Abstract
This study examined the effect of Transactional Analysis on the psychosocial challenges of adolescence. Two research hypotheses were made to guide the study. The sample consisted of seventy (106) senior secondary school students. A-40 item self-developed questionnaire was designed for data collection. The study adopted a quasi-experimental control group design. Analysis of data was achieved using Analysis of Co-variance (ANCOVA) at 0.05 level of significance. The result of the findings showed that there was a significant effect of Transactional Analysis on the psychosocial challenges of adolescents F(1, 104) = 275.882, p 0.05 and that family dispute did not have significant effect on secondary school adolescents’ psychosocial challenges, F ( 2, 104) = 0.414, p 0.05. The treatment, Transactional Analysis applied in this study was effective in the reduction of psychosocial challenges among secondary school adolescents. Counsellors should be proactive in identifying adolescents with psychosocial problems and assist them through the use of Transactional Analysis. It is recommended that counsellors, educational administrators, and policymakers should always make use of this counselling therapy, when handling adolescents’ challenges.
本研究考察了交易分析对青少年心理社会挑战的影响。提出了两个研究假设来指导研究。样本由70(106)名高中生组成。采用自行设计的A-40项问卷进行数据收集。本研究采用准实验对照组设计。数据分析采用协方差分析(ANCOVA),显著性水平为0.05。结果显示,交易分析对青少年心理社会挑战有显著影响(F(1,104) = 275.882, p 0.05),家庭纠纷对中学青少年心理社会挑战无显著影响(F(2,104) = 0.414, p 0.05)。本研究所采用的交易分析治疗方法,在减少中学青少年的心理社会挑战方面是有效的。辅导员应积极主动地识别有社会心理问题的青少年,并通过使用交易分析来帮助他们。建议咨询师、教育管理人员和决策者在处理青少年挑战时应始终利用这种咨询疗法。
