ABSTRACT

The aim of the current study is to explore the relationship between General Belief in Just World, Conscientiousness and Subjective Well-Being. The study employed a survey method wherein standardized questionnaires were administered to participants from different cities of India. Findings indicate that there is a significant positive relationship between General Belief in Just World and Subjective Well-Being (r = 0.169, p < 0.001) and between Conscientiousness and Subjective Well-Being (r = 0.255, p < 0.0001). The study also explores the association between Subjective Well-Being and other demographic factors such as Marital Status, Age, Gender and Affiliation to Religion. The current study provides evidence that there exists a significant relationship between religiosity and Subjective Well-Being and marital status and Subjective Well-Being.
