The present study analyzed the emotional maturity of 160 adolescents across their peer pressure. Samples were selected using simple random sampling from Dehradun (rural areas). Self-designed demographic questionnaire was used to assess demographic traits of adolescents. Emotional maturity and peer pressure scales were used. Pearson Correlation Matrix was applied to calculate the relationship between emotional maturity of the respondents and peer pressure. There was no significant difference in composite emotional maturity of adolescents and peer pressure. However, overall negative correlation was observed between peer pressure and emotional maturity of adolescents.Keywords
