In the present investigation, an attempt has been made to understand the influence of affluenza on the subjective well-being of undergraduate youth. 102 male and female students, aged 18 to 24, made up the sample for the current study. The World Health Organisation Well-being Index (WHO-5) and the Affluenza Scale were given to them. The data were gathered via random sampling procedures. The data was analyzed by using a t-test, Pearson product-moment coefficient of correlation, and linear regression in SPSS version 22. The result of the present study suggests that affluenza has a significant negative impact on the subjective well-being of undergraduate youth.
