The study aimed at developing a problem checklist (PCL) for Pakistani adolescents (college students), to explore their everyday problems. This model of PCL is conceptually based on the work of Mooney and Gordon (1950). The list has been developed in different stages and different number of participants participated in each stage. The participants have been taken from the colleges of four cities i.e., Rawalpindi, Karachi, Lahore, and Peshawar. Their age ranged 16 to 23 years. At stage I, 20 students participated in the exploration of students problems with the help of Mooney Problem Checklist (MPCL; Mooney & Gordon, 1950). In stage II, 108 students were asked to enlist all the bothersome problems faced by adolescents. In stages Ill and IV, the list of problems was scrutinized and selection of problems for final version of PCL was made. In stage V, test retest reliability as well as face validity of the PCL was tested. A total of 43 items were discarded, and then a study was conducted to see the most common problems faced by Pakistani adolescents. 200 students participated in this study. Test retest reliability is found to be 0.87 (p< . 001). Face validity is found to be fairly high. Rest of the results are discussed in terms of frequency and percentage of responses of subjects to various problems of PCL.
