Abstract

The aim of current study was to answer the question; are specific personality dimensions related to just world beliefs in young adult students?. Two hundred and sixty four students enrolled in various universities completed measures of personal beliefs in just world (Fatima & Khalid, 2007), the scale of belief in immanent and ultimate justice (Fatima, 2009) and the ten-item personality inventory (Gosling, Rentfrow & Swann Jr, 2003) in group setting. The age range of participants was 18 to 25 with mean age of 21.8 (SD=2.2). Stepwise regression analyses confirmed that only openness to experience is related to personal-BJW (F (1,262) = 13.766, p <.000). This identification of personality trait contributes to the development of theoretical framework related to just world beliefs. Limitation and recommendation are discussed
