Abstract: Through the years, a person’s emotional well-being improves on all levels, from the psychological to the intrapersonal. This is known as emotional maturity. Being able to defer one’s own reactions, being heterosexual, and appreciating the behaviour and attitude of others are all signs of an emotionally mature person. Therefore, a mature emotionally isn’t necessarily someone who has dealt with all the things that made them angry or anxious; rather, he is someone who is always working to obtain a better understanding of himself and who is fighting for a more balanced relationship between his feelings, thoughts, and actions. The purpose of this research was to examine the relationship between the emotional maturity of high school seniors and the overall and component-wise differences in emotional maturity according to gender and family type. The approach of normative survey was used.A hundred children were chosen at random from four different schools in Mumbai.For this study, the researchers used the Emotional Maturity Scale (EMS-SB) created by Bharagava and Singh (2005). According to the results, the majority of pupils lack emotional maturity, and there is a difference in emotional maturity based on the kind of household.
