摘要：Senior secondary is the level when an individual starts thinking and exploring various career options based upon his interest. This is the time when major physical, emotional and mental transformations take place. Feelings and emotions play a significant role in choosing a career. Present study was carried out to find out the relationship between emotional maturity and career maturity and also the extent to which emotional maturity contributes to career maturity. This study was conducted by adopting survey research method. 309 adolescents studying in senior secondary schools were randomly selected for the purpose of the study. Questionnaires were used to collect data on emotional maturity and career maturity. Data analysis included correlation and regression. Results indicated significant relationship between both the variables. Results also signaled that emotional maturity is a good predictor of career maturity.
