I have a doubt shielding effect increases with increase in atomic radius then why s orbital has more shielding effect then p orbital

Dear student... Size of s and p orbitals are very lesser than d and f , due to that electrons of d and f orbitals are spreaded in large area and thus there are less effective shielding or poor shielding. structures of orbitals are also responsible for that....
