Abstract

A twenty point psychological scale designed following the Likert’s method of summated rating was adopted to compare the attitude of Self-Help Group (SHG) members and non-members towards Panchayati Raj. The scale was administered to a sample, each of 100 SHG members and non-members. The study revealed that just more than half of the SHG members held a favourable attitude towards Panchayati Raj whereas, more than half of the non-members were holding an unfavourable attitude.

Keywords: Attitude, Self-Help Groups, Panchayati Raj
