Spirituality concept is as a part of nursing standard. A person's spiritual needs has to be considered as integral part from nursing care. SQEFT therapy is a combination intervention that combines between spiritual qur'anic therapy and EFT as a spiritual intervention that is simple and practical to be done. This research aimed at knowing the change of BPRS value after being given SQEFT therapy. Method, sample of this research was consisted of 10 patients with schizophrenia who had SQEFT therapy, and 10 patients as a control group. Both of the groups were measured by BPRS three times: pre (before therapy), post 1 (after therapy in 1–2 weeks), and post 2 (after therapy in 3–4 weeks). Research result, by utilizing paired sample T test in SQEFT therapy group, the BPRS value in pre and post 1 (P = 0.000), BPRS value in post 1 and post 2 (P= 0.000), and BPRS value in pre and post 2 (P = 0.000) were all significant. However, BPRS value lowered after SQEFT therapy. In control group, BPRS value was ocuurred a decrease in pre and post 1 (P value ≤ 0.004), and value of pre and post 2 (P= 0.001), meanwhile, the BPRS value in post 1 and post 2 (P =0.193) did not lower anymore. Conclusion, there was a significant change of BPRS value after being given SQEFT therapy and the decrease of it showed the improvement of clinical symptoms on patient with schizophrenia.
