摘要：Parents play an important role in all round development of the child. Parental encouragement plays a major role in determining the attitude, behaviour and self-image of the child. Adolescence is a period of dramatic change. Parental support and encouragement is critical in adolescence as anxiety and resulting problems related to adolescence may lead to depressed mood, lowered self esteem and impaired family and peer relationships. 200 students (100 rural and 100 urban) of 14-16 year (class 9th and 10th grade) from Government schools of Kurukshetra District of Haryana were included in sample. Parental Encouragement scale (PES) developed by Dr. R.R.Sharma was used to collect the data. t-test and ANOVA was used to analyse the data. Findings indicated that high school students do not differ significantly in getting parental encouragement in terms of locality, caste and parental income.
