Career Maturity has its origin in the Super’s developmental theory of career behaviour, which envisages that selection of an occupation is a process spanning a considerable number of years usually from late childhood to early adulthood. Career Maturity describes one’s ability to successfully cope with vocational development tasks (e.g. crystallizing, specifying, and implementing career choice) that are encountered across the developmental continuum from exploration stage through withdrawal. The present investigation was meant to study the career decision maturity of secondary school students in relation to their self-concept. The study consisted of 200 school students of 11thclass randomly drawn from two different schools of Chandigarh. Data was collected with the help of Career Decision making Scale by Singh (2014) and Self-Concept Scale (Ahluwalia and Singh, 2012).
