Abstract

Every one of us at some point in our lives feel rejected by a friend, family member or romantic partner and a question often strikes our mind “Am I not good enough” “Why me” “Am I a failure”- and many other related questions. It’s perfectly fine to feel that way but some individuals develop exaggerated fear of being rejected. The main aim of the present study is to assess the significant differences among male and female on rejection sensitivity. For this purpose, a sample of 100 youth belonging to age group of 25-30 years was taken from Delhi NCR region. Data was analysed by using t-test. Following questionnaire was used for collecting the data i.e. Rejection Sensitivity by Berenson, Gyurak, Downey, Ayduk, Mogg, Bradley and Pine (2013). There would be a significant difference among male and female adults on rejection sensitivity.
