The study is a cross-sectional study using purposive sampling method. It is to assess if self-compassion and emotional intelligence leads to post-traumatic growth  among adolescents with adverse childhood experiences. The estimated sample size is 77 and the site of sample collection will be Namma Bhoomi (An NGO in Kundapura), for a study period of 4 months. The results will be statistically analysed using multiple linear regression analysis. If self-compassion and emotional intelligence does play a role in post-traumatic growth, institutes that cater to this population can develop interventions that facilitate post traumatic growth through the variables self-compassion and emotional intelligence.
