| dc.description.abstract | Stress level among Indian school children is high especially before getting into high school (i.e.) before their public exams. The objectives were to Appraise the perceived stress level of school children and identify its institution - specific differences, and to measure the stress level of the parents of the selected children and find out its association with the stress level of their children. The 8th standard students (N= 128) and their parents (T=128) of a school under private management (nl=76 and tl=76) and a school run by government (n2=53 and t2=52) in the district of Coimbatore, formed the sample for the study. A checklist was framed to assess the stress level of the selected school children. A parental stress scale with 5 point rating was also formulated. The study was conducted and the data elicited were subjected to statistical analysis. The study indicates higher stress among government school children when compared to private school children. The parental stress does not affect the stress level of parents. The influence of other variables are also discussed. | en_US |
