Brief Statement of research work

My research primarily focuses on child, adolescent, and family psychology, particularly psychosocial well-being, childhood maltreatment, emotional regulation, and mental health. My PhD research explored the psychosocial outcomes of childhood maltreatment in adolescents, while my MPhil focused on the revision and validation of the Child Abuse Scale. I have also worked on psychological scale development, translation, and cultural validation, along with research on attachment, quality of life, academic integrity, and technology-related psychological issues. My aim is to produce culturally relevant and evidence-based research that contributes to mental health awareness and psychological practice in Pakistan.
