hope for the study sample. The research has been concluded with a number of recommendations. It is necessary to activate the role of psychological counseling in rehabilitation centers for disabled people to satisfy their spiritual needs. Besides, ministries in charge are responsible for hiring psychological counselors to deal with disabled people to raise their spirits and support them psychologically. The researcher has suggested a similar study but on different samples from the Iraqi society like normal people or people with cancer. Also, a study on the relation between spiritual needs and psychological health, life satisfaction, psychological flexibility, positive thinking, optimism and happiness can be conducted.
