Abstract

The study was conducted in three universities of GNDU, Amritsar; PAU, Ludhiana and PUP, Patiala of Punjab, India to investigate the gender differences and relationship between academic adjustment and interpersonal support among university students of Punjab. The sample consisted of 480 university students randomly selected from three chosen purposively government universities. An equal number of students are distributed across both genders. The academic adjustment of the university students was measured using the Academic Adjustment Scale and Interpersonal Support Evaluation scale to measure the peer support available to university students. Data were analyzed using a t-test and Karl-Pearson’s coefficient of correlation. The results also showed that female students displayed significantly better academic adjustment and interpersonal support as compared to male students.
