Abstract

Emotional well-being is fundamental to children’s academic engagement, social development, and long-term mental health. The present cross-sectional quantitative study examined the emotional well-being of 264 elementary school students from eight government schools in Bhoirymbong Block, Meghalaya. A validated, child-friendly questionnaire assessed multiple domains including overall emotional status, worry, happiness, loneliness, peer relationships, school perception, fear of teachers, and examination anxiety. Descriptive findings indicated that 74.9% of students demonstrated healthy emotional status; however, emotional vulnerability increased significantly across grade levels. Inferential analyses revealed significant grade differences in emotional vulnerability, F(2, 261) = 9.34, p
