Abstract

This present research was conducted to investigate the levels of alienation among the university graduates and addressed whether gender, habitat, stream of study, caste, education level, age, father and mother’s behavior have relationship in causing the sense of alienation. The study was carried out among a sample of 160 graduates studying in the university. For collecting data “Alienation Scale” constructed by Hardeo Ojha, self reported personal data sheet and parental behaviour scale developed by researchers were used in the study. The results indicated that the university graduates level of alienation is moderate and no statistically significant difference in the university graduates levels of alienation based on gender, habitat, stream of study, caste, education level, age but there exist significant differences based on parental behavior.
