| dc.description.abstract | The study was conducted to know the influence of social maturity and academic achievement on depression among the II-PUC science students. The sample consisted of 463 students drawn from tutorials in Dharwad city during 2008-09. Social maturity was measured using the social maturity scale by Pal(1986) and depression was measured using the depression scale of Karim and Tiwari(1986). Percentage of marks obtained in previous 2years’ final exam was considered as academic achievement and self structured personal information schedule was used to know the personal information. Socio-economic status of the family was assessed using the SES scale by AICRP-CD (2002). The results revealed that, the students were medium on social maturity and there was no significant gender difference among the students. Academic achievement of SSLC PUCI family size had negative and significant relation with social maturity. The students had excellent and good academic achievement in SSLC and PUCI respectively and girls had excellent academic achievement in both the years. Age and family size had negative and significant relationship with academic achievement whereas parents’ education, family income and SES were positively and significantly related to academic achievement in SSLC and PUCI. The students had moderate depression, as compared to girls, boys were more depressed. Age family size had positive and parents’ education family income academic achievement of PUCI had negative and significant relationship with depression of the students. Social maturity had negative nonsignificant relation with depression. Age family size mothers’ education and academic achievement in PUCI contribute to develop the depression to the extent of 10%. Thus high social maturity and academic achievement may help in reducing the level of depression. | en_US |
