Self-worth protection scale by was administered to identify the self-worth protective students. The sample of the study consisted of 40 students of XI standard, out of which 40 were detected as self-worth protective students. A 2 (Self-worth protection: high and low) x 2(Feedback: face saving and non-face saving) x 2 (Gender: male and female) factorial design was used.
