Abstract:

The focus of this experimental study was to determine the level of effectiveness of the psychosocial support activity pack in developing psychosocial well-being and adjustment among Grade 6 pupils of San Francisco Elementary School. Project JOY – Join our Youth was proposed to serve as a guide for teachers and parents in outlining strategies and activities that can be implemented to strengthen psychosocial support. The respondents were 40 Grade 6 pupils of San Francisco Elementary School. Subjective non-probability sampling, also known as purposive non-random sampling, was used. The Psychosocial Test was used to determine the level of psychosocial well-being and adjustment among Grade 6 pupils of San Francisco Elementary School. Mean and five-point Likert Scale were used to evaluate the level of psychosocial well-being and adjustment. Test of significant difference was used for the assessment of Grade 6 pupils of San Francisco Elementary School on the level of psychosocial support before and after the intervention program. Findings showed that utilization of psychosocial support activity pack had a great impact in developing psychosocial well-being and adjustment among grade six pupils of San Francisco Elementary School. The result revealed that there was a significant difference between the psychosocial support prior to and after the intervention program.
