Abstract
The purpose of this study is to assess the status of stress among secondary school students with respect to their locale and emotional intelligence. For this, descriptive research under survey technique was used. Total sample of 1100 secondary school students were selected through incidental sampling technique. The data were collected with the help of two standardized tools i.e. Students Stress Scale by Akhtar (2011) and Emotional Intelligence Scaleby Singh and Narain (2014). The collected data were analyzed using the statistical method of analysis of variance (Two-way). Results of the study revealed that there exists no significant area-wise difference in secondary school students. The result inferred that secondary school students possessing different level of emotional intelligence did not differed significantly from each other with regard to their stress. Further, the study also revealed that area and emotional intelligence interacted significantly with respect to stress of secondary school students. The educational implications have been discussed at the end of the paper.
