Popis: This study aimed to identify the relationship between anxiety, stress, purpose in life and spirituality during the COVID-19 pandemic. This cross-section study involved 384 respondents above 18 years old, who lived in the Gunung Kidul area, and could speak Bahasa Indonesia. They were selected using the purposive sampling method. The assessment included the Anxiety and Stress Scale, The Purpose of Life, and the Daily Spiritual Experiences Scale questionnaire. Anxiety was significantly negatively correlated with spirituality, while stress was significantly negatively correlated with spirituality and meaning in life was significantly positively correlated with spirituality. Respondents who had lower anxiety and stress levels during the pandemic tended to have a high spiritual level, or, during the pandemic, their spiritual activities were higher. Likewise, on the meaning in life, respondents who had a high level of purpose in life also tended to have a high spirituality level. Keywords: Anxiety, Stress, Meaning in Life, Spirituality, COVID–19
