The aim of the present study was to enhancement of autonomy through life skills training among adolescent students. A conceptual analysis of different theoretical perspectives has resulted in an integrative model of attitudinal, emotional, and functional autonomy. Attitudinal autonomy refers to the cognitive process of choosing and defining a goal. Emotional autonomy refers to the affective process of feeling confident about one's own choices and goals. Functional autonomy refers to the regulatory process of developing a strategy to achieve these goals. Adolescent Autonomy Questionnaire by Noom et al. (1999) was used to measure adolescent students' autonomy and each component. After the pre-test a total of 200 adolescent students who measured low on autonomy were selected and divided into experimental and control groups (50 boys & 50 girls in each group). Life skills training program designed by World Health Organization (WHO) was administered to the experimental group in 8 training sessions of 120 minutes and the control group was kept under observation. The results showed that life skills training has significantly increased autonomy of the intervened sample than non intervened sample. We also found positive effect of life skills training in increasing all the sub-components of autonomy-attitudinal, emotional and functional autonomies.Keywords

The adolescent years are transforming at all levels: physical, emotional, social, cognitive and behavioral. Helping professionals have searched for ways for adolescents to acquire the skills necessary to face these many changes. Parents, educators and adolescents have tried to do what they can ,not only to survive ,but to make the most of major life transition that occurs from age 10-18 (Arnett, 2000). This study was done to investigate the effect of social skills training on self esteem among male and female adolescent students. The sample consisted of 200 (100 male & 100 female) adolescent students, were selected randomly and divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received social skills training in 10 sessions, but the control group didn't attend the sessions. Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale by Rosenberg (1965) was administered in pre and post intervention to measuring Self esteem. Results revealed that social skills training has significantly enhanced self esteem in the selected sample of experimental group and gender did not have differential influence on enhancing self esteem due to social skills training.Keywords
