This master's thesis explores the relationship between psychological well-being and attachment to parents, peers, and God during the transition to adulthood. Based on attachment theory and the concept of psychological well-being, the study includes 205 participants and uses three validated instruments (IPPA, AGI, PWBS).
The findings show that secure peer attachment is the strongest predictor of psychological well-being, followed by attachment to mother and to God. Higher levels of spiritual anxiety were identified as a significant negative factor for mental health. Gender and age differences indicate that women and younger adults report higher well-being.
This study contributes to existing theories by incorporating the spiritual dimension and confirms that interpersonal and spiritual relationships significantly shape psychological well-being in emerging adulthood. The results provide a foundation for developing targeted interventions in mental health and relational support.
