For the purpose of this investigation One Hundred Forty Four (N=144), Male subjects between the age group of 18-28 years (Mean ± SD: Age 22.722 ± 2.962 (yrs), Body Height 168.548 ± 5.879 (cm), Body Mass 64.583 ± 4.605 (kg)) volunteered to participate in the study. The investigator has used the Mental Health Battery (MHB) constructed by (Singh and Gupta, 2000) for measuring all the dimensions of mental health of the subjects and their overall mental health. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was used for all analyses.
