SOCIAL COMPETENCE AMONG RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL SCHEDULED TRIBE STUDENTS

The problem of Social Competence is more evidently reflected in the educational field because the relationship in the classrooms is the prototype of ex-classroom relations. The socially awkward child is likely to misrespond to teacher as well as to other children. Dropping out of school is a particular risk of children who are socially rejected. These problems are universal because the way a child handles relationship in school years definitely reflect the way he would handle the relationship in his adult hood. In this study investigators try to find the level of Social Competence among Residential and Non Residential School Tribal Students. For that researchers selected 137 Residential and 127 Non Residential (total=260) school Tribal Students. Data collected by using Social Competence Scale developed and standardized by investigators. Results show that both Residential and Non Residential School Tribal Students posses average level of Social Competence. The level of Social Competence is high among Residential School Tribal Students.
