Abstract

The objective of the present research study was to examine the relationship of self-concept of secondary school students with their need pattern. On the basis of the five kinds of needs, five null-hypotheses were formulated. It was a descriptive research. The sample of this research included 150 students of secondary schools of Dehradun. These students had been selected using multistage random sampling method from 3 government and 3 private secondary schools. Two research instruments i.e. Self-Concept Inventory of Dr. Beena Shah and Need Pattern Scale of Dr. Seema Sanghi were used to collect data. Pearson coefficient of correlation was computed in this research. The findings revealed a significant and negative relationship of self-concept of the students with their need of security. But no significant relationship was observed between self-concept of the secondary school students with their need of aggression. A significant and positive relationship was found between self-concept of these students with their need of achievement. Similar findings were obtained in the case of need of power and need of affiliation.
