摘要:Social loafing is a common behaviour exhibited by the students when they work in groups. Modern education requires the use of supportive and mutual strategies of learning. If the social loafing behaviour of the students persists then we cannot succeed in adopting collaborative strategies. One can achieve anything when one believes in one self. But one fails when one is having doubt in one self. The feeling of confidence is a positive state of vibration, where the subconscious mind is directed towards the success of the individuals. Self confident persons are ready to danger the condemnation of others since they usually belief their own ability. They have a tendency to acknowledge themselves; they don't experience that they need to prove, to be acknowledged by others. Many researchers studied self confidence in relation to many variables like stress tolerance, managing work and task performance but not with social loafing. This study is an effort to going to social loafing tendency among senior secondary school students in relation to their self confidence. It is very important to know the role of self confidence in school students which will helps to reduce the problem of social loafing as well as other major issues.
