Abstract

The home environment is the most crucial factor in fostering children's development of trust, attitudes, and skills necessary for learning and positive engagement with the world. Home environment refers to the psychosocial climate of the home as given by the parents. It means whether the parents are child oriented, child respecting, take into account what the child actually needs. The goal of the research study is to assess the influence of home environment on the development of emotional intelligence and moral judgement of children. Total sample included 300 boys and 300 girls of age 8 to 12 years. The scales used were Home Environment Scale by Reena Sharma and Vibha Nigam, Multifactor Emotional Intelligence test by Vinod Kumar Shanuwal and Moral Judgement Test by Durganand Sinha and Meera Verma. Analysis of the data was done using descriptive statistics (Mean and Standard Deviation) and 3-way ANOVA. The results of the study revealed that emotional intelligence was higher in children coming from good home environment than children coming from poor home environment. Boys achieved significantly higher emotional intelligence than girls and girls revealed higher moral judgement than boys. Further home environment failed to influence moral judgement.
