Abstract

With the emergence of clinical psychology the study of frustration has become more important. Frustration is the one of the complex problem of real life. First of all, Freud (1933) established relationship between frustration and behaviour disorder. The purpose of present study was to compare the frustration among students of different socioeconomic status groups. The study was conducted over a random sample of 300 of +1 (plus one) students of senior secondary schools consisting 150 from Govt. schools (75 males and 75 females) and 150 from public schools (75 males and 75 females). Only four schools (one Govt. Boys and Govt. Girls and two public co-education school) were constructed in to the sample from the urban area. Frustration scale by Dr. N.S. Chauhan and Dr. G. Tiwari (1974) was used to measure the frustration of students. The scale was further being grouped into the following four components or variable-regression, fixation resignation and aggression. To know the socio-economic status of students, a socioeconomic status scale by Dr. Hasnain and Dr. Srivastava (2002) was used. The result reported that there exist no significant difference among high, average and low socio-economic status groups in various mode of frustration except that of resignation.
