Abstract

Academic stress is the product of a combination of academic related demands that exceed the adaptive resources available to an individual. If a student is unable to cope effectively with academic stress, then serious psycho-social- emotional health consequences may result (Arthur, 1998; MacGeorge, Samter, & Gillikan, 2005; Tennant, 2002). The current study examined relation in academic stress in relation to self-efficacy and mindfulness among senior secondary school students. The findings indicated that there was significant negative relation in academic stress, self-efficacy andmindfulness among boys and girls.

Abstract

Alcohol abuse has been associated with diverse indicators of social malaise and disruption. Thousands of people die each year from medical complications of alcoholism such as, cirrhosis of the liver, heart disease and other medical conditions. Many pedestrian and driver fatalities on the roads are associated with excessive drinking. A significant number of murders and suicides are associated with alcoholism (Gangrade & Gupta, 1981). About one third of A mission to psychiatric unit in general hospitals represent alcoholism and drug abuse and substantial numbers of alcoholics ,are seen in psychiatric outpatient clinics. The problems are, therefore, enormous and only in recent years has there been any major effort to deal with alcoholism as disease rather than with numerous consequences. The present paper attempts to review physical complications associated with alcoholism.

Abstract

People in the India who are more than sixty years of age are commonly referred to as senior citizens or seniors. These terms refer to people whose stage in life is generally called old age, though there is no precise way to identify the final stage of a normal life span. People are said to be senior citizens when they reach the age of sixty or sixty-five because those are the ages at which most people retire from the workforce. The current paper reviews issues and challenges faced by senior citizens in India.
