Subjective Variables have no Impact on Subjective Well-being of Polices.

The purpose of the present study was to see whether subjective variables have any impact on subjective well-being of police population. Six subjective variables were measured such as job position (job rank), marital status, selfreported socioeconomic status, educational qualification, career interest, and staying with family were included in the study. Among these variables job position and educational qualification varied in 4 ways and other four variables varied in 2 ways. The multivariate and univariate test results indicate that the main effects of each of these variables, and their interaction effects were all non-significant. Thus subjective variables are not important determinants of subjective well-being of polices.
