The differences between the different age groups of females were also explored on forgiveness, self esteem and subjective well-being. To fulfill these objectives a sample of 120 females were taken between the age ranges of 20 to 59 years, having been divided into four age groups subsequently. Each group consisted of 30 participants. Self esteem was found to be significantly correlated with forgiveness and subjective well-being in the females of first age group (age range 20 to 29 years).Self esteem was significantly and positively correlated with subjective well-being in second group (age range 30 to 39 years) of females too. The results yielded the significant positive correlation between self esteem and subjective well-being and between forgiveness and subjective well-being in females of third age group (age range 40 to 49 years).
