Subjective well-being merupakan salah satu topik psikologi positif yang penting untuk dikaji dalam tahapan usia emerging adult. Berbagai tantangan dan permasalahan yang dilalui dapat menjadi faktor risiko bagi well-being mereka. Di antara berbagai aspek yang dapat berhubungan dengan subjective well-being, solitude diasumsikan berperan sebagai faktor protektif bagi well-being. Solitude merupakan kondisi objektif dari kesendirian yang umumnya digunakan secara konstruktif. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini hendak melihat hubungan solitude dan subjective well-being pada emerging adulthood. Terdapat 317 partisipan berusia 18-25 tahun (M = 21.51, SD = 1.78) yang berpartisipasi dalam penelitian ini. Hasil penelitian menggunakan alat ukur Perth A-Loneness Scale (PALs) (Houghton dkk., 2014) dan The PERMA-Profiler adaptasi Indonesia (Elfida dkk., 2021) menunjukkan bahwa solitude berhubungan positif signifikan dengan subjective well-being. Temuan ini dapat diartikan bahwa semakin tinggi kecenderungan dewasa muda menerapkan solitude maka semakin tinggi tingkat subjective well-being.
