    FUNCTIONAL IMPAIRMENT, ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AND SUBJECTIVE WELL BEING OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS WITH MIGRAINE
    (KINNAIRD COLLEGE PSYCHOLOGY DEPARTMENT, 0023-06-12) JABAL-E-NOOR
    The main aim of this study was to explore the impact of functional impairment and academic performance on the subjective well-being of university students with migraine. 75 university students diagnosed with migraine with the age range of 18-28 years were recruited for the study. In these 75 participants 18 were males and 57 were females and all belonged from different universities of Pakistan. Firstly, the participants were asked to fill the Migraine Screening Questionnaire and once they fulfilled the criteria, then they were selected for the study. Academic performance was measured through Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of the students. For functional impairment and Subjective well-being, Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale (WFIRS) and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) were used respectively. The results indicated that multiple dimensions of functional impairment have a significant, negative relationship with subjective wellbeing of university students. However, academic performance of university students does not a significantly correlate with their subjective well-being. Results further showed that Functional impairment emerged as significant predictor of the later well-being of students explaining that impairments in the domain of self-concept predicts the overall life satisfaction and subjective well-being of university students. Strengths, limitations, implications and future recommendations are discussed
