Abstract
This study identifies the differences in the level of Worry based on Gender among second year B. Tech. students in Engineering College. PSWQ was the instrument used to collect data from 500 B. Tech second year students. Students chosen through random sampling from Engineering college in Ghaziabad, India. To determine gender differences among the respondent's independent samples t-test was used via SPSS version 20. The result of research showed that male and female respondents differed significantly in their level of worry perceived. Worry or anxiety disorders often go unrecognized and untreated in India, which puts the students at risk for developing additional difficulties such as academic failure, depression, substance abuse and more often suicidal attempts or suicide.The present study identifies the level of Worry with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in a sample of 500 engineering students using PSWQ (Penn State Worry Questionnaire). Along with the study some useful suggestive measure or remedies for reduction of worry will be discussed.
