Abstract
The experimental study examined the effects of Cognitive Restructuring and Multi-Component Therapies (CR) & (MCT) in the management of Nocturnal Enuresis among junior secondary school adolescents. The study adopted 3x2 factorial design. Two research questions and three null hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. A sample of twenty seven (27) junior secondary school adolescents was used for the study. Two instruments, Enuresis identification questionnaire and Internal and External locus of control scale were used for assessment during pre-test, post test and follow-up sessions. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) and t-test statistics were used to analyze the data obtained. The findings indicated that the treatment techniques were effective in managing enuretic behaviour. Implication of the findings include that the subjects who had gained control over their enuresis behaviour due to treatment received will develop self-confidence in the ability to control and direct their behaviours and consequently achieve their goals especially in academic performance. It was recommended for use in handling not only other enuretic students but students with other behavioural problem.
