A large number of studies have found that individuals with learning disability are more likely to experience multitude of problems like school dropouts, loneliness, adjustment problems, substance abuse, juvenile delinquency, etc. Attempts to promote positive outcomes in people with learning disability have become imperative. The current study, thus, examined whether there existed any relationship between self-determination and life satisfaction among adolescents with learning disability. Arc's Self-determination Scale and Satisfaction with Life Scale were administered to thirty adolescents with learning disability and thirty six adolescents without learning disability. A chi square was computed to understand the life satisfaction among adolescents with high and low Self-determination. Results showed that adolescents with learning disability had high association between self determination and life satisfaction with statistical significance level χ2 (1) =4.8, p > .05. Implications of the study include the basic understanding of positive constructs like self-determination and life satisfaction which is primarily seen among adolescents with learning disability that can help in formulating training and skill building modules for better adjustment and satisfaction.Keywords

Obsessive-compulsive symptoms generally have an onset prior to age 25. If they exist in evident degree, they are by and large, hampering. Self-awareness is associated with good clinical outcome in case of obsessive-compulsive disorder. It gives a person an opportunity to choose different ways of being. People with increased self-awareness are more likely to accept themselves and the responsibilities resulting from their choices as well as actions. As result of it, past literature suggest that obsessive-compulsive symptoms reduce. In this context, it was assumed that perceived choice will mediate between self-awareness and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Therefore, the current research aimed to study the role of Perceived Choice as a mediating factor between Self-Awareness and Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms among emerging adults. Two hundred and eighty seven emerging adults(M= 133, F=154) participated in this study. Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory-Revised and Self-Determination Scale were used to measure the study variables and mediation analysis was done. The results revealed that Perceived Choice partially mediates between Self-Awareness and Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms with statistical significance level of χ2 (0) =.000, p > .000. Implications of the study include understanding the way in which these variables influence the symptoms and incorporating them in the therapeutic procedures accordingly.Keywords
