Abstract

This study examines the connections between young adults' personality qualities, religion, and aspects of psychological well-being. The study used a variety of questionnaires to examine personality traits, religiosity, and psychological well-being in 126 persons between the ages of 22 and 28. The findings show that extraversion is positively correlated with these characteristics of wellbeing, while neuroticism is adversely correlated with environmental mastery, pleasant connections with others, and self-acceptance. Positive relationships with people, environmental mastery, and self-acceptance are all directly tied to personal development, autonomy, life purpose, and self-acceptance. However, none of the personality traits or aspects of psychological well-being in this population seem to be significantly correlated with religiosity According to the findings, some personality qualities may be bad for well-being while others may be good for it. Interventions meant to improve one element of well-being may also have a favorable effect on other dimensions. However, the correlational design of the study and use of a single sample necessitate further investigation to confirm and build upon these findings as well as investigate the causal relationships between these variables.
