Spirituality is an important aspect in the process of building an individual's soul and life. All the success and excellence of human life stems from the spiritual aspect. Therefore, each individual needs to emphasize on the spiritual aspect of himself in order to live on the right teachings. The study was conducted to evaluate the psychometric aspects of the spirituality assessment scale. The questionnaire containing 20 of these items was used to assess the spiritual aspects of the individual. The study involved 106 respondents who answered the questionnaire voluntarily. The resulting exploratory factor analysis (EFA) showed that the resulting Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) value was .853, which is greater than the .05 Berlett's Test of Sphericity, indicating a significant value (p=.000) and indicating that the correlation between the items is sufficient to perform a factor analysis. The reliability value for this questionnaire is .826. This states that this questionnaire is suitable for use for actual research purpose.
