    The main purpose of this research was to study the relationship of spirituality in workplace ( spiritual craving, spiritual and mystical experience, spiritual connection, sense of community ), internal motivation and work engagement (strength, devotion, attraction), with task performance. The type of study was descriptive and the method was correlation. Statistical population included all employees of a healthcare center in the city of Isfahan, from whom, 200 persons were selected via simple random sampling. The research instruments were Spirituality in Workplace (Kinjerski & Skrypnek, 2006), Internal Motivation (Amabile, Hill, Hennessey & Tighe, 1994), Work Engagement (Utrecht, 2002), and Task Performance (Patterson, 1963) questionnaires. Data were analyzed with the use of Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis showed that there are significant positive relationships between spirituality in workplace, internal motivation and work engagement with task performance (P≤0.01). Moreover, results of regression analysis showed that the spiritual and mystical experience and the spiritual connection from the components of spirituality at work, the strength from the dimensions of work engagement, and the internal motivation, were able to predict significantly (P≤0.01) task performance. Therefore, based on the results it may be concluded that task performance in organizations could be increased by increasing spirituality in workplace, internal motivation and work engagement.

The research population consisted of all 3rd grade students in 3199 students, of which 310 were selected by random cluster sampling. Data were gathered using Hartler's academic motivation, Maddox and Prince School bonding, and Jink and Morgan's Academic Admission Questionnaire. To measure the reliability of the data gathering tool, a partial least squares structural equation model has been used. The composite reliability of the student's motivation is ./88 And also Cronbach's alpha of ./90 Also, the composite reliability of the Academic Self-efficacy is ./92 And its Cronbach alpha ./87 Finally, the combined composite reliability of the School Bonding is ./89 And also Cronbach's Alpha Is ./85. The results of the study showed that there is a significant relationship between the School bonding with academic self-efficacy and academic motivation and between self-efficacy and academic motivation. Self-efficacy has a mediator role between the relationship between the relationship with the school and the academic motivation.

Cluster random sampling was used to select 307 students .Then social capital and internal motivation questionnaires were administrated. To measure the academic achievement, their academic grade average was used. Collected data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, stepwise regression analyses and t test. The results showed that there is positive and significant relationship between social capital and academic achievement (P<./.1). There is positive and significant relationship between internal motivation and academic achievement (P<./.1). The results of regression analysis showed that only internal motivation is able to predict academic achievement.
