Abstract

Using self-esteem, personality characteristics, and emotional intelligence as intrapersonal factors and familial environment as interpersonal ones, this study investigates psychological well-being as a multi-dimensional concept. This research is to examine the integrative and interactive impacts of personal and relational domains on psychological well-being in light of the growing number of mental health concerns in modern society. Standardised psychological questionnaires were used to collect data from a broad population. The data was analysed using correlation and regression techniques, following a quantitative approach. The findings highlight the importance of self-esteem, showing a strong correlation between high levels of self-worth and both life satisfaction and emotional resilience. Consistent predictors of well-being among personality characteristics, showing the effect of dispositional variables, include extraversion, conscientiousness, and low neuroticism. Individuals with high levels of emotional intelligence are better able to adapt psychologically, which in turn improves their coping skills and their ability to effectively interact with others. When it comes to interpersonal dynamics, having a supportive and cohesive family environment may help shield you from psychological pain, while also fostering emotional stability and personal development.
