Multidimensional Nss Participation and Competency Scale (Mnsspcs): A Handbook for Scale Development, Administration and Interpretation

By Dr. Shyam Mishra, Prof R.K. Dwivedi, Dr. Jaya Bharti

The Multidimensional NSS Participation and Competency Scale (MNSSPCS) is a comprehensive, scientifically developed, and validated assessment tool designed to evaluate the competencies and developmental outcomes acquired through participation in the National Service Scheme (NSS). Developed in alignment with the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, this manual bridges the gap between community service and evidence-based assessment by providing a structured framework to measure five essential dimensions of NSS participation:

Service Commitment and Social Responsibility, Leadership and Teamwork, Personal Development, Civic Awareness and National Values, NSS Skills and Program Engagement.

The book provides complete guidance on the conceptual framework, administration, scoring procedures, interpretation of results, and practical applications of the scale. It is an invaluable resource for NSS program officers, psychologists, educators, researchers, teacher educators, higher education institutions, policymakers, and students seeking reliable tools for assessing youth development and service-learning outcomes. By promoting objective evaluation of NSS participation, the MNSSPCS supports quality enhancement, program evaluation, research, and policy development while encouraging responsible citizenship, leadership, and holistic student development.
