In the phase of data collection, “Subjective Well-Being Scale” and “Multi-Dimensional Perceived Social Support Scale” were used. It was discovered that perceived social support predicted 43 per cent of subjective well-being. In addition to this, it was determined that perceived family support predicted subjective well-being, and on the other hand the support which was perceived towards a special person and perceived friend support did not predicted subjective well-being.
