dc.description.abstractThe current study investigated the relationship between self esteem, academic achievement, aggression and its sub scales among adolescents with an age range of 18 to 21 years. The study comprised two phases. In the first place, high and low aggression and its subscales were identified and observed among adolescents. The correlation between the subscales of aggression named physical aggression, verbal aggression, anger and hostility was found with its positive and negative outcomes on self-esteem. In the second place positive-negative outcomes were observed comparing the correlates named gender and academic achievements. Bus and Perry Aggression Questionnaire (BPAQ) scale and The Rosenberg Self- Esteem (RSE) scale were administered on a sample of 152 randomly selected university students comprising boys and girls. Results revealed that aggression and its subscales were found to be significantly and positively correlated with each other whereas, hostility was found negatively correlated with self-esteem. GPA showed no significance with any of the study variable. Furthermore, individuals with low self-esteem were found more hostile and individuals with high self-esteem were moderately high on verbal aggression. No difference was found between high and low self-esteem groups on the rest of the study variables.en_US
