ABSTRACT
Self-esteem is one of the core aspects of human life, upon which we shape our behavior and attitude. It is primarily our evaluation about our own self. Assertiveness is the quality of an individual to be self-assured and confident without being aggressive. The present study employed an experimental pre test post test method and aims at assessing the effect of SE enhancement on assertiveness of school students of Bhopal. Coopersmith Self Esteem Scale and Assertiveness Inventory were used as tools. It was concluded that SE enhancement had a positive significant effect on the assertiveness of school children. Also, the mean assertiveness score for boys and girls did not show any significant difference.
