dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the relationship between psychological entitlement, personality traits, and life aspirations of Lebanese Millennials born between 1981 and 1996. A purposeful convenient sample of a total of 164 Lebanese Millennials participated in this study by filling a demographics questionnaire, the Psychological Entitlement Scale (PES), the Big Five Inventory (BFI), and the Aspirations Index (AI). Correlation analyses, t-tests, and multiple regression analysis were used to examine the relationships between the different variables. The results showed a significant positive relationship between psychological entitlement and extrinsic aspirations on one hand, and a significant positive association between psychological entitlement and trait extraversion on the other. Moreover, multiple regression analysis showed that both extrinsic aspirations and trait extraversion are predictors of psychological entitlement. The recommendations of this study focused on the importance of helping young people switch from extrinsic to intrinsic aspirations, in order to meet realistic goals and expectations as well as reach a healthier level of well-being and happiness.
