Abstract The present study investigated the impact of life skills on social isolation among secondary school adolescents. Adolescence is a critical developmental stage during which individuals face numerous social, emotional, and psychological challenges. Life skills are essential competencies that enable adolescents to cope effectively with these challenges and maintain healthy social relationships. The study aimed to examine the differences in life skills and social isolation with respect to gender and locality, and to determine the impact of life skills on social isolation. A normative survey method was employed, and data were collected from a sample of 150 secondary school adolescents using standardized scales on life skills and social isolation. The findings revealed significant differences in life skills based on gender and locality, with girls and rural adolescents demonstrating higher life skills than boys and urban adolescents, respectively. The results also indicated significant differences in social isolation, with girls experiencing higher levels of social isolation than boys and urban adolescents reporting higher levels of social isolation than rural adolescents. Further analysis revealed a significant negative impact of life skills on social isolation, indicating that adolescents with higher levels of life skills tend to experience lower levels of social isolation. The study concludes that life skills serve as important protective factors that enhance social connectedness, emotional well-being, and positive social adjustment among adolescents. The findings highlight the need for integrating life skills education into school curricula to promote holistic development and reduce social isolation among secondary school students.
