The above table indicates that the value of r is -0.7539 which further indicates a
significant negative correlation between Rejection provided by the teachers and Moral
Reasoning among youngsters. It means that there is a significant negative relationship
between Rejection provided by the teachers and Moral Reasoning of the subjects under
study. One can infer that higher the Rejection exercised by the teachers lesser will be
the Moral Reasoning among students. So, Hypothesis No. 3 stating that there is no
significant relationship between Rejection exercised by the teachers and Moral
Reasoning among pre - adolescents, is rejected and it can be reframed as: There exists
a significant negative relationship between Rejection exercised by the teachers and
Moral Reasoning among pre - adolescents”
Hypothesis No.4: “There is no significant relationship between Control imposed by
the teachers and Moral Reasoning among youngsters.”
