Socio-personal, communicational-situational, economic and psychological variables were independent variables to study the attitude (dependent variable) of girl students. Different empirical measures and structured schedule were used to know the variables of the study. Scale developed by Heatherton and Polivy [1] for assessment of level of confidence and scale adopted by Ajit [2] and further, used by Hallar (1963) were applied for reckoning the occupational aspirations. Results of the study indicate that majority (77.70%) of the respondents was under 22 years having OGPA between 7.00 to 8.00.

Data also reveals that nearly one third (33.81%) of the students belonged to high family income group whereas, 23.74 per cent belonged to low and 42.45 per cent belonged to medium family income group. Most of them (74.10%) were from OBC, SC/ST categories and nearly two-third of them (63.31%) had medium to very high participation in extra-curricular activities. Majority (64.75%) was from rural background and 54.68% of the respondents used to visit the library either twice or once in a week.
