CASE STUDY
INTRODUCTION
The case study is potentially the most valuable methods known for obtaining a
true and comprehensive picture of individually. It makes an intensive investigation of
the complex factors that contribute to the individuality of a social unit or person, family,
group, social institution or community. The purpose is to understand the lifecycle or an
important part of the lifecycle of the unit. It is an analysis involving the very careful the
complete observation of a person. A situation or an institution. It’s deeply and analysis
interaction between the factors that explain present status or that influence change or
growth. It is a longitudinal approach, showing development over a period of time. Case
study is closely related to experimentation whose purpose is to identify antecedents
responsible for the occurrence of such phenomena as reading disability, maladjustment,
immaturity and other behavioural Problems. Among the non-standardised techniques
of collecting information about the individual the techniques of the case study are
widely used. Case study refers to an intensive investigation in a person’s intra and inters
individual relationship. It is a collection o all available information social, psychological,
physiological, biological, environmental, vocational, that promises to help to explain a
single individual or single social unit such as a family relationship with a total stranger.
To be able to establish good report quickly. It is necessary to enter deeply and fully into
the entire background of the personal life of the subject. This requires a case history to
be prepared as a preliminary to the case study. A.E TAXLER says, “A case study is a
detailed study of an individual conducted for the purpose of bringing about better
adjustment of the person who is the subject of the investigation”. It in other words
provides information first of all in regards to the nature of the problem and letter on it
helps in providing treatment.
