<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the level of psychological well-being (PWB) of students living away from home on the island of Java (N = 126) using Ryff's model. This study applied a cross-sectional design using Ryff's Psychological Well-Being Short Scale (18 items), with data analysis including descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney and Kruskal Wallis nonparametric tests, and Spearman's correlation. The results of the analysis showed that the PWB level of migrant students was in the moderate category (M = 48.07). The dimensions of personal growth (M = 8.93) and environmental mastery (M = 8.78) received the highest scores. No significant differences in PWB were found based on gender, but self-acceptance increased with age (r = 0.266; p < 0.05). In addition, residential status had a significant effect on total PWB and the personal growth dimension, with students living in boarding houses showing the highest scores. Further research is recommended to use a longitudinal design to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of PWB among migrant students.]]>
