Self-Efficacy is a person’s particular set of beliefs that determine how well one can execute a plan of action in prospective situations (Bandura, 1977). Self-esteem is one's positive or negative attitude toward oneself and one's evaluation of one's own thoughts and feelings overall in relation to oneself (Rosenberg, 1965). Life satisfaction is defined as an overall assessment of feelings and attitudes about one’s life at a particular point in time ranging from negative to positive (Buetell, 2006). Slum is defined by as one or a group of individuals living under the same roof in an urban area, lacking in one or more of the following five amenities- durable housing (a permanent structure providing protection from extreme climatic conditions), sufficient living area (no more than three people sharing a room), access to improved water (water that is sufficient, affordable, and can be obtained without extreme effort), access to improved sanitation facilities (a private toilet, or a public one shared with a reasonable number of people), secure tenure (UN- HABITAT, 2006/7). The current research adopts a correlational design to find relation between self- efficacy, self- esteem, and life satisfaction in slum dwellers. It adopts a between group design for comparing genders with respect to self- efficacy, self- esteem, and life satisfaction. A non-probability purposive sampling technique has been adopted for selection of sample where 52 people living in slums were obtained out of which 19 are males and 33 are females. The findings of the study show positive correlation between self- efficacy and life satisfaction among slum dwellers. This suggest that initiative should be taken by government for cultivating skills, talents of poor people as this would foster their level of self- efficacy, self- esteem and would bring satisfaction in their lives.
