Abstract:

The present study tries to explore the effect of mothers’education on Self concept and altruism of secondary school students. For this purpose 100 secondary school students were selected. Self- Concept Questionnaire prepared by Dr. R.K. Saraswat (2011) and Altruism Scale prepared by Dr. S.N. Rai and Dr. Sanwat Singh (2004) were used for the collection of data. SPSS-20 was used for the analysis of data. The mother education does not affect the Self concept of the students. As the mother education will increase the level of altruism in student’s decreases. If the mother education of students will increase, their Altruism will show more negative relationship. It means that the less educated mother’s children are more altruistic than more educated mothers. It may be concluded that that mothers’education affects the Self concept and altruism of the students.
