Abstract
Lexical and statistical researches have shown that a six factor model is able to explain the personality structure well. Those six factors are honesty-humility, emotionality, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experience. The aim of this research was to investigate the relationship of the HEXACO model of personality with psychological and subjective well-being, and religious orientation. 235 Iranian and 226 Polish college students completed the HEXACO personality inventory-60 (Ashton & Lee, 2009), religious orientation scale-revised (Hill, 1999), Ryff's (1989) scales of psychological well-being, subjective happiness scale (Lyubomirsky & Lepper, 1999), and satisfaction with life scale (Diener, Emmons, Larsen, & Griffin, 1985). The results showed that within both Iranian and Polish contexts, honesty-humility was the strongest personality factor correlated to intrinsic religiosity. Also, within both contexts, extraversion was the strongest predictor of subjective and psychological well-being. After controlling the HEXACO factors, religiosity could predict some account of variance in well-being
