Adolescence is a phase of physical, emotional, social variations, adjustment and development. Anxiety can impact self-esteem, interpersonal relationships and may lead to alienation. The study investigated the interrelationships among these variables on undergraduate females and males (40 each) between the ages of 18 and 23 years. Sinha’s Comprehensive Anxiety Scale (1971)(34), Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory (1967)(11) and Sharma’s Alienation scale (1988)(32) were used to test the variables. Significant differences were found among female college students reporting higher anxiety, self-esteem and alienation than male college students.

However, gender differences were found and valid linkages were explored between anxiety and alienation.
