The present study employed the correlational research design to explore the relationship among self-esteem, religiosity and psychological adjustment in university students and to find out the predictors of psychological adjustment in university students. The sample comprised of 300 Muslim students including 150 boys and 150 girls of age range 20-22 years (M = 21.28, SD= .78). Data were collected from two Public universities of Lahore e.g. GCU and Punjab University by employing convenient sampling strategy. Demographic questionnaire, Self-esteem scale (Riffai, 1999), Religious activity scale (Sitwat, 2003), Religious belief scale (Dawood & Naz, 2003) and Psychological adjustment scale (Sabbir, 1999) were administered. Findings revealed significant positive relationship between self-esteem, religious activity and psychological adjustment in university students. However, religious beliefs did not show any relationship with psychological adjustment. Results also showed that self-esteem is a strongest predictor of psychological adjustment in university students. The findings also showed significant gender differences on religious activity but no gender differences were found in self-esteem and religious belief. Implications of the study are also discussed.
