Effect of Co-Curricular Activities on Self Confidence of Elementary

Abstract

This study sought to investigate the effect of co-curricular activities on students' self-confidence. The study's target population consisted of eighth-grade students from Upper Chitral government boys' schools. The primary goal of the study was to determine the impact of cocurricular activities on elementary school-aged children's self-confidence. The survey design was used to conduct this research. A questionnaire with 10 Likert Scale items was used to collect data. The data was gathered from a sample of 201 students from the entire population. A cluster sampling technique was used to select samples, with each school treated as a cluster. The study included seven randomly selected schools. The collected data was loaded into SPSS software, and the dataset's basic features were described. SPSS was used to calculate percentages, frequencies, and simple means in response to the research questions. Approximately 78% of students took part in co-curricular activities, while 22% did not. Students who participated in co-curricular activities demonstrated more confidence than those who did not. It was concluded that co-curricular activities had a significant effect on students' self-confidence at the elementary level.
