Sibling Rivalry is one of humanity's oldest problems. Parents frequently have questions about sibling hostility or regression and concerns about their ability to integrate another child into the family. A Quasi experimental study was conducted using Non-equivalent control group for a total of Eighty mothers (40-experimental and 40-control) recruited from selected areas in Bhopal (M.P), India by non-probability convenience sampling technique. Researcher Developed Structured questionnaire containing 30 items was used for assessing the knowledge level of sample. Reliability and validity of the tool were established. Pre-test was conducted among experimental and control group and the Video Assisted Teaching Module (VATM) was administered to mothers in the experimental group followed by post-test on14th day. The study found that, there was a significant improvement among post-test mean knowledge score (15.3±4.99) among the subjects compared to the pre-test score (9.57±4.63) at p < 0.001 level. There is a significant association between knowledge of mothers with their demographic variables like education, occupation, family monthly income and source of previous information. The study concluded that VATM was effective in improving the knowledge on sibling rivalry management.
