Psychological Profile of a Consistent Low Performer

A Case study is an intensive analysis and an individual unit (as a person or community) stressing developmental factors in relation to environment. The present is a single case study which shows the in-depth analysis of a 15 years old school going girl, who belongs to an urban background and family with upper middle class socio economic status. The major reason which engrossed the investigators to take-up this study was the case’s consistent low academic performance and her improper communication skills. Because her parents were ridged in consulting a psychologist for her, few tests were conducted by the investigators to find out few causes and effects of the particular troubled behavior. For the in-depth study Case History Form, Child Clinicians Intake Summary Form (CISF), Mental Health Inventory (MHI), Beck’s Rating Scale (BRS), Developmental psychopathology checklist for children (DPCC), Attachment style questionnaire(ASQ), Student Problem Scale (SPS), Depression scale, Parental Attitude Research Instrument (PARI), Home Environment Scale (HES) and Parent Child Relationship Scale (PCRS) were conducted and the results were discussed.
