The present study examined the relationship between perceived emotional neglect, social emotional competence, and interpersonal dependency among young individuals, along with gender differences. A quantitative correlational design was used. The sample consisted of 300 university students from Faisalabad, aged 15 to 35 years. Data were collected using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), Social Emotional Competence Questionnaire (SECQ), and Interpersonal Dependency Scale (IDS), and analyzed using SPSS.
The results showed non-significant relationships between emotional neglect and interpersonal dependency, and between social emotional competence and interpersonal dependency. However, a significant negative relationship was found between emotional neglect and social emotional competence.
