The objective of this study was to examine how attributional style is related to level of academic achievement, which is evidenced by students' performance in exam in an educational institution. The data were collected from 136 students randomly selected from senior secondary school of AMU (both boys and girls section). The high and low achieving students were identified on the basis of percentage of marks in senior secondary certificate part-I examination. The attributional style was measured by attributional style questionnaire (ASQ) developed by Peterson, Semmel, Von Baeyer, Abramson, Metalsky and Seligman (1982) and revised by Peterson and Seligman (1984). The data were analyzed by using t-test for finding out the significance of difference between various subgroups. Significant differences in attributional style were obtained between high and low achieving student.Keywords

Sleep, a complex biologic process controlled by the nervous system and is important for proper cognitive, immune and metabolic function. As the aging occurs, it leads to changes in sleep, and the prevalence of sleep disorders increases with age, having a negative impact on the quality of life and well being in older adults.The present study was aimed to examine the effect of sleep disorder on self efficacy of adults. The sample consisted of 240 patients, 120 sleep disorder and 120 non-sleep disorder patients. Test of sleep disorder screening questionnaire by Emory Health Care Centre and Academic Medical College Atlanta, Georgia and self efficacy by Pareek (1988) were used. For analysis of data Mean, SD and t test were used. Results revealed that patients with sleep disorder have poor self efficacy in comparison to normal adults. Patients with Insomnia sleep disorder have better self efficacy in comparison to other types of sleep disorder patients.Keywords
