Abstract: 85 boys and 47 girls, studying at undergraduate level in Jalgaon, were administered Big Five Personality inventory by Costa & McCrae and Hastland forgiveness scale. It was hypothesized that neuroticism and forgiveness are negatively and strongly related. Relationships between extraversion, openness, agreeableness, conscientiousness and forgiveness are positive and strong. Results of the study supported both the hypotheses. All the three measures of forgiveness: forgiveness of self, forgiveness of others and forgiveness of situations were negatively and very strongly related to neuroticism.
