Abstract

The current study analyzes the relationship among Religiosity, Locus of Control, Resilience and Psychological well-being among Muslim underrate Students. The role of Resilience as a moderator is also explored. The roles of Extrinsic and Intrinsic Religiosity on PWB, Internal and External LOC on PWB were also analyzed. A total of 220 individuals were selected through purposive sampling technique. 111 (n=111) respondents were taken Males Students and 109 (n=109) respondents were taken Females students from public and private Universities of District Mardan, Peshawar, Islamabad, Lahore. Demographic information sheet, The Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWBS) 42 items including six factors by Caron Ryff (1989), Muslim Religiosity Scale 26 items including two factors Intrinsic and Extrinsic Religiosity by Dr. Mussarat Jabeen Khan (2014), Multidimensional Locus of Control Scale 24 items including three factors Internal Locus of control, Powerful others and Chance, by Levenson (2003), and The brief resilience scale six items by Smith in (2008). The result were assessed by using the Pearson product correlation, multiple regression analysis, Moderation analysis and Independent sample T-test. Result of the current study indicates that the entire variables have significant relationship; Intrinsic Religiosity and Internal LOC have positive relationship with PWB. Extrinsic Religiosity and External LOC have Negative relationship with PWB. Intrinsic Religiosity, Internal LOC, External LOC, Resilience would predict PWB, except Extrinsic Religiosity. Resilience plays the role of Moderator between Religiosity and PWB, and would not play the role of Moderator between LOC and PWB. There are no significant Gender differences in PWB among Muslim undergraduate Students.
