ABSTRACT
An empirical study was planned to see the level of Alienation among different school-going adolescents. A sample of 320 school-going boy and girl adolescents from 10th to 12th classes was drawn from Nagpur city, Maharashtra given 15 to 20 years of age. According to our research plan, 264 boy and girl adolescents were finally selected from their information sheet. Therefore, boy and girl adolescents were distributed in four groups in aspect of their age groups. Then 66 adolescents were taken from each group and applied the Alienation Scale on them. The obtained scores on the Alienation scale were analysed using ANOVA and t-test to examine the significant differences among different age groups of boy and girl adolescents. In our final analysis, boy adolescents were more alienated than girl adolescents. Moreover, increasing age, familial structure, and social and educational circumstances of school-going adolescents were more responsible for alienation.
