A Study of Academic Achievement of Adolescents in relation to Parental Encouragement (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781926488011)

The term adolescence has a broader meaning these days than it had in early years. The adolescent's task is not simply to interact with the external environment or with other individuals but also to develop its own potentialities. They try to expose their role in the world in which they live. It is a stage of new experiences, responsibilities and new relationships with adults as well as peers, which influence his personality, his ability to emerge out of conflicting situations and his futuristic patterns of life. Psychologically adolescence is a marginal situation, which involves psychological disturbances and problems of adjustment. It differentiates the childhood behavior from adulthood behavior. This period of adolescence, in general, offers an individual a large variety of new experiences and at same time usually finds him less prepared to meet challenges than at any other stage. It has been called a period of stress and strain, storm and strife as all capacities physiological as well as psychological are reaching at a peak.
