Psychological well-being is one of the most cherished goals of humanity. It defines the idea of "good life". The present study is an attempt to examine the psychological well-being among senior citizens and their socio-economic variables. A sample of 60 elderly people of above 60 years from the Hisar city of Haryana, were taken as respondents from families and old age homes. Their psychological well-being was measured by using the PGC Morale Scale and for socioeconomic variables self-prepared interview scheduled was used as a tool. The statistical results of the study stated that factors, age, residence place, spouse partner, health status and income source were significantly associated with the psychological state of the elderly people whereas sex was not significantly associated. Therefore, they need special attention from family, policy makers, and those who work with elderly people.Keywords

The concept of temperament directs our attention to important aspects of child individuality that must be considered in parenting. Using a sample of 120 families having two children who were between 10 and 17years of age and their parents, this study assessed the relationship between child temperament and parental differential treatment and was undertaken in purposively selected Hisar city, of Haryana State. Thereby, the total sample was consisted of 240 children (120 older and 120 younger siblings) and 240 parents. Both parents were informants for temperamental qualities. Malhotra's Temperament Schedule (Malhotra and Malhotra, 1988) was used to study child temperamental qualities. Comparative distribution of younger and older siblings on different temperamental qualities depicted that younger siblings were more social, had positive moods as well as more active, and whereas, older siblings were relatively more attentive. Berkeley Parent-child Interview Schedule developed by Ablow and Measelle (1993) was used to study PDT. In the face of social norms for equal treatment, the present study provided evidences that mothers and fathers often treat their offspring differentially. As per siblings' perception regarding PDT in the domains of warmth, over half of mothers and fathers both favoured younger siblings more than the older siblings, whereas, nearly same percentage of both parents were relatively more hostile to the older siblings. Correlation results clearly established that children's temperament statistically predicted maternal differential warmth and hostility treatment of siblings in the family. Implications for intervention programs targeted at decreasing differential treatment are discussed.Keywords

Depression in the children merits special mention because the early onset of depression in children is associated with poorer prognosis and a severe and recurrent course in adulthood. Researchers are in favour of using multiple informants when assessing children for possible depressive disorders. The current study examined depression in a sample of 80 children aged between 11-15 years. Using baseline data from multi-informants i.e. children, parents, and teachers, this study examined depression agreement across two or more informants. The Children Depression Inventory (CDI) (Kovac, 1985) was used to measure depression using child, parent and teacher version. The study indicated that as per child and teacher report, one-fourth of total sample was detected with depression symptoms but parents reported slightly higher percentage of children with depressive symptoms (31.3%). Mean comparison results revealed that reports of multi-informants were significantly different from each other. The results of the study provide confirmation of earlier findings on depression. The study will increase awareness in public and among stakeholders about mental health disparity among children in Haryana. Implications for the integration of multi-informant assessment information are discussed.Keywords

Independent variables considered were age, sex, ordinal position of child, socio-economic status of the family and type of school. Adolescents stress and coping styles were the dependent variables. In the process of investigation. “A life stress scale” by Agarwal and Naidu (1986) and coping questionnaire by Folkman and Lazarus (1985) were used.
