The purpose of this study was to compare the psychological wellbeing of
public and private university teachers in Pakistan. Psychological wellbeing is
generally conceptualized as an interaction of positive effects such as happiness
and optimal functioning of people in social and individual areas of life. Using
multistage sampling technique, 437 university teachers in four public and private
universities each were sampled for this study. Psychological Wellbeing Scale
previously validated by Akin (2012) and others comprising 30 statements with 7
point Likert scale was adapted by the researchers. The study found that overall,
male and female university teachers perceived similar level of psychological
wellbeing. Female teachers; however, perceived higher score in different factors
such as developing positive relations and self-acceptance. Unmarried teachers
perceived more purposeful life and personal growth than married teachers, while
married teachers perceived more autonomy than unmarried teachers. Further,
the teachers did not signifi cantly differ on psychological wellbeing based on their
university location (public and private) and their teaching experience. The study
found that teachers with higher ranks and designation signifi cantly differed in their
wellbeing than their colleagues with lower ranks
