Data were analysed using median and t-test. Results (1) based on the median value shows that there is social development in Overall sample, Boys, Children of both literate Parents and Children of single literate Parents. On the other hand Girls, adolescence belongs to other backward caste, scheduled caste and Children of both illiterate parents have poor social development. (2) based on t-test shows that there is no significance of difference between the sub-samples of (i) Boys and Girls (ii) Other backward community and Scheduled community (iii) Children of both literate Parents and Children of both illiterate Parents (iv) Children of both literate Parents and Children of single literate Parents (v) Children of both illiterate Parents and Children of single literate Parents.

Summary

OBJECTIVES

The following objectives were framed: 1) To find out the status of Social Development of Adolescence as a whole in rural area of Puducherry. Studies suggest that cooperative interactions with peers in experimental settings are not as consistently beneficial to young children's cognitive growth as they are for school-age children Both theory and empirical research suggest that social play like that seen in early childhood classrooms is a context in which young children gain critical knowledge from peer cooperation. These contexts differ in how much they allow children to create and sustain their own joint goals, which likely influences their learning from cooperative interactions in experimental settings.
