Abstract | A person who generally manages the household of his or her own family is a homemaker (“Homemaker Definition and Meaning | Collins English Dictionary,” 2023). Being a patriarchal society, India has traditionally had a male head of household who earns much of the household income, with the female providing domestic help and backup. Homemakers frequently work from dawn until dusk and perform a variety of jobs, including those of wife, mother, housekeeper, nurse, teacher, and chef, unaware of the effect this has on their mental health. The present study aims to find if there exists a difference in the psychological well-being of homemakers living in urban and rural areas, respectively. 114 subjects from the states of Gujarat and Maharashtra were administered the Psychological Well-Being Scale (Sisodia and Choudhary, 2012). The findings indicated that there is no significant difference in the overall psychological well-being of homemakers living in urban and rural areas. However, while evaluating the subscales of Psychological Well-Being Scale, it was found that there exists a difference in mental health and sociability of the two respective areas of residence. |
