PSYCHOLOGICAL INTERVENTIONS AND ADOLESCENT GROWTH: A PARENT-CENTRIC STATISTICAL ASSESSMENT

Abstract

The reassessment of psychological intervention programs provides fresh insights into their effectiveness from a parental perspective. This study revisits previously collected data of 240 parents from Ghaziabad, India, whose adolescent children participated in structured psychological programs. Using descriptive analysis, reliability testing, PCA, and t-tests, we reanalyzed the data with expanded statistical visuals to enhance clarity. The results confirm three major benefit domains: behavioural aspects, cognitive skill development, and future benefits. Parents showed the strongest agreement with future benefits (M = 4.75), followed by behavioural aspects (M = 4.73), and cognitive skills (M = 4.68). Gender-based differences were significant across all factors, while age group differences were not. The visual reanalysis provides more compelling evidence for the efficacy of such programs in supporting adolescent growth.
