Abstract Abstract: One of the most powerful factors in shaping a person's personality, attitudes, and behaviour is their emotional maturity. This helps them take ownership of their actions, make intelligent choices, work well in groups, build strong bonds with others, boost their self-esteem, and learn to adapt to their circumstances rather than blaming others for their shortcomings. Methodology: A total 200 samples of boys and girls’ students was selected through random sampling methods. A self-constructed questionnaire was used to collect the background information. For collecting the emotional maturity, Emotional Maturity Scale developed by DR. Yashvir Singh and Dr. Mahesh Bhargava was used to collect the required information. Results: majority of adolescents are in the age group of 16-17 years and 55% of respondents were from nuclear family. The overall mean score indicated that the adolescent’s have low level of emotional maturity and in relation with the gender, it shows that the female adolescents are less emotionally stable then male adolescents. Conclusion: Adolescents' emotional state should be raised in the home and in institutions by using various forms of role play and parental encouragement.
