Abstract |
The subjective well-being is defined as one's cognitive and affective assessment of a person's life (Diener, Lucas & Oshi, 2002). This article aims to measure the subjective well-being of women between age 20 to 59 years old in Malaysia. For measurement purposes, this article has adopted the Personal Well-being Index (PWI) instrument developed by the International Wellbeing Group. |
