GRATITUDE’S IMPACT ON RESILIENCE IN ADOLESCENTS WITH PHYSICAL DISABILITIES

This study, titled "Gratitude Unveiled: Exploring Emotional Resilience in Male and Female Adolescents with Physical Disabilities," delves into the gratitude levels of 102 participants aged 25-40 in Bihar and UP, using the Gratitude Questionnaire (GQ-6). Gratitude dimensions were assessed, with males exhibiting higher scores in Dimensions 1, 4, and 5, and lower scores in Dimension 3. Females displayed slightly elevated scores in Dimensions 1, 4, and 5, with lower scores in Dimension 3. Aggregated data revealed a moderate overall gratitude level, highlighting individual variability. ANOVA results indicated no significant differences in gratitude levels between genders. Correlation analysis explored relationships between gratitude dimensions and demographic factors, revealing noteworthy interdimensional associations. These findings contribute insights into gratitude among adolescents with physical disabilities, crucial for tailoring interventions to support their emotional well-being within this demographic.
