Abstract :

An attempt is made in the present investigation to study the mental health among adolescents. The sample con- sisted of 240 male and female adolescents from urban and rural localities hailing from joint and nuclear family constituted the sample of the study. Type of family, gender and locality are the independent variables and mental health is dependent var- iable. Mental health of the sample was assessed by using Jagadish and Srivastava (1983). Since there are three independent variables and each varied into two ways, a 2x2x2 factorial design was employed. The obtained data are quantitatively analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The results reveal that adolescents from nuclear family have better mental health than adolescents from joint family, female ado- lescents have better mental health than the male adolescents, urban adolescents have better mental health than rural adolescents.
