Abstract
Out of various problems faced by the students, the problem of setting the proper level of Educational Aspiration is the most important. Not only Psychological factors but also various societal factors like culture, opportunities, family background of the students, their socio-economic status, task oriented attitude, educational system, school curricula, school environment and performance influence the formation of nature and fulfillment of educational aspirations. The entry of tribal students of Odisha into the higher education and their representation in various elite groups is very poor. The researcher assumed it is due to the improper level of educational and career aspiration of the people of tribal community. Keeping these in view, the researchers considered Educational Aspiration as an important variable to study and considered the problem titled Category (Tribe and Non-tribe) as a Factor in Educational Aspiration: An Investigation. For this purpose, researchers selected 680 (N =680) Secondary School going students from different sections studying in schools running under the Board of Secondary Education Odisha. The Mazumder Educational Aspiration Inventory (MEAI) has been used to measure the selected variable. Descriptive statistics along with t-test have been employed to analyze the data. The category i.e. tribe and non-tribe was found an important factor in setting Educational Aspiration.
