Journal Title: International Journal of Educational Science and Research (IJESR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Emotions do play central role in the life of an individual. One is expected to have higher emotional maturity in order to lead an effective life. It is also true that our behavior is constantly influenced by the emotional maturity level that we possess. Especially, the adolescents who are observed to be highly emotional in their dealings need to be studied. Results of the present study highlighted that majority of the adolescents were in the age group of 16-17 years, studying in 11th standard. Gender wise results illustrate that 50.0 per cent of males were moderately emotionally mature against 20.0 per cent females. Emotional regression and personality disintegration was higher in males than female adolescents. Non- significant and negative correlation existed between age and sex with emotional maturity aspects which shows that with increase in age, emotional instability, regression, social maladjustment, personality disintegration and lack of independence will go on decreasing. Further emotional maturity of adolescents was found positively correlated with their father’s occupation and their educational level which shows that with increase in adolescent’s educational level and father’s occupational level, adolescent’s emotional maturity go on increasing.
