Abstract:
The present study focuses on the association between religiosity, gratitude and life assessment in
young adults of Pakistan. Religiosity has been shown to have a link with gratitude and life
satisfaction in that it has a positive influence on both. However, the specific link between these
variables and the extent to which these variables are associated have been the topic of interest in
research. A sample of 500 young adults, from three different universities, were selected through
convenient sampling technique, equally distributed across male and female with ages between 18
to 25(M= 21.24, SD = 1.66). Three Scales have been used in this study Contentment of Life
assessment scale (CLAS), the gratitude questionnaire (GQ-6) and the Dimensions of Religiosity
scale (DRS). Correlation analysis demonstrated that there exists a relationship between
religiosity, gratitude and life assessment. However, this association is a weak one.
