Abstract :

An attempt is made in the present investigation to assess the self-concept among adolescent boys and girls with regard to their locality and type of family. The sample population consisted of 160 adolescents (80 male and 80 female) belongs to nuclear and joint family systems from urban and rural localities. Self-Concept of the adolescents was assessed by using Self-Concept Questionnaire developed Raj Kumar Saraswat (1992). Since there are three independent variables and each varied into two ways, a 2x2x2 factorial design was employed. It was hypothesized that there would be significant difference between boys and girls, rural and urban adolescents belonging to joint and nuclear family with regard to their self-concept. The obtained data are quantitatively analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and it was found that there is no significant difference between boys and girls, rural and urban adolescents belong to joint and nuclear family with regard to their self-concept.
