Abstract
This study examines the relationship between commitment strength and well-being, and the possible moderating effect of exploration in breadth. Prior research has shown that commitment strength is a strong predictor of well-being, and that exploration in breadth is of importance too. To test this possible moderation effect, we collected data of 90 first-year psychology students. They filled in a survey with multiple questions dedicated to these variables. As expected, a strong positive relationship between commitment strength and wellbeing was found. However, this relationship was not moderated by exploration in breadth. Meaning that exploration in breadth doesn’t have an influence on interaction between commitment strength and well-being. This implies that both commitment strength and exploration in breadth do contribute to a better well-being individually, rather than interactively.
