Abstract
Self-harm and risk-taking is an increasing concern among college students. Self-harm, which encompasses a range of deliberate, non-suicidal acts of physical harm inflicted on oneself, has received a lot of attention because it is so common among young adults, particularly those in higher education. Concurrently, risk-taking behaviors ranging from substance abuse to reckless driving have been extensively investigated for their effects on psychological well-being and decision-making processes. This research aims to identify the presence of self-harm tendency and risk-taking behavior and their correlation within the college population. A mixed sampling method has been used in this research, initially, the researchers used the Convenience sampling method for selecting college students and secondly, Simple random sampling was used for collecting data. Data were collected among 428 students within the college population. The tools used to collect data were the General Risk Propensity Scale (GRIPs) and Functional Assessment for Self-Mutilation (FASM). The data analysis performed in the study is Spearman correlation which revealed that there is a negative correlation between self-harm and risk-taking behaviour among college students
