Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to compare Mental Health among National Level, State Level and District Level Handball Players. For the purpose of this investigation Seventy (N=70), Male subjects between the age group of 18-28 years (Mean ± SD: Age 21.942 ± 2.442 (yrs), Body Height 168.2 ± 5.864 (cm), Body Mass 65.16 ± 4.089 (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. To conclude, it is significant to mention in relation to Emotional Stability, Overall Adjustment, Autonomy, Intelligence and Mental Health that results of Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) among Handball Players (i.e., National Level, State Level and District Level) were found statistically insignificant (P> .05). Furthermore, in relation to Security–Insecurity and Self-Concept that result of Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) among Handball Players (i.e., National Level, State Level and District Level) were found statistically significant (P< .05).
