Purpose in life

Explanation:

The Ryff Well-Being inventory was developed by psychologist Carol D. Ryff, the 42-item Psychological Wellbeing (PWB) Scale measures six aspects of wellbeing and happiness: autonomy, environmental mastery, personal growth, positive relations with others, purpose in life, and self-acceptance.

Purpose in Life: To get a high score the respondent's must have strong goal orientation and conviction that life holds meaning.

For Pamela not to care of her disatisfaction of her low-paying job is a reflection of how she thinks about life as meaningless and nothing to strive for. She would probably score lowest ion this dimension.
