Academic Pressure and Psychological Well-being among Adolescents in Rural Odisha: A Study Conducted in Nayagarh District of Odisha

Author(s) Dr. Manju Prava Das
Country India
Abstract The Indian education system has undergone significant transformation during recent decades with increasing academic competition, examination pressure, parental expectations, and technological influence. Adolescents, particularly school-going students, face considerable psychological stress due to academic burden and social expectations. The present study investigates the impact of the Indian education system on the mental health of young adolescents in Nayagarh district of Odisha. A descriptive survey method was adopted using both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Data were collected from 200 adolescent students studying in secondary schools through questionnaires, interviews, observation methods, and mental health rating scales. Statistical techniques such as percentage analysis, mean score analysis, and qualitative thematic interpretation were used for data analysis. The findings revealed that academic stress, examination anxiety, parental pressure, fear of failure, and lack of emotional support significantly influence adolescent mental health. Female students were found to experience comparatively higher emotional stress than male students. Anxiety, sleep disturbances, and emotional instability emerged as common psychological problems among adolescents. The study recommends introducing school counselling services, stress-management education, flexible curriculum design, and parental awareness programmes to promote adolescent mental well-being.
