The main objective of the present study is to investigate the relationship between gratitude and psychological well-being among youths. The gratitude scale and psychological well-being scale were administered on 152 students from post-graduate classes. The positive correlation coefficient was found between gratitude and psychological well-being (r= 0.438, p .01) among youths. Significant positive correlation coefficients were also found between gratitude and psychological well-being in male youths (r = .614, p <.01) and in female youths (r = .433, p <.01).
