Using Chronbach’s alpha, the reliability of the questionnaire is determined and the reliability scores were 0.86 and 0.90, respectively. To analyze the data, descriptive studies and inferential statistics (Kolmogorov-Smironov tests, Pearson correlation and regression) are used. The findings reveal that there is a significant direct relationship between spiritual intelligence and achievement motivations of the sportsmen. In addition, all elements of spiritual intelligence are found to have a significant positive relationship with the acheivement motivation of the sportsmen, and elements of present critical thinking(to %265),self-awareness production(to %134, and awareness(to %171) can predict the acheivement motivation in sportsmen.
