A light-sensitive element for the diffusion transfer process which comprises a support having thereon a light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith a yellow dye providing compound represented by the following general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein CAR represents a carrier moiety which is capable of releasing a diffusible dye from the compound in correspondence or counter-correspondence to development under alkaline conditions; Link represents a group connecting CAR with a diffusible dye; m represents 0 or 1; the dotted lines mean that at least one of the dotted lines is a bond; R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an aryl group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, an aryloxycarbonyl group or a carbamoyl group; R.sup.2 represents an alkyl group or an aryl group; and R.sup.3 represents an aryl group excepting an aryl group having the Hammett's .sigma..sub.p value less than 0.01. The yellow dye providing compound has a dye moiety whose transferability is high and whose hue is excellent and provides a stable yellow dye image which does not substantially change hue over a wide pH range.
