The aim of the present study was to examine the role of emotional empathy and psychological needs towards life satisfaction. The sample was comprised of 300 (150 boys and 150 girls) adolescents in the age range of 18-22 years. Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) by Diener, Emmons, Larsen and Griffin (1985), Emotional Empathy by Multi-Dimensional Emotional Empathy Scale (Caruso & Mayer,1998) and Basic Psychological Needs Scale (BPNS) were used to collect the data from adolescents. Pearson's Product Moment Correlation method was used to analyze the results. The findings indicated that life satisfaction was positively related with emotional empathy and negatively related with psychological needs of adolescent boys and girls.Keywords

This aim of the research was to study the differences between first-boms and later-bom in terms of personality and risk-taking behaviour. For the purpose of this study, between subject design was utilised. A sample size of 120 was selected, comprising of adolescents and young adults falling in the age group of 16 to 25. A self- developed demographic sheet, The Eysenck Personality Inventory and The Dospert Scale were used to study the three parameters. In the sample population, it was found that neuroticism was significantly different across birth orders (p<0.05). However, no such difference was revealed while considering the dimension of extraversion. Similarly, risk-taking propensity was also not found to be significantly different (p>0.05). Male and female subject did not differ significantly in four out of five domains of risk-taking behaviour. Significant difference was found between the genders in case of recreational domain of risk-taking behaviour. Future research can take into account a wider sample size, geographical area, and more subsets of the variables and finally can take up a more multicultural study.Keywords
