AbstractCollege life is the most enjoyable time as well as time for psychosocial development in every person. Colleges play a vital role in the development of adolescents, as they spend much time attending college, engaging in extracurricular activities, and completing academic work at home. Colleges represent institutions that contribute to overall educational and socialization processes, critical in personality development in adolescents. Because of tight schedules, the new atmosphere in colleges, examinations, inter personal relations with teachers and fellow students and the adolescence age, most of the students are facing some psychosocial problems such as anxiety, depression, lack of interest in studies, sleep problems, social dysfunction, substance abuse, educational difficulties, conduct disorders, etc. These psychosocial problems encompass a wide variety of disorders, prevalence of psychosocial problems also vary on the basis of the types of problems and screening tools used by the researchers. The adolescent psychosocial development is the process through which the dependent child becomes a self-reliant adult. During this period of adolescence, a large number of children suffer from psychosocial problems at one time or the other during their development. Many of these problems are transient in nature and are often not even noticed. Female students are more vulnerable to psychosocial problems than male students due to multiple roles and responsibilities in several settings. Hence the present study is aimed to assess the prevalence of psychosocial problems in female junior college students.
