Abstract
An investigation to study the impact of development programmes among
the tribals of Kerala was carried out in the South Wynad and North Wynad
taluks of Wynad district. Two hundred tribal families selected from the four
major tribes of the district viz., Kurumans, Kurichians, Paniyans and Adiyans constituted
the sample of the study. The analysis of data revealed that there was no significant
difference in the mean adoption scores, me3n knowledge scores and mean attitude
scores of the tribes living in more developed and less developed areas. It is also
found that among the individual tribes, Adiyans had high adoption, high level of
knowledge and more favourable attitude towards modern practices whereas Paniyans
had low adoption, low level of knowledge and less favourable attitude towards
modern practices.
