Abstract
An investigation was conducted pertaining to the relationship of students’ grade point average and subcomponents of alienation, powerlessness, normlessness, and social isolation. Three hundred randomly sampled eleventh year students from three western New York high schools responded to Dean’s Alienation Scale. The results indicate that (a) normlessness is the prime component of alienation for secondary school students and (b) normlessness is significantly related to discrepant academic achievement for male Ss.
