Participants completed standardized questionnaires measuring self-control, emotional processing, and psychological well-being. Descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple regression analysis were conducted using SPSS version 22 to assess the relationships between the variables.</p> <p><strong>Findings: </strong>Pearson’s correlation analysis revealed significant positive correlations between psychological well-being and both self-control (r = .45, p &lt; .001) and emotional processing (r = .38, p &lt; .001). Multiple regression analysis indicated that self-control (B = .48, β = .39, p &lt; .001) and emotional processing (B = .32, β = .27, p &lt; .001) were significant predictors of psychological well-being, explaining 27% of the variance in well-being (R² = .27, F(2, 382) = 72.85, p &lt; .001).</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The findings suggest that both self-control and emotional processing are significant predictors of psychological well-being among young adults, with self-control playing a slightly more substantial role. These results underscore the importance of developing interventions aimed at enhancing self-control and emotional processing to promote mental health and well-being in this population.</p> <p> </p> https://journals.kmanpub.com/index.php/jarac/article/download/3145/5009
