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.

Pages: 473-476 Rituparna Basak (Department of Psychology, Muralidhar Girls College, Kolkata, West Bengal) The purpose of this study is to explore the patterns of relationship between different career stages and different dimensions of school environment in different school teachers selected from different school of Kolkata. Huberman, (1989) proposed the theory of career stage model which describes teachers' professional work at different stages. 300 data were obtained from the school teachers of Kolkata. Career Stage Scale developed by McCormick, and Barnett (2008) and Revised School-Level Environment Questionnaire developed by Johnson, Stevens and Zvoch (2007) have been used in this study. Findings revealed that collaboration, student relations, school resources, decision making and instructional innovation are significantly and positively correlated with most of the career stages. Stepwise regression analysis indicated that all the career stages were significantly predicted by different dimensions of school environment. This study highlighted that teachers on different career stages are often characterized as having more positive relation with colleagues and students, interested in experimentations in the schools and older and experienced teachers actively take part in the decisions of schools than other teachers.

Pages: 469-472 Ambika Sangwan (Department of Commerce, M.D. University, Rohtak, Haryana) The Indian economy showed resilient behaviour during recent global recessionary conditions and has emerged as one of the fastest growing economies in the world. The salient feature of India's recent growth has been the dynamism of the service sector, while the manufacturing sector has been comparatively less robust. The manufacturing sector of Indian economy still lags behind in comparison to some developed and developing nations. There are certain bottlenecks in the Indian economy which the Government needs to address towards making India a global manufacturing hub. Government of India takes valuable initiatives to tackle these bottlenecks like 'Make in India. The present research paper aims to study the status of manufacturing sector in Indian economy, recognize the key challenges faced by manufacturing sector of India in the course of development process. The paper also throws light on the 'Make in India' initiative of Government of India which is launched to promote the development and competitiveness of the Indian manufacturing sector.

Pages: 462-468 Shadma Absar (National University of Educational Planning and Administration, New Delhi) Teacher is the central actor to tackle quality issue in the school education system (Govinda, 2016). They are considered as a crucial key to educational change and school improvement, they develop, define and interpret the curriculum. Teachers behaviour and student learning are intrinsically interlinked and to a large extent their beliefs, and attitudes influences the kind of classroom interaction and learning that young students experience (Khetrapal, 2003).The present study aimed at studying teachers' organizational commitment and job satisfaction in the two government funded school systems i.e. the central government schools and state government schools. Data was collected from 240 teachers of central and state government schools in Delhi. Teachers organizational commitment and job satisfaction were studied using standardized rating scales. Data was analyzed quantitatively using 2X2 factorial design. Findings of the study revealed that teachers of the two school managements differ in their organizational commitment. Job satisfaction of teachers was also found to differ significantly across the two school managements, their designation (PGT/TGT) and gender categories. Pages: 462-468

Pages: 457-461 Rohtash Singh (Department of Psychology, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra Haryana ) Muni Ram (Assistant Employment Officer Govt. of Haryana, Brara Ambala) Occupational stress is a growing global concern which has increased dramatically during the past few decades. The deleterious effects of occupational stress are not only one of the leading concerns for individual as well as organization, but also one of the most costly occupational health issues. To deal with occupational stress personality may affect coping strategy selection directly or indirectly by constraining use of specific strategies, or by influencing the nature and severity of stressors experienced. The influence of personality on the frequency, intensity, and nature of stressors experienced may partially explain relations between personality and coping. Research shows that personality traits influence the selection of coping strategy. The present study is designed to examine the relationship among the study measures and to examine the moderating effect of personality on coping and occupational stress relationship. The sample includes 72 police personnel drawn from Kurukshetra and Hisar district of Haryana. The participants were assessed with NEO-FFI, Occupational Stress Index and Ways of Coping Questionnaire. Results showed that neuroticism and extraversion was found to be correlated more strongly with some ways of coping than other dimensions of big-five factors model of personality. Neuroticism was found to be associated positively with occupational stress. Extraversion, openness and conscientiousness were found to be correlated negatively with occupational stress. Occupational stress was found to have negatively significant relationship with positive reappraisal way of coping. The moderated regression analysis showed that coping moderates substantially the relationship between personality and occupational stress. Pages: 457-461

Law College, Hisar, Haryana) Right to privacy has not been defined under the constitutional provisions as the fundamental right but the Apex Court has given wider interpretation to Article 21 of the Indian Constitution to include the Right of Privacy as the integral part of right to life and personal liberty. The right to privacy is derived from the English common law which states that “Every man house is his castle”. It guaranteed the person from any kind of the unwanted interference in his life by public in which the public is not necessarily concept of right of privacy in India and ever growing need to maintain and preserve the privacy of the persons.

College of Education, Bhiwani, Haryana) This paper has been designed to test achievement in English for XI class students. Different steps followed to develop the achievement test were Planning, Preparation, Pre try-out, Try-out, Scoring, Item analysis (difficulty & item discrimination) and Final form of the test. Initially, an objective type achievement test including 200 multiple choice items and fill in the blanks was administered for try-out to 200 students selected randomly from different senior secondary schools in District Rohtak. Final selection of the items was made on the basis of difficulty value and discrimination index of each item. The investigators selected most of the items of medium difficulty and a few of higher and lower difficulty values were also included. Ebel's (1979) criteria and guidelines were used for categorizing discriminating indices. Split-half method was used for estimation of reliability and 0.90 was found as the calculated value of Reliability coefficient. The test was also validated against the criterion of content validity. It was reported that most of the items were falling in acceptable range of difficulty and discrimination level; however some items were rejected due to their poor discrimination index. In this way, 100 items were selected for final test. The scoring key for the final test was also prepared. The time limit for the final test was one hour. Pages: 449-453

Pages: 425-431 Sarita Sood and Divya Puri (P. G. Department of Psychology, University of Jammu, Jammu, J&K) Person job fit model proposes selection of suitable individual which contributes toward positive organizational outcomes. The organizational commitment is a job attitude which cannot be measured during the selection process. However, its antecedents can be ascertained and may become basis for employee selection. Among several possible predictors personality could be worth measuring while hiring an individual. The personality traits are relatively stable and are linked with desirable organizational outcomes. Therefore, his study intends to explore the relationship between personality traits and organizational commitment using Big Five Inventory and Organizational Commitment Scale. Purposive sampling was employed and data were collected from 100 nationalized bank employees in Jammu city (India). Pearson's product moment method and linear regression was used to carry out the statistical analysis of the data. Positive and significant relationship has been found between extraversion and affective commitment; agreeableness and normative commitment; openness to experience and normative commitment. Negative but significant relationship between conscientiousness and continuance commitment emerged in this study. Extraversion and agreeableness are found to predict affective and normative commitment respectively. The findings have implications for human resource management. Pages: 425-431
