Student Time Perspective and Well-Being

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the thesis is to research the connections between time perspective and well-being of university students. The following investigative methods were used: The Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory and Ryff Scales of Psychological Well-Being. The group consisted of 127 students of the Pedagogical University in Cracow, Poland. The research demonstrated that the negative past and fatalistic present were negatively associated with all aspects of well-being. The future and the past were positively associated with most of the well-being scales. In relation to the present-hedonistic scale no clear connections to well-being were found. However, if high results in that scale are balanced with high results in the future scale, the feeling of well-being is also higher (for some aspects). High future orientation was, in this case, always positively connected with well-being, regardless of the fact whether it was balanced with present-hedonistic perspective or not. Suggestions for future research directions on obtaining optimal time perspective, conducive to well-being, were presented.
