The present paper aims to understand the relation of Anxiety and Subjective Well-Being in Male and Female Non Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM) patients. Data were collected from 300 NIDDM patients, 150 males and 150 females from the age 40 -70 years. Tools used to collect data were- Subjective Well-Being Inventory ( Brinda Amritraj) and IPAT Anxiety Scale ( S. D Kapoor ) measuring 1) Q3- Perfectionism, 2) O- Apprehension, 3) Q4 Tension, 4) C Emotional Stability and 5) L – Vigilance. It was found that there exists a low but significant negative relation between Anxiety and Subjective Well-Being in NIDDM patients. It is seen that O (Apprehension) and C (Emotional Stability) are significantly related to Subjective Well-Being while the other factors are not significantly related to Subjective Well-Being. The analysis reveals that females reported a significant negative correlation between Anxiety (Q4, O, C) and Subjective Well Being while males reported a non significant relationship between all aspects of Anxiety and Subjective Well-Being. . Thus, it can be implied that 1) Anxiety has a low but significant effect on Subjective Well-Being in NIDDM patients 2) Gender influences the relationship between Anxiety and Subjective Well-Being in NIDDM patients.
