Pages: 93-97 K. N. Jayakumar and S. Kadhiravan (Department of Psychology, Periyar University, Salem, Tamil Nadu) Job-insecurity has increased markedly in the developed economies of the world and the effects of it on the individual employee and on organizational outcomes however are controversial. Reviews have suggested that job-insecurity could have both positive as well as negative impact on the performance and hardly there is any literature on citizenship as well as self-regulated behaviour. This research investigated the prevalence of organizational citizenship behaviour and self-regulated behaviour among the software executives at a time of perceived job-insecurity. 73(N) executives responded to the survey, the analysis of data showed that organizational citizenship, self-regulated behaviour was prevalent, and both shared a significant correlation. Age, experience, and self-regulated behavior significantly differentiated organizational citizenship behaviour. The study concludes by highlighting that job-insecurity need not always have a detrimental effect on performance and organizational citizenship behaviour along with self-regulated behaviour could serve as a key to the sustenance in the job.

Pages: 89-90 Anand Kumar (Singhania University, Singhania, Rajasthan) The present paper attempts to review the status of women in Hindu law. In the early Hindu society the status of women was an enviable one. They could avail of the highest learning and there were many seers and philosophers among them. Ghosha, Apala, Lopamudra, Vishwvara, Surya, Indrani, Yami, Romasha - all these names highlight the position and the esteem which Hindu women enjoyed in the Vedic period. At that time there was not a single area where women did not take part or excel their counterpart's - men.Hindu Society has a flexible social structure. The social System of Hindus is based on Vedic and sastric ideology. The wife in Vedic literature occupies the position of 'ardhangini'. It suggests that there was equality between men and women in the Vedic period. But in the later periods after the invasion of foreigners and mixing of the exterior ideas women were given the inferior position. Pages: 89-90

Pages: 82-84 Archana (Department of Psychology, Singhania University, Singhania, Rajasthan) Dyslexia is characterized by an unexpected difficulty in reading in children and adults who otherwise possess the intelligence, motivation and schooling considered necessary for accurate and fluent reading. Recent epidemiologic data indicate that like hypertension and obesity, dyslexia fits a dimensional model. In other words, with in the population, reading ability and reading disability occur along a continuum, with reading disability representing the lower tail of a normal distribution of reading ability. Phonological dyslexia is an acquired reading disorder characterized by a severe impairment in reading nonwords, with otherwise normal (or near normal) reading of words (Sartori et al., 1984). The present paper reviews phonological deficit hypothesis in dyslexia. Pages: 82-84

Home Science College, Chandigarh) Chitra Dhiman (Department of Psychology, Netaji Subash National Institute of Sports, Patiala) Deepika Sangwan (Department of Psychology, Panjab University, Chandigarh) Ravinder Yadav (Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Chandigarh) The work environment is complex constructs in the organizations consisting of different perceptions, attitude, value, and beliefs which play a significant role in moderating the relationship between work stress and job satisfaction. The major objective of study was to study occupational stress with respect to age and job satisfaction. The sample of 120 (N = 120), 60 male and 60 female physicians of the government hospitals, was randomly selected from the government hospitals in Chandigarh. Occupational Stress Index (Srivastava and Singh, 1981) was used to measure the level of job stress and Job Satisfaction Inventory (Singh and Sharma, 1999) was used to measure the attitude of the physicians towards their job (job satisfaction). Three levels of age (24-29, 30-35, & 36-41) and three levels of job satisfaction (Low satisfaction, moderate satisfaction, & high satisfaction) were taken to see if they differ on occupational stress. Two way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was applied to analyze the data. The findings explored that younger age group had significantly higher level of job stress as compared to the elder age medical professionals. Moreover, highly satisfied participants had revealed significantly lower job stress than low satisfied participants. Pages: 79-81

Pages: 74-78 Navreet (Panjab University, Chandigarh) The primary objective of the study was to examine the gender differences on the three social motives viz., Achievement (n Ach), Power (n Pow), and Affiliation (n Aff). The total sample consisted of 200 urban adolescent boys (n = 100, M age = 13.77, SD = .132) and girls (n = 100, M age = 13.84, SD = .123). The age range of the subjects, who were drawn from five coeducational schools of Chandigarh city, was 13 15 years. The Adapted TAT (after McClelland et al., 1953) was used for the measurement of the three needs. It consisted of 6 pictures which served as stimulus cues for eliciting stories from the subjects. The TAT protocols obtained were scored by the method of content analysis. The data were then subjected to t tests. Results obtained revealed that female adolescents were significantly higher than male adolescents on intrinsic achievement motivation, fear of success, fear of failure, and need for achievement. Male adolescents were significantly higher than their female counterparts on need for affiliation. The male group also scored significantly higher on hope of power whereas the female group was found to be significantly higher on fear of power. Results are discussed in terms of child rearing practices and changing gender roles. The findings areof particular relevance to Educational and Developmental Psychology. Pages: 74-78

Pages: 69-73 Jagbir Singh Boora (Singhania University, Singhania ) Baljit Singh (Govt. College, Hisar) The aim of study was to evaluate effectiveness of UGC Xth plan scheme of adventure sports among universities and colleges of India. An evaluative survey was conducted on a sample of 1959 subjects, selected on purposive sampling basis from universities and colleges of India. It was found that only 138 universities and colleges of 18 states and 3 UTs organized adventure sports activities for their students during UGC Xth plan period of adventure sports. Results of study further shows that in total 1932 men and women students from Indian universities and colleges participated in adventure sports activities during UGC Xth plan scheme period of adventure sports. Conclusion of various government and non government organizations surveys shows that there were 5762 universities and colleges in India recognized under 2(b) and 12(f) of 1956 UGC act excluding medical, agriculture and private universities and colleges during scheme period. Out of 1932 participants 1624 were male and 308 were female where as findings of study shows that 11867095 male/female students were enrolled with above 5/62 institutions during time period of UGC Xth plan scheme of adventure sports. Results of study concluded that organization level was 2.40 percent and participation level was 0.01 percent collectively as well as respectively among universities and colleges and their students in India during UGC Xth plan scheme period of adventure sports. Introduction of scheme in mid of the Xth plan and uneven organization / participation shows lapses in implication of this well structured plan. Even organization / participation first time in such a large country like India may be encouraged. It is suggested that for overall development, harmonious development and to build up confidence of Indian youth these games must be introduced more effectively in XIth plan by UGC for youths of India.

Pages: 67-68 Archana (Department of Psychology, Singhania University, Pacheri, Rajasthan) The current study is a controlled manipulation of the main processing requirements involved in continuous versions of the task that influence dyslexic and non-dyslexic readers' naming speeds. Continuous formats are the original formats used by Denckla and Rudel (1976a, b). In this format, items are presented in a 10 x 5 matrix, and the participant is required to name the items from left to right as quickly as possible, starting with the top lefthand letter and finishing with the bottom right-hand letter. The discrete format involves individual presentation of RAN items in a constant location. It therefore represents a less complex task, in which visual processing and retrieval of only a single item is required. Using this format, it is therefore possible to remove extraneous processing requirements involved in the continuous RAN, such as visual scanning and sequencing of multiple items (Wolf, 1991, p.128). Advocates of continuous formats argue, however, that it is precisely these additional processes that make RAN a consistent predictor of reading fluency. Pages: 67-68
