| dc.description.abstract | Present study was carried out with the aim to assess the existing problems of adolescents from single parent families, to compare the adolescents problems and urban single parent families and to delineate the ecological factors affecting adolescents problems. The study was carried out in randomly selected Hisar district of Haryana state. City area of the selected district was taken purposively to have urban respondents. From the selected district two villages were selected randomly. A sample of 120 adolescents (15-19 years) was drawn purposively from the selected senior secondary schools of rural and urban city areas. Data were collected personally with the help of self developed questionnaire on social, economic, emotional and family relationship problems faced by adolescents in single parent families. The results revealed that most of the adolescents were female, belonged to nuclear families and were from low income families. More than half of the respondent’s parents availed benefits of any government scheme. Most of the parents adopted authoritative parental discipline technique. Results revealed that most of the adolescents faced medium and high level of various problems. The rural respondents faced higher level of problems as compared to urban respondents. Comparative analysis of results revealed no significant difference between rural and urban respondents. It was found that female respondents faced higher level of social, emotional and family relationship problems as compared to male respondents. The microsystems variables i.e. sex, landholding, income, adolescent’s relation with grandparents and activities at school were found significantly associated with social, economic and emotional problems of adolescents. The mesosystem variables such as occupation of parents also reported significant association with economic and emotional problems of adolescents. Exosystem variables such as parent’s take benefit of any government scheme, development facilities at school and surrounding community also reported significant association with social and economic problems. The macrosystem of children also influenced their social, economic and emotional problems. | en_US |
