Reading is a very good habit that every child needs to develop in order to grow mentally, psychologically and emotionally. Choice of books with proper content benefits the readers in increasing their knowledge, exploration of new ideas and definitely in making the person smarter.The present study aimed at knowing and assessing the reading habits of the teenagersof Jorhat, Assam. The sample consisted of 100 students (50 girls and 50 boys) studying in 8th and 9th standard ranging in age from 14 to 16 years. For the purpose of the study a questionnaire was prepared in order to assess the reading habits of the students and statistical analysis of Z value were calculated to determine the gender differences in preference for book according to various attributes. It was found that although most of therespondents (82%) do not have a habit of regular reading of daily newspapers and magazines, yet some of the respondents (15%) practice it regularly. Eighty per cent of the students responded positively that their reading habits have increased their knowledge remarkably. In Statistically analysis calculated Z value were found higher than table value in case of selection of book by author and type.So gender differences were foundin case of selection of book by author and type and there was no gender difference in selection of book by content and appearance. Attributes considered in this study were selection of book by author,content, appearance and type of book such as science fiction, historical,biography and auto biography.

The sample consisted of 433 undergraduate students from various colleges in Pune city studying non-professional courses. There were 245 females and 188 males. Instruments used for this study were Psychological Well-Being scale by Carol Ryff and College Classroom Environment Scales by Winston, et al. Significant correlations were found between overall psychological well-being and all the dimensions of classroom environment.

Doesn’t it sound a bit awkward because it’s always considered a man’s field.Present study was conducted in Hisar district of Haryana state in randomly selected two blocks. Total 180 rural households (i.e. 60 from each small, medium and large land holding category) were taken as sample for present study.The large numbers of females were illiterate in all land holding category. In the small land holding male (1.3%) and female (0.8%) whereas medium and large land holding category fewer higher percentage of male and female post graduate. Only male members (10.0%) were dropout before primary. The reasons of dropoutwas lack of resources male (30.0%) female (8.3%). More numbers of female enrolled in art in small and medium land holding category. Whereas in large land holding category female (29.4%) enrolled in non medical and technical education.
