Impact of Emotional Maturity and Mental Health on Academic Success Among High School Students
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study investigates the impact of emotional maturity and mental health on the academic success of high school students. Emotional maturity, encompassing the ability to manage emotions and maintain positive relationships, is essential for navigating the challenges of academic life. Similarly, mental health significantly influences students’ focus, motivation, and resilience. The research examines how these factors interact to shape students’ academic trajectories, highlighting the adverse effects of poor emotional regulation and untreated mental health issues on performance and attendance. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the study analyzes quantitative data from surveys and academic records alongside qualitative insights from interviews. The findings underscore the critical role of emotional and mental well-being in fostering academic success and emphasize the need for schools to prioritize emotional intelligence training and mental health support. By offering actionable recommendations, this research aims to inform policies and practices that promote holistic student development and academic excellence.
