Abstract: The main agenda of this research was to see the effectiveness of psychological intervention for improving the self confidence level. It is an experimental sort of research to check for the effectiveness of any particular intervention. The subjects of the study were university students. Keeping in view the research evidences, hypothesis and objectives of the study undertaken, the researcher and the supervisor found it suitable to apply descriptive analysis. Around 20 students were selected with convenient sampling technique. Among which 9 (average age 22.63) participants are males and 14(average age 22.98) participants are females. The self made ‘self confidence scale’ was used to see the self confidence level of students. Paired sample t-test was used as a statistical technique in order to analyse and interpret the data. For conducting this research, pre-test was conducted to check the self confidence of students prior the interventional process. Then the implementation of the intervention took place where the main focus was to improve the self confidence level by conducting the therapy in the systematic way. For intervention REBT self help form was used. The sole objective of the study was to see the effectiveness of the intervention. After conducting the pre-test and post-test, the scoring indicating the self confidence level of the sample was matched. According to the results, t value is -3.33 and p value is 0.004 which reflects that there is a significant difference in pre test and the post test conditions. The results indicate a certain amount of effectiveness in the post test condition.
