The results showed that the mean score of happiness were between 42±46 that congruent with the score of happiness in developing countries. There were no significant relationships between the amount of happiness and variables like age, sex, marital status, the place of residence, education. But the relationship between happiness and field of study was significant. Pearson's correlation showed that SOCIAL HAPPINESS was significantly related to RELIGIOSITY, the use of mass media, HOPEFULNESS ABOUT FUTURE, and SELF-ESTEEM. The regression analysis also showed that the three variables of SELF-ESTEEM, HOPEFULNESS ABOUT FUTURE, and RELIGIOSITY explained about 44.8 percent of variance of the dependent variable.
