Abstract :
This study examined the role of
Psychological Well-being, Spirituality, Subjective
happiness, and satisfaction with life on the
Psychopathic traits of an individual. The objective of
the study was to compare the role of psychopathic
traits, Psychological Well-being, Spirituality, Subjective
happiness, and Satisfaction with life in individuals who
have been sentenced to imprisonment (criminals). The
importance of this study is, to find out whether the lack
of Psychological Well-being, Subjective Happiness,
Spirituality, and Satisfaction with life can predict
Psychopathic traits. The recent findings show that there
is a negative correlation between Psychological Well-
being, Subjective Happiness, Spirituality, and
Satisfaction with life and Psychopathic traits. This
study was conducted using data collected from 101
prisoners from the central jail in Uttarakhand with
ages ranging from 20 to 40 years. After reviewing the
institutional background, a purposive sampling method
was used to select the sample from the population and a
cross-sectional survey research method was conducted
on a closed-ended questionnaire and the response is
taken on a Likert scale. Theoretical and practical
implications of the results show that there is a weak
negative correlation between Psychopathic traits with
Spiritual Experience, Satisfaction with Life, and
Subjective Happiness, and a strong positive correlation
with Psychological Well Being. And Psychological Well
Being is the significant predictor variable of
Psychopathic traits as Dependent Variable.
