Abstract- Young adulthood is a period of development and healthy women are the cornerstone of healthy society. Technology fulfils many human needs but it’s over usage is a risk. Being addictive to technology has its effects on psychological and physical well-being of an individual. For a brighter and healthier future, it is essential to ensure the well-being of young adult women.

The research design used is an ex post facto design. 60 women (Post graduate) students from professional and non-professional disciplines (30 in each group), using internet (at least for past six months) are included in the study. Young’s internet addiction scale and Riff’s psychological well-being scale are used to measure internet addiction and Psychological well-being respectively .Statistical analysis such as independent t’ test, correlation coefficient and regression analysis were done and results reveal that professional young adult women significantly differed in Psychological well-being than non-professional young adult women. Negative correlation exists between Internet addiction and Psychological wellbeing. Demographic variables did not significantly predict Internet addiction.
