Copyright form
Authors will be asked to transfer copyright of the article to the Publisher (or grant the Publisher exclusive publication and dissemination rights). This will ensure the widest possible protection and dissemination of information under copyright laws.
Proof reading
The purpose of the proof is to check for typesetting or conversion errors and the completeness and accuracy of the text, tables and figures. Substantial changes in content, e.g., new results, corrected values, title and authorship, are not allowed without the approval of the Editor. After online publication, further changes can only be made in the form of an Erratum, which will be hyperlinked to the article.
Ethical Guidelines for the author
• Authors should adhere to publication requirements that submitted work is original and has not been published elsewhere in any language. Work should not be submitted concurrently to more than one publication unless the editors have agreed to co-publication. If articles are co-published this fact should be made clear to readers.
• Copyright material (e.g. tables, figures or extensive quotations) should be reproduced only with appropriate permission and acknowledgement.
• Relevant previous work and publications, both by other researchers and the authors’ own, should be properly acknowledged and referenced.
• Data, text, figures or ideas originated by other researchers should be properly acknowledged and should not be presented as if they were the authors’ own
• All sources of research funding, including direct and indirect financial support, supply of equipment or materials, and other support (such as specialist statistical or writing assistance) should be disclosed.
• Authors should disclose the role of the research funder(s) or sponsor (if any) in the research design, execution, analysis, interpretation and reporting
• The research literature serves as a record not only of what has been discovered but also of who made the discovery. The authorship of research publications should therefore accurately reflect individuals’ contributions to the work and its reporting.
• In cases where major contributors are listed as authors while those who made less substantial, or purely technical, contributions to the research or to the publication are listed in an acknowledgement section, the criteria for authorship and acknowledgement should be agreed at the start of the project.
• Researchers should ensure that only those individuals who meet authorship criteria (i.e. made a substantial contribution to the work) are rewarded with authorship and that deserving authors are not omitted. Institutions and journal editors should encourage practices that prevent guest, gift, and ghost authorship.
• All authors should agree to be listed and should approve the submitted and accepted versions of the publication. Any change to the author list should be approved by all authors including any who have been removed from the list. The corresponding author should act as a point of contact between the editor and the other authors and should keep co-authors informed and involve them in major decisions about the publication (e.g. responding to reviewers’ comments).
• Authors should work with the editor or publisher to correct their work promptly if errors or omissions are discovered after publication.
• Authors should abide by relevant conventions, requirements, and regulations to make materials, reagents, software or datasets available to other researchers who request them. Researchers, institutions, and funders should have clear policies for handling such requests. Authors must also follow relevant journal standards. While proper acknowledgement is expected, researchers should not demand authorship as a condition for sharing materials.
• Authors should follow publishers’ requirements that work is not submitted to more than one publication for consideration at the same time.
• Authors should inform the editor if they withdraw their work from review, or choose not to respond to reviewer comments after receiving a conditional acceptance.
• Authors should respond to reviewers’ comments in a professional and timely manner.
• Appropriate approval, licensing or registration should be obtained before the research begins and details should be provided in the report (e.g. Institutional Review Board, Research Ethics Committee approval, national licensing authorities for the use of animals).
• If requested by editors, authors should supply evidence that reported research received the appropriate approval and was carried out ethically (e.g. copies of approvals, licences, participant consent forms).
• Researchers should not generally publish or share identifiable individual data collected in the course of research without specific consent from the individual (or their representative). Researchers should remember that many scholarly journals are now freely available on the internet, and should therefore be mindful of the risk of causing danger or upset to unintended readers (e.g. research participants or their families who recognise themselves from case studies, descriptions, images or pedigrees).
• The appropriate statistical analyses should be determined at the start of the study and a data analysis plan for the prespecified outcomes should be prepared and followed.
• Researchers should publish all meaningful research results that might contribute to understanding. In particular, there is an ethical responsibility to publish the findings of all clinical trials. The publication of unsuccessful studies or experiments that reject a hypothesis may help prevent others from wasting time and resources on similar projects. If findings from small studies and those that fail to reach statistically significant results can be combined to produce more useful information (e.g. by meta-analysis) then such findings should be published.
• Authors should supply research protocols to journal editors if requested (e.g. for clinical trials) so that reviewers and editors can compare the research report to the protocol to check that it was carried out as planned and that no relevant details have been omitted. Researchers should follow relevant requirements for clinical trial registration and should include the trial registration number in all publications arising from the trial.

PMKVY is on generating job possibilities and entrepreneurship especially grey collar (knowledge workers), pink collar (waiters, retail clerks, salespersons) and rust belt workers (construction) besides white and blue collars. Training is effort initiated by an organization to foster learning among its workers, and development is effort that is oriented more towards broadening an individual's skills for the future responsibility. It provides a systematic improvement of knowledge and skills which in turn helps the trainees to function effectively and efficiently in their given task on completion of the training. The study was conducted in Hisar district in Haryana state purposively. A total of 120 respondents were selected from four training centres, i.e., 30 respondents from each training centre. Satisfaction of trainees in terms of subject matter, physical facility and quality of the trainer towards trainings was measured. The constraints faced by the respondents were observed. Results showed that majority of the respondents were satisfied with coverage of subject matter, methodology used, working environment, usefulness of training material whereas, practical sessions of the training programme were reported to be somewhat satisfactory. Further, it was also found that the economic constraints were perceived as major constraint followed by marketing, and technical constraints for all the beauty culture trainings. Page: 326-330

Haryana2) In the present scenario of society the adolescents are facing many kinds of problems. Aggression is physical or verbal behavior that is intended to hurt someone. Aggression is commonly defined as behavior intended to harm another person and this harm can be either physical or psychological. Hardiness is a kind of ability to tolerate the things in unfavorable circumstances. The adolescents who have hardiness trait can manage their aggression. By keeping all these views in mind the present research was conducted on school going adolescents. This study was conducted on 100 male and 100 female adolescents. The results were analyzed by using different statistical tools. The results depicted that boys and girls (adoloscents) have same level of aggression and hardiness. Their views are not different on these variables. Hardiness and aggression are not related with each other. Page: 331-333

For centuries, clothing has been used to signify gender roles in many societies. Clothing styles, colours, and materials have been associated with certain genders, and these associations have changed over time. For example, traditionally, women's clothing was more colourful and decorated, while men's clothing was more utilitarian. Today, both genders are free to express themselves through clothing in ways that were not possible in the past. However, clothing is still often used to signify gender roles, with men's clothing typically being more structured and women's clothing more fluid. Moreover, clothing is also used to convey social status and power, with some clothing items being deemed “appropriate” for certain genders. Ultimately, clothing is a tool to express identity, and the ways in which it is used to signify gender roles and identities can be complex and ever-changing. Religious clothing has been a part of most cultures and societies throughout history. Wearing religious clothing is an outward sign of devotion to a certain faith or belief system. It is also often a symbol of commitment to a certain religious community. Page: 334-335

Humanity is empowered when women are empowered. Gender equality was a specific goal outlined in the Millennium Development Goals. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), which replaced them and were adopted in 2015, set goals for the global community over the following 15 years. These global objectives have a strong emphasis on including women and gender in every goal, from "Zero Hunger" and "No Poverty" to "Quality Education," and have one target that is especially geared toward women. A very fundamental indication of women's equality and empowerment is education. Relevant indicators include literacy levels among women, gender disparities in literacy, and enrollment and dropout rates in elementary schools. Women contribute to the labour force and the household through their work. While some of this labour is acknowledged and rewarded, the majority is not listed and is still unpaid. The current study was designed to reflect three various economic strata in Hisar, Haryana, through urban areas. From each strata data was collected from 60 respondents. This paper revealed that overall Chi- square value was found significant thus indicating that both level of education and economic participation was associated with gender and in both high as well as medium ES households, more females opted for arts (39.7% & 31.6%, respectively) compared to males (33.3% & 30.0 % respectively). More males were working as labour (19.8%), compared to females (10.0%), while more females were non-working (40.7%) compared to males (14.2%). On an overall basis, this study showed a difference in educational and financial status of male and female in various economic strata (ES). Page: 336-342

Schools are an important platform in terms of their crucial role in the spheres of cognitive, language, emotional, social, and moral development of a child. However, the role of schools in the emergence of emotional and behavioral problems has generally been overlooked. There is a growing recognition that schools may play a significant role in producing psychopathology, especially due to the formative influence of schools on normal as well as pathological development in children. Therefore, it becomes imperative to view the school system from the perspectives of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention with reference to child mental health. The present paper highlights on the role of school in child and adolescent mental health. Page: 343-345

Overweight and obesity are ranked as the fifth leading cause of death worldwide. Around 38% of people worldwide who are five years of age and older are predicted to be overweight or obese in 2020. This percentage is projected to rise to 51% by the year 2035. Additionally, it is expected that the economic costs of being overweight and obese would rise from 1.96 trillion US dollars in 2020 to 4.32 trillion US dollars in 2035. In a 2022 study of people from 34 different countries, obesity came in fifth when it came to the top health issues confronting their nation, trailing COVID-19, mental health, cancer, and stress. For general health and longevity, it is imperative to maintain a healthy body weight. Regular exercise and a balanced eating regimen can maintain your body as young-looking as possible as you age.

These are human emotions generally people have above emotion in daily life or day to day activity. At that time our reactions to stressor like the hassles and hurdles of life. We can feel this way at the times when we are in a relation like love or any kind of relationship. As per symptoms of depression it is easily diagnose because the symptoms may be familiar. Most of the times it is difficult to identify the signs and symptoms of depression from other emotion like the bad mood, and the person have negative attitude that most people or youth experience at some point. National Crime Records Bureau published in 2009 reports there are 15 people committed suicide in the country every hour. As per the study of World Health Organization due to the depression, people commit suicide, depression will be second-most prevalent medical condition in the world for suicide. Usage of Beck Depression Inventory suggests that Group A subjects are suffering from depression and their current severity level falls among mild to severe depression. The Youth Self Report scores them social, occupational, academics along with presence of any psychological problem. It consists of 112 questions based of daily life interaction with the environment. It assesses one's active response to all domains of living and the use is to find out if there are any impairments. Page: 231-237

Page: 160-163 Parminder Parmar (HDFS, Pennsylvania State University, Dunmore PA) IPARTheory (previously known as PARTheory) has moved further than looking at parental acceptance and its' effect on the psychological adjustment of Human beings. The step ahead is to provide evidence how interpersonal acceptance and rejection by significant others in our life affect our development and relationships everywhere in the world regardless of differences in gender, SES, age, race, ethnicity, culture, or any other defining conditions. The research provides a compelling evidence for positive outcomes of acceptance as opposed to rejection (Rohner & Veneziano, 2001; Khaleque & Rohner, 2002; Khaleque & Rohner, 2011; Erkman, Carrasco, & Rohner, 2013; Parmar, 2011; & Rohner, 2014). This research investigates for the first time to look at the relationship of Grand Parent's acceptance in addition to parents and its impact on psychological adjustment in Emerging adulthood. The results are discussed in relation to the gender, age, and culture of the respondents. Page: 160-163
