Abstract The present study explores the metacognitive skills and Psychological Well-Being among senior secondary school students of Central Kashmir. Metacognition, often described as "thinking about thinking," encompasses students' ability to plan, monitor, and evaluate their learning processes. Psychological Well-Being on the other hand is a state encompassing emotional stability, life satisfaction and effective coping with stress. Recognizing their critical role in academic success, this research aims to assess the levels of metacognitive awareness and Psychological Well- Being among senior secondary school students. The study also investigates potential gender differences in these domains. A quantitative research design was employed, involving a representative sample (i.e. 378, M=200, F=178) of senior secondary students. Standardized tool Metacognitive skills scale of Madhu Gupta and Suman (2017) was used to measure metacognitive skills and Psychological Well-Being Scale of D.S Sisodia and Pooja Chowdhary (2019) was used to assess Psychological Well-Being. Statistical analyses revealed no significant difference on MCS on the basis of gender. However, a significant difference was found on the variable Psychological Wellbeing among Senior Secondary School Students on the basis of their Gender. The findings underscore the importance of integrating metacognitive training and Psychological Well-Being into the school curriculum to enhance student learning outcomes. Implications for educators and recommendations for future research are discussed.
