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.

PG College for woman, Bhodia Khera, Fatehabad, Haryana) A worker attitude towards work is directly linked to the job satisfaction; a worker who is satisfied with his job performs better and excels at what he does. A study (Harvard University) found that when a person gets a job or a promotion, 85% of the time it is because of attitude, and only 15% of the time because of intelligence and knowledge of specific facts and figures. Employees attitude are vital to organization, because when attitudes are positive they are reason for success of organization and when negative, they are both a symptom of underlying problem and a contributing cause of forthcoming difficulties in an organization. Decaling attitude may result in strike, low performance, poor product quality and shabby customer, work slowdowns, absences and employees turnover. Pages: 145-149

Pages: 134-137 Samira Syal (Teach for India Fellow, Chennai) D. Barani Ganth (Department of Applied Psychology, Pondicherry University, Pondicherry) This study was done keeping in mind the high prevalence of turnover in organisations in the service sector. Explanations as to why people engage in frequent shifts in their career and whether psychological contract theory could explain the high prevalence rate of attrition was aimed for in the study. This study aimed at determining the relationship between psychological contract and organisational climate and work experience within the organisation. The study involved a sample of 70 individuals all employed in different organisation belonging to the service sector. The participants were asked to fill Psychological Contract Inventory (Rousseau, 2000) and Perceived Organisational Climate (Singh, 1986). It was found that psychological contract is significantly related to the perception of organisational climate and the experience within the organisation. It was also found that psychological contract significantly predicts the perception of organisational climate. In addition the relational psychological contract is the major contributor to perceived organisational climate. When the predominant contract types were ascertained, it was found that a predominant relational contract is significantly related to perceived organisational climate. Pages: 134-137

Pages: 130-133 Shaigan Amin and Khushgeet Kaur (Department of Education & Community Service, Punjabi University, Patiala ) The study focused on exploring internet addiction among university students and its relation to academic performance. The data were collected from 210 Punjabi University, Patiala students through Young's Internet Addiction Test (IAT). The results of correlation analysis revealed negative relationship between internet addiction and academic performance of university students, though not significantly so. The result of the study revealed significant gender differences in internet addiction among university students. Further, male university students were found to be significantly more addicted to the use of internet than their female counterparts. On the contrary, no significant differences were found in internet addiction among university students in relation to locale and subject stream. Internet addiction was found to have a significant negative impact on academic performance of adolescents. Further, perceived behaviour control emerged as the most significant predictor of academic performance of the university students. These results of the study have implications for counsellors, teachers and parents. Pages: 130-133

Pages: 126-129 Krishna Prasad Gogoi (Department of Education, Dibrugarh University, Assam) This study aims to investigate the relationships that exist among academic achievement motivation with 3 relevant factors Gender, Socio- Economic Status and Family Relationship Pattern. The study was carried out on 100 randomly sampled high school students (Boys=50; Girls=50) of government schools of Dibrugarh, Assam. It was hypothesized that 1) there is a difference between student's gender and academic achievement motivation 2) there is a difference between students' Socio-Economic Status and academic achievement motivation 3) there is a correlation between the students' family relationship pattern and their academic achievement motivation. Academic Achievement Motivation Test by Dr. T.R Sharma was used to study the level of motivation in the sample. Their socio-economic status was decided by employing the Socio- Economic Status Scale by Bharadwaj. The Family Relationship Inventory by Dr. (Mrs.) G.P. Sherry and Dr. J.C Sinha was used to study the pattern of interactions that existed between the parents and the sample. The result indicated moderate differences in students' gender and their academic achievement motivation. Academic Achievement Motivation varied moderately with the students' socio-economic status. Though a positive correlation existed between upper and middle socio-economic status and high academic achievement motivation, low socio-economic status did not indicate significantly low academic achievement motivation. Significant positive correlations (low to moderate) were seen between parental acceptance and student's academic achievement motivation whereas for concentration no significant correlation was noted. A negative correlation was noted between parental avoidance and academic achievement motivation Pages: 126-129

Pages: 117-121 K. Kumar (Center for Improving Relationship and Personal Effectiveness, Puducherry) S. Kadhiravan (Department of Psychology, Periyar University, Salem, Tamilnadu) The educational institutions, parents, and students themselves are very much concerned about their academic performance. High academic demand may have serious negative consequences. Some students find it more difficult to cope with such demand than others do, which leads to unpleasant consequences such as dropout, even suicide etc. A number of studies and laboratory experiments have confirmed that when stress exceeds individuals' optimum level, performance decreases. The ways students appraise their situation is important and are prime target in prevention and intervention of stress related problems. The researchers have developed a scale based on Lazarus cognitive appraisal theory. Modified inverted U shape model was used to explain the concept of relationship between stress and performance. The scale consist of 48 items using 4 point scale ranging from 'not at all true to exactly true' yielding 4 score labeled as threat/avoidance, challenge, confusion, and withdrawal. The items are further classified and scored as personal, interpersonal and work/task yielding students' specific difficulties. In study- 1, developed scale was administered to 158 under graduate students from three arts and science colleges of Puducherry. After a month's interval the same scale was administered to the same students. The test, re-test result revealed that the scale possessed adequate reliability. In study-2, along with the developed scale, widely used perceived stress scale, life orientation scale and coping self-efficacy scale were administered to 146 under graduate students from four arts and science colleges of Puducherry. The result revealed that the developed scale possessed adequate validity. Details and implications are presented in this paper. Pages: 117-121

Pages: 103-107 Subrata Chatterjee (Department of Sociology, Khejuri College, Baratala, Purba Medinipur, W.B ) Manashi Apartment (56/131, Rabindra Sarani, Durganagar Rabindra Nagar, Kolkata, W.B.) For the last few years the subject 'Women Empowerment' is a matter of serious discussion. Ethically women as members of society should have their equal role. But throughout the world women occupy an inferior status rather than their male counter-parts. Efforts have been taken to empower women by launching various schemes and providing extra benefits for them. But in-spite of considerable improvement in the status of women, they still comprise the largest section of deprived population. Lack of capital is a serious constraint to the development of women, particularly in rural areas, who find little or no access to credit. Credit can help women to take up farm-allied activities or small enterprises and enabling them to respond to the opportunities created by the process of economic development. In this situation micro-credit is emerging as a powerful instrument for overall development of rural women. In India, micro-credit is dominated by Self-Help Groups- (SHGs) bank linkage programme, aimed at providing a cost effective mechanism for providing financial services to the poor women. Thus the effective organisation of SHGs is a significant instrument in the process of economic empowerment of women. In this study I have tried to find out the role of Self-Help Groups towards the economic empowerment of women in Khejuri (Coastal Bay of Bengal), Purba Medinipur, W.B. In Khejuri the performance of SHGs is satisfactory. The study was conducted in 11 gram panchayats of Khejuri-I and Khejuri-II blocks. For the purpose of the study 110 women SHGs were selected randomly. SHG encourages women to form voluntary association and emerge as a group of saver-cum-borrowers. In fact, any financial assistance, if utilised properly generates gainful employment opportunities. Positive sign of employment generation was found in rural economy of Khejuri. Income has a favourable effect on consumption expenditure in general and on education, health, social and familial status of members in particular. Micro Credit extended to rural women opens up the scope to empower herself in the family set-up. Pages: 103-107

Pages: 98-102 Nisha Chaudhary and N.K. Chadha (Department of Psychology, University of Delhi, Delhi) There is a notion that schools have responsibility of building the character of the children, provide them right guidance on right time and for their overall well being. Moving in this line, Indian government has made the presence of school counselors mandatory in the school premises. Indian laws and Indian government has recently laid emphasis on the importance of school counselors. Though the role of school counselors is not specified and defined, which eventually leads to juggling of work between administration, counseling, teaching etc. This study focuses on understanding the job specification and job satisfaction of school counselors in Meerut city. For the purpose of study, a semi- structured interview was being prepared and a standardized tool was been used, to get an understanding of role clarity, job description and job satisfaction of school counselors from 12 different schools of Meerut city. Pages: 98-102
