ABSTRACT

The objective of the present study was to compare the personal values between extrovert rural and extrovert urban females. PVQ is taken as a set of dependent variable whereas extrovert traits of personality and rural and urban fields are taken as set of independent variables. It was hypothesized that females of urban and rural area will differ on their mean for value pattern. This assumption is based on findings of Bhatia et al. (2007) and Devi and Vig. (2014). A sample of 360 females from urban area and females of similar number from rural area were selected with the help of random sampling technique. Results indicate that urban females (extrovert) do not believe in social inequality, however, rural adolescents gave more value to family prestige than urban adolescents. Rural adolescents believed in maintenance of purity of family blood by avoiding inter-caste marriages.
