Abstract:
Life presents a continuous chain of struggle for existence and survivals. The purpose of this study was to observe the difference, if any, on the early –teen boys students of two different type schools. Subjects of this study were one hundred thirty five male Navodaya students of three age categories and similar number of age and height-weight-matched students from other than Navodaya schools (forty five students for each age group from each type of school). Three dimensions of adjustment inventory, namely- emotional adjustment, social adjustment and educational adjustment were the criterion measures. Mean, standard deviation (SD) and ANOVA followed by Post-Hoc LSD and independent t-test were the statistics used for data interpretation. Significance difference (p<0.05) was observed between Navodaya and other than Navodaya students in emotional adjustment, social adjustment and educational adjustment in the age group of 14-year and 15-year, 14-year and 14-year respectively. However, in 13-year age group the difference was not significant in emotional adjustment. In social adjustment the significant difference was not observed in 13-year and 15-year age group. It was also observed that there was no significant difference in 13-year and 15- year age group.
