Abstract :
Intergenerational division and disparity have
always been part of human culture and is a complex
concern between youth and their elders due to various
factors like the technological advancements, perceptual
differences, personal relations perspectives and cultural
variations etc. in which the personal relations factor had
more influence on the enhancement of children’s
intrapersonal management skills. But there is scant focus
on intrapersonal management all these years which had
its influence and impact on the younger generations. The
present study aims to explore the generational
differences between the adolescent students and their
parents on intra-personal management and its
implications and recommendations in furtherance as
there is imminent need to address their emotional
imbalance, instant gratification, oppressive thoughts,
weak adaptability, swaying moods, and such other issues
that germane to the human inner life. The current study
sample is comprised of 483 adolescent students and their
parents numbering 422 through random sampling for
the experimental study from Andhra Pradesh, India.
The Intrapersonal management inventory had been re-
adopted from Emotional intelligence Inventory of
Mangal and Mangal (2015). The statistical parametric
measures of Means, S.d’s,‘t’- values and ‘p’- values were
used to analyse the results. The results of the study
revealed that there is significant variance in the
intrapersonal management between one generation
(students) to the yester generation (parents) with t-value
of 6.452 at p-value of 0.000 and the students low
intrapersonal management score as against their counter
group warrants interventional strategies for the
corrective action to step-up the intrapersonal
management skills of the adolescents.
