Executive functions are cognitive abilities that allocate for more goal-oriented and self-directed behavior. It is well established fact that these higher cognitive control abilities are associated with lower levels of negative emotion and allocate positive states. The objective of this piece of research was to examine the associations between positive psychological characteristics i.e. well-being, forgiveness and empathy with executive functions. The sample consisted of 100 post postgraduates who are taken from Maharshi Dayanand University, Rohtak by using incidental sampling technique. The age range of the sample varies from 20 to 30 years. The participants are administered Subjective Well-Being Inventory (SUBI), Heartland Forgiveness Scale (HFS), Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) and Executive Functions Index (EFI). The data were subjected to correlational analysts in order to assess the relationship between the variables. Further regression analysts was applied to identify positive psychological characteristics which predict executive functions. Results indicated that forgiveness, empathy and well-being seem associated with executive functions. Regression analysis indicated that three variables i.e. forgiveness dimensions i.e. Self and Situation and well-being total accounted for 32% of the variance in executive functions. Thus, it is evident that positive psychological attributes related to forgiveness (self & situation) and well being played a significance in executive functions.Keywords

In the transition period of adolescence, parenting styles (Authoritarian, Authoritative, Permissive and Neglectful) have an effect on behavioral and mental health problems (i.e., adjustment problems, antisocial behavior, depression, psychological distress, etc.) among adolescents. Parenting is a complex activity that includes specific behaviors which work individually as well as in clusters to influence child outcomes. In adolescent's parental involvement, encouragement of psychological autonomy and demand for age appropriate behavior combined with limit setting and monitoring (i.e., Authoritative parenting) contribute to good psychosocial and behavioral adjustment among adolescents. Parenting style has been found to predict the child's well being in various domains such as social competence, academic performance, psychological development, adjustment and problem behavior. Parenting style provide a robust indicator of parenting functioning that predict child welfare being across a wide spectrum of environments and across diverse communities of children. The present paper reviews the impact of parenting style on behavioral problems among adolescents.Keywords

Self-regulation is the capacity of the individual to disregard prominent responses and to regulate affects, cognitions, and behaviors. It is the ability to alter thoughts, feelings, desires and actions in the perspective of such higher goals and would represent one of the most adaptive variables of the human behaviour (Vohs & baumister, 2004). Selfregulation capacity was found to play a key role in the development of psychological well-being (e.g., Gagnon, Durand-Bush, & Young, 2016, Brilki, 2017) because high self-regulatory capacity should strengthen the intention- behaviour relationship because it enables an individual to inhibit undesired responses (de Ridder, Lensvelt- Mulders, Finkenauer, Stok, & Baumeister, 2012). Therefore, the present study attempts to examine whether the selfregulation ability might associate or linked with psychological well-being. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between self- regulation capacity and psychological well-being in 100 young adults. Short form of the original Self-Regulation Questionnaire (SSRQ; Carey, Neal, & Collins, 2004) and Psychological Well-Being scale (Ryff & Keyes, 1995) were used to fulfill the purpose of the study. Pearson correlation analyses showed that self-regulation capacity positively associated with psychological well-being and its dimension; personal growth, positive relations with others, purpose in life and self-acceptance and negatively associated with autonomy and environmental mastery. As a positive construct implication of self-regulation to maintain optimal mental health was discussed.Keywords
