Abstract

Background: Emotions are central to one’s life to perceive, experience and express himself to others and to communicate about themselves and their feelings to others ; every person has the ability to experience, express and control one’s emotion, but how a person does this depends upon the level of emotional maturity he or she possess. Research studies reveal that people with higher emotional maturity tend to handle their emotions efficiently and are found to experience less stress or perceive a situation to be less stressful. Aim: The aim of the present study is to find out the influence of emotional maturity on emotional regulation and perceived stress among corporate workers.
