Abstract
Adolescence represents a pivotal developmental phase where individuals transition from childhood to adulthood, encountering multifaceted changes across physical and psychological realms. This study investigates the complex interplay between external social interactions and the shaping of individual traits during this critical period. The primary aim was to scrutinize the relationship between peer victimization, conflict resolution strategies, and psychological adaptation among adolescents. The study involved teenagers attending educational institutions in Lahore and Faisalabad, selected through a sampling method based on convenience. Analysis revealed compelling insights: a significant positive correlation emerged between peer victimization and psychological adjustment. Furthermore, a noteworthy association surfaced between conflict resolution abilities, instances of peer victimization, and psychological adaptation. These findings underscore the impactful role of peer victimization on teenagers' psychological well-being, emphasizing the imperative need for integrating robust conflict resolution mechanisms within this demographic. In essence, this study illuminates the intricate nexus between peer victimization, conflict resolution competencies, and their collective influence on the psychological adjustment of adolescents. The results accentuate the urgency of addressing peer victimization through proactive conflict resolution strategies, thereby fostering healthier psychological outcomes among teenagers during their formative years
