Abstract
The aim of the present study is to compare the “Adjustment and Self esteem of young adults belonging to both-working parents and single-working parent families”. In the study, sample consisted of 50 total young adults (18-22 yrs), 25 each belonging to the two groups. Here, t-test for independent sample was used to see the difference between the two groups on adjustment and its different dimensions and self esteem. Correlation between adjustments, its different dimensions and self esteem were also obtained. The results indicate that total adjustment of children of single-working parent families is higher and also showed high adjustment on health and social areas. Self esteem is found higher in young adults from both working parent families but without much difference.
