Abstract EN
The aim of this research was to investigate the relation of psychological happiness of Sultan Qaboos University students with some variables using a specific questionnaire that was designed for the purpose of this study.
It consisted of 36 items that represent 3 dimensions (personal aspect, academic aspect, and social aspect).
The sample included 490 male and female students from all the university colleges (2016–2017 academic year enrolments).
The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of the questionnaire was .84.
The findings show that the majority of the students expressed a medium level of happiness (69.8%).
Significant relationships between the psychological happiness and gender and type of residence (on-campus, off campus) were found.
However, age, college and region did not significantly correlate with students’ psychological happiness.
