Abstract
The major objective of the present study was to explore the nature of social identity and subjective well being among the members of Hindu and Muslim community. The sample composed of 40 Hindu and 40 Muslim participants. The 2x2x2 factorial design was used for the study. To know the effect of independent variables, a Univariate factorial ANOVA was performed. The finding suggests that Muslim community has scored high on social identity scale in comparison to Hindu community. Whereas, gender and age level has no significant effect on social identity. The community and gender has no significant difference on the level of subjective well being (SWB) but age level has significant effect on SWB. Young adults of both community and both gender have high scores on SWB. A significant positive correlation was found between social dentity and subjective well being.
