TUTORIAL

1. Conduct a survey on the understanding and prevalence of psychological disorders among
higher secondary and undergraduate college students.
2. Prepare a questionnaire with at least ten questions.
3. Analyze the responses and categorize the understanding and awareness levels.
4. Identify any misconceptions or gaps in knowledge not discussed in the existing material.

To effectively gather data on students' understanding and awareness of psychological disorders,
a comprehensive questionnaire needs to be designed by referring to the study material.
The format of the questionnaire needs to include:
● Minimum ten questions related to the understanding and prevalence of psychological
disorders among higher secondary and undergraduate college students
● Personal details of the sample such as: name (optional), age, sex, class, educational
qualification, occupation if any, type of family, marital status etc. relevant in the context
of the particular activity.
● Can include open-ended questions also

Once the questionnaire is prepared, conduct the survey targeting higher secondary and
undergraduate college students. Ensure a diverse and representative sample size for accurate
analysis.

Sample: Minimum 15 students from each category of higher secondary school and
undergraduate college students

Data analysis:
Collect the responses and analyze them to identify common perceptions, misconceptions, and
levels of awareness regarding psychological disorders. Categorize the findings into different
types based on understanding and awareness levels. Refer to the unit on psychological
disorders to compare the identified perceptions with those discussed in the material. If any new
misconceptions or gaps in knowledge are discovered that do not fit into the existing categories,
create new categories for them. Finally, summarize the findings in a report, highlighting the
most common misconceptions and suggesting improvements or additional educational
resources that could help students better understand psychological disorders.
