personality-physical, mental, emotional and social. It is
concerned with all aspects of individuals attitudes and
behaviour patterns.it seeks to help the individual to integrate all
of his activities in terms of his basic potentialities and
environmental opportunities.
Any needy person can be guided. This can include the persons
of different age, different interests, various characteristics and
persons of different nature. Hence, we can’t draw boundaries
around the process of guidance.
The following factors are responsible for the expansion of
guidance.
1. Complex nature of Personality: What is the
Industrialization brings with it a number of tensions such as scope of
adjustment with the job, with the place of work, with the Lecture cum PPT, Guidance?
physical and social environment, and also with the discussion Chalk
advancements of technology and modernization. To cope with Board
all these, guidance is essential. So the scope of guidance in the
field of adjustment with almost all the spheres of life has
increased.
2. Complexity of Occupation:
In the process of industrialization, automation and cybernetics,
many new occupations are coming up and few old occupations
are dying. In USA, an average man changes seven occupations
through his life. The trend is bound to effect as the process of
development will need very complex sophisticated and
complicated occupations for which higher educational
background and intensive training will be necessary. This
complexity is bound to increase the scope of guidance in so
many ways.
3. Complexity of Training:
For the new jobs, new type of training, new courses of studies,
use of new type of machines and above all to prepare oneslef
for the employment in the changing world are some of the
problems which will have to be tackled in an effective way,
with the help of guidance. The scope of guidance will be to put
right man in the right job.
4. Increasing areas:
with the passing of time and complexity of circumstances,
scholars like “Brewer” have prepared about 10 areas of
guidance i.e, educational, vocational, religious, home
relationship, well personal well-being, right doing, cooperation
and cultural action. The fact remains that more complex the
society, more will be the need for guidance.
5. Migration:
Because of industrialization process, people move from one
state to other states. In India the states are quiet different in
their religion, culture, mode of living, dress, eating habits and
marriages. When they move from one social setup to another
one the problem of adjustment becomes serious for which
guidance is needed.
The similar type of adjustment problems are found when the
people from one country migrate to another country for
employment, education or training, for which guidance is
required.
6. The expansion of Education:
The time has gone when few privileged were to be educated.
Now, education has become asset for the nation and right
placement of persons need a lot of guidance.
7. Areas of Guidance:
The scope of guidance is classified into several areas where and
individual needs guidance. These areas can be classified into
educational guidance, vocational guidance, personal guidance,
social guidance and health guidance.
Thus Guidance is a continuous, complex, dynamic and
comprehensive process. Guidance is concerned with
educational, vocational and other problems along with personal
problems. Guidance work can occur anywhere and can be
provided even through magzines, books and correspondence.

adjust to himself, to others and to his own peculiar
environment.
