This study explores the relationship between the Need for Cognitive Closure (NFC) and Lifelong Learning (LL) among young adults in India. Drawing on a sample of 102 participants aged 18 to 25, data was collected using standardized questionnaires. The findings reveal a significant negative correlation between Need for Cognitive Closure and Lifelong Learning, suggesting that a decrease in Need for Cognitive Closure is associated with an increase in Lifelong Learning tendencies. Linear regression analysis further confirms this relationship, indicating that Need for Cognitive Closure negatively influences Lifelong Learning. These results underscore the importance of fostering cognitive flexibility and open-mindedness to promote lifelong learning engagement among young adults.
