ABSTRACT
Adolescence is a period of substantial changes. As a result, research
on adolescent personality change has been on the rise in the last
decade (Klimstra, 2013). Erikson (1968) describes adolescence as a
developmental period of “assess the identity versus role confusion”.
Adolescence is the critical transition period because adolescents
become more independent and begin to consider the future in terms
of relationships, families, careers, and their own identity.
Adolescence is the period of maximum growth with regard to
cognitive mental functioning. Intellectual powers like long-term
memory, logical thinking, abstract reasoning, problem-solving, and
decision-making abilities are developed during their stage. Cognitive
development takes place at a fast pace during adolescence. Education
plays a major role in shaping adolescents’ life through their
adjustment ability, decision-making capacity. As a whole, the
personality of a person develops in the desired manner in society. In
the present investigation, an attempt is made to assess the adjustment,
decision-making ability in relation to the personality of adolescents.
The survey method was used to assess the adjustment and decision-
making ability of college students in relation to their personalities.
