  This study aimed to assess the spiritual care needs and spiritual well-being levels of lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy (CT). This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 110 patients in the outpatient CT unit of a university hospital. Data were collected using a personal information form, the “Three-Factor Spiritual Well-Being Scale” and the “Spiritual Care Needs Scale.” The average age of participants was 62.6 ± 8.0 years. Patients with a university or above education level, civil servants, self-employed individuals, those receiving only CT, and those with less than 5 CT cycles had significantly higher spiritual well-being scores (p < 0.05). Spiritual care needs scale scores were significantly higher for married individuals and those receiving only CT (p < 0.05). In conclusion, both spiritual well-being levels and spiritual care needs were observed to be high among lung cancer patients.

  In this article, the 1st and 6th paragraphs in the “Discussion” section contain several errors. The corrected paragraphs are given below. This study aimed to assess the spiritual well-being levels and spiritual care needs of individuals diagnosed with lung cancer. The findings revealed that the patients exhibited high spiritual well-being levels, with the “harmony with nature” sub dimension scoring particularly high in relation to spiritual well-being. This aligns with several studies which reported high spiritual well-being of cancer patients (Martins et al., 2020; Rabow & Knish, 2015).” The study identified high spiritual needs among the patients, with the specific subdimension “informing them about their health” obtaining the highest scores. Notably, in the current study, it was observed that patients’ needs in terms of “informing them about their health” increased, deviating from the emphasis on love, support, and bonding seen in other studies (Kırca et al., 2023; Shi et al., 2023). This divergence is thought to be linked to differences in the disease stage. The original article has been corrected.
