Anxiety disorders are very common in secondary school children with little epidemiological data from countries like India. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of anxiety disorders in higher secondary school students using Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) questionnaire. Methodology: The study was conducted in July 2014 and 100 students belonging to class 11 and class 12 of a higher secondary school at Tiptur were included in the study. The SCARED questionnaires were used to assess anxiety in these children. Results: In this study, 37% were found to have anxiety disorder (p value <0.001). Of these majority (58%) were females which was significant. Of the 100 children, 64% had PN (panic disorder), 10% had GD (generalized anxiety disorder), 53% had SP (separation anxiety), 15% had SC (social anxiety disorder) and 16% had SH (significant school avoidance). Hence in this study, panic disorder and separation anxiety were found to be highly prevalent. In this study of the children who had anxiety, majority of these children's mothers (79%) and majority of the children's fathers were illiterate (54%). In this study, of the children with anxiety, 76% belonged to nuclear family and majority i.e. 84% belonged to rural area. Conclusion: This study shows the high prevalence of undiagnosed depression and anxiety disorders among adolescents and hence the need for them. Early interventions can provide long-term health and socioeconomic benefits by prevention of the onset of mental health problems and their development into chronic disorders.
Human Resources Management is a function in organizations formulated to augment employee performance in service of an employer's strategic objectives. An employee is affected by intrinsic and extrinsic factors at work and his/her success depends on how he/she overcomes those factors and creates a good name in the Organization among his/her peers. Knowledge process outsourcing (KPO) describes the outsourcing of core information-related business activities which are competitively crucial and forms an essential part of a company's value chain. KPO requires strengthened analytical and technical skills as well as a high degree of specialist expertise.Stress in the workplace has the potential to impact employees of all categories, and managers as well as other kinds of workers who are vulnerable to work overload. However, less powerful employees (those who have less control over their jobs) are more likely to experience stress than employees with more power.
In today's culture, there are numerous factors that may act as a stress catalyst, making stress a big aspect of one's life. Covid-19 has wrought tremendous havoc all over the planet. Stress isn't just an issue for adults; it's also growing more common among children of all ages. Proper stress management is incredibly difficult to achieve since parents do not have the time to adequately care for their children. Most people assume that stress can only be caused by a traumatic event, but the fact is that tension may also be caused by a good experience. There are numerous causes of student stress that can lead to stress in a student's life, including misbehavior between the student and the teacher, which can lead to increased tension and stress. A lack of parental engagement also led in attacks on all pupils. Children in general do not pay attention to their eating habits, making them more vulnerable to stress in general. Inadequate sleep is also a source of stress, and students all over the world suffer as a result. Students' capacity to manage stress is hit or miss.
