Over the past 20 years, the psychological hardiness construct has emerged as a buffer in the relationship between stressors and illness and has been shown to enhance performance, conduct, and morale The present study examined the relationship between psychological hardiness and family environment of adolescents in a sample of 300 adolescents from Sangrur district of Punjab. The results of correlation analysis revealed that psychological hardiness among adolescents is significantly related to all the eight family environment components as well as total family environment. A stepwise multiple regression analysis was run to examine the extent to which the various dimensions of family environment contributed to the variability in psychological hardiness among adolescents. The results indicated that that family environment emerged as a significant predictor of control and challenge dimension of psychological hardiness and as well as total psychological hardiness among adolescents. However, none of the family environment components or total family environment emerged as a significant predictor of commitment dimension of psychological hardiness among adolescents. These results of the study have implications for counsellors, teachers and parents.Keywords
