Summary: | The Bradburn Affect Balance Scale Approach is used to measure the positive, negative, and balanced effects of participating in Vedic rituals and believing in the existence of God on the psychological well-being of individuals. An exploratory as well as a descriptive research design is used to formulate and test the hypothesis. Frequency test, Chi-Square (Cramer’s V), Correlation, and Regression are used to find the cause-and-effect results. Three regression models are employed in the study. The first regression model found that there is an effect of belief in the existence of God on the positive psychological well-being and that participating in Vedic rituals has no effect on the positive psychological well-being. The second model showed that there is no significant impact of belief in the existence of God and participating in Vedic rituals on the negative psychological well-being. While the third explained that there is an effect of belief in the existence of God on the balanced psychological well-being, and there is no effect of participating in Vedic rituals on the balanced psychological well-being. This research is beneficial to understand the psychological well-being of a person based on the two important factors of participating in Vedic rituals (religion) and the belief in the existence of God (spirituality). |
