| Description |
The study was conducted in Hisar district of Haryana and Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh where one school each from rural and urban area was selected. From each of the four selected schools of rural and urban area of Hisar and Kangra district, five hundred adolescents in the age group of 13-15 year were included. Self prepared questionnaire was used to delineate socio-personal variables. Dimensions of Temperament Scale by Chadha and Chandna (1996) was used for assessing temperament of adolescents. Family Environment Scale developed by Bhatia and Chadha (1993) was used to measure the family environment of the adolescents. A Positive Proactive Coping Inventory for adolescents developed by Greenglass et al. (2008) was used to assess the coping skills of adolescents. Aggression Scale developed by Mathur and Bhatnagar (2012) was used to study the nature of adolescent aggressive behavior. The results revealed that adolescents residing in rural area of Haryana had more aggression while in Himachal Pradesh aggression was more in adolescents of urban area. Gender wise significant differences were found in physical, verbal, relational and overall aggression in adolescents of both states. Adolescents of Himachal Pradesh were significantly better in most of the positive dimensions of temperament and family environment. Proactive and reflective coping was better in adolescents of Himachal Pradesh whilst emotional and avoidance coping was more in adolescents of Haryana state. Age, parental education, paternal occupation, caste and family income had negative yet significant correlation with aggression and positively influenced by ordinal position in both the states. Gender, family income, ordinal position, age, paternal education and maternal education were the significant predictors for aggression in adolescents of Haryana. But in Himachal Pradesh, residential area, family income, number of siblings, maternal occupation, gender and paternal education came out as significant predictors for aggression in adolescents. Age, gender and area wise significant improvement was found in physical, verbal and relational aggression among experimental group adolescents in both states after execution of intervention programme. Overall, aggression was significantly reduced in adolescents of both Haryana and Himachal Pradesh at post-testing stage. |
