dc.description.abstractPresent study was conducted to explore the association of psychological well-being with helplessness and hopelessness among youth. The respondents were undergraduate students studying in constituent colleges of Punjab Agricultural University, district Ludhiana, Punjab. Total sample comprised of 400 youth (Males=200, Females=200). Standardized scales were used for assessment of PWB (Sisodia and Choudhary, 1971), Helplessness (Mathur and Bhatnagar 2000) and Hopelessness (Beck 1974). The results indicated that both males and females had moderate level of PWB, helplessness and mild level of hopelessness. Further exploration highlighted that male youth had better PWB, less helplessness and less hopelessness in comparison to their counterparts. Regression analysis indicated negative association of perceived helplessness and hopelessness with PWB of the youth. It is recommended that longitudinal studies may be beneficial to study the change in levels of PWB, hopelessness and helplessness. Efforts in form of interventions may be planned to mitigate the effects of perceived helplessness and hopelessness among youth.en_US
