Adolescence : a study of Discipline in selected Secondary schools
(2014-05-15) Nanjero, U. Asiachi
This study was mainly concerned with assessing the association between the incidence of acts of indiscipline within selected secondary schools with the adolescents in the same schools. It was hoped that the data that would be collected would be analysed with a view to confirming the existence of discipline problems in the selected secondary schools and establishing the existence of some association between the acts of indiscipline and the adolescents in the selected schools. The overriding assumption of the study was that any specific findings from one selected school would apply equally to the other one without loss of generality. Findings have shown that there exist discipline problems in schools which in fact have occurred and recurred over a long period of time. Most of these problems of indiscipline in schools, especially the more severe ones, depended on one's measure of severity, can safely and confidently be predicted to be associated with the adolescents in the schools.
