Background
This study examines the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI), personality types, and adolescents’ perceived psychological well-being (PWB) and identifies the most significant predictors of PWB among adolescents.

Material and methods
Using a method of purposive sampling, data were obtained from 400 male and female teenagers in Haryana state, India. For data analysis, the t-test, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis were used.

Results
The results of t-rest demonstrated that male and female adolescents differ on neuroticism and psychoticism, the two subdimensions of personality types. Correlation analysis revealed that EI, personality, and PWB are significantly correlated with each other. In addition, regression analysis revealed that EI, extroversion, neuroticism, and psychoticism are four significant predictors of PWB.

Conclusions
The study suggests some recommendations for parents and psychologists to be incorporated for better well-being of adolescents. EI and personality play vital roles in PWB and both are significant predictors of PWB.
