Introduction

It is an emerging field of psychology is viewed as an attempt to understand describe and

explain the behavior of sports persons in athletic setting both practice and competitive with a view

to enhance performance. Today there is no sport without sports psychology. It is well know that

psychology grew out of philosophy and within a few decades of the modern era of science and

education, it shaped into a huge banyan tree with hundreds of branches and offshoots making it a

recent phenomenon a distinct addition to that ever expanding family of psychology. Known as

hybrid science, a fusion of sport, science and psychology-sports psychology is all about sports

behavior especially with muscle-mind interaction, there influences and their outcomes in the

context of sports, which is basically a form of active reaction, but which has turned intensely

competitive on account of growing olympism well over a century.

Sports psychological intervention coping strategies, mental skills such as imagining

concentrating, are focusing excreta. Team interaction and convention are all practical tasks in which

athlete’s teachers/coaches and sports psychologists play reciprocally cooperative but decisive roles.

All other things being equal athletic event/sports are winning in the mind. One of the goals of

applied sports psychology is to investigate human performance stabilize and to enhance sports

performance.

The physical and sports are important factors of common education. Here the education is

important but not the only the physical activities. That is the psychological factors should be given

as much as important as of physical activities. The overall development of person is an aim of

common education. Along with physical education that should be given an equal importance.

Initially the people are to spend their leaser-time by involving in physical activities. Which is to

bring them and happiness.

As a time-past the people got increased and also the participation in physical activities also

got increased. This change to increase in interest and also the competition.

By this the lot of sports persons are becoming professional oriented. Today as there is immense

competition among these persons, so a person with just physical abilities, motor abilities, and any

other kind of physical abilities at peak-level they sports persons want to become successful he is

psychological factors alsoaining plays an important role. So the psychological training is need to be

given. That includes motivation, achievement motivation, aspiration levels, anxiety and arousal,

aggression and team-cohesion etc.

Therefore a success in the field of sports needs both the physical and psychological factors. This

gets us to an understanding that it is default and very much necessary to train the physical education

teachers, coaches in these psychological factors as they are directly linked with the people involved

in sports.

Among these psychological factors the “aggression” is important one. And the birth of this factor

has different opinions.

 The one opinion says that this comes along with birth and be a survival of the fittest.

 Whereas the other opinion says that it depends on the environment where he grows.

The sports persons get into depression when the factors like fear, worry, socio-inequity, attitudinal

factors. Encroach an him. Leading to change in his normal behavior by expressing himself in

abnormal behavior is situational. So this person to control on his emotions to balance the aggression

factor.

A person also needs to have control on his aggression to much of aggression and also to low of it is

dangerous because his low aggression pulls –him back in the participation of the sports itself and

that of high aggression leads to an irregular activities such as breaking of rules and non coordinative

behavior with his teammates, opponents and others.

Ex:- in the field of cricket the behavior of the player Harbajan Singh with his teammate srishant.

This level of aggression also depends on the sports:- age, his surrounding environment and the

different types of sports activities involved in such as.

Physical education trends have developed recently to incorporate a greater variety of activities.

Introducing students to activities like bowling, walking/hiking, or Frisbee at an early age can help

students develop good activity habits that will carry over into adulthood. Some teachers have even

begun to incorporate stress reduction techniques such as yoga and deep-breathing. Teaching non –

traditional sports to students may also provide the necessary motivation for students to increase

their activity, and can help students learn about different cultures.

Another trend is the incorporation of Health and Nutrition to the physical education

curriculum. The Child Nutrition and WIC Re-authorization Act of 2004 required that all school

districts with a federally funded school meal program develop wellness policies that address

nutrition and physical activity. While teaching students sports and movement skills, P.E. teachers

are now incorporating short health and nutrition lessons into the curriculum. This is more prevalent

at the elementary school level, where students do not have a specific Health class. Recently most

elementary schools have specific health classes for students as swine flu, school district are making

it mandatory for students to learn about practicing good hygiene along with other health courses.

Many colleges and Universities offer both Physical Education and Health as one certification. This

push towards Health education is beginning in the intermediate level, including lessons on bullying,

self-esteem and anger management.

In America, the physical education curriculum is designed to allow school pupils a full range of

modern opportunities, dozens of sports and hundreds of carefully reviewed drills and exercises,

including exposure to the education with the use of pedometer, GPS, and heart rate monitors, as

well as state-of-the-art exercise machines in the upper grades. Some martial arts classes, like

wrestling in the United States, and Pancake Silt in France, Indonesia and Malaysia, are taught to

teach children self-defense and to feel good about themselves. The physical education curriculum is

designed to allow students to experience at least a minimum exposure to the following categories of

activities: aquatics, conditioning activities, gymnastics, individual/dual sports, team sports, rhythms,

and dance. Students are encouraged to continue to explore those activities in which they have a

primary interest by effectively managing their community resources.

Sports psychology is the study of the psychological factors that affect participation and

performance in sports. It is also a specialization within the brain psychology and kinesiology that

seeks to understand psychological/mental factors that affect performance in sports, physical

activity, and exercise and apply these to enhance individual and team performance. It deals with

increasing performance by managing emotions and minimizing the psychological effects of injury

and poor performance. Some of the most important skills taught are goal setting, relaxation,

visualization, self-talk, awareness and control, concentration, confidence, using rituals, attribution

training, and periodization. Sport psychology defined in laymen’s terms: there are many psychology

tools you can apply in sports. Some of the psychology tools are mentioned above, but most

successful sport psychologists will analyze each individual to determine their learning style. The

latest and most effective psychology used in sports today is neuro-linguistic programming (NPL).

NPL categorize each individual’s learning style whether it’s visual learning, auditory (hearing)

learning, or kinesthetic (hands on or emotional) learning. For example, if you learn from hearing,

you would benefit from imagining in your mind the sound of the crowd cheering your name after

you have won a competition. The emotional experience you receive from imagining the sound of

the crowd cheering your name is then enhanced by using NLP techniques, also you will be taught to

recall this emotion at will while in competition to motivate yourself to perform at a higher level.

This type of psychology is popular in sports involving extreme mental situations.

Definition of terms

Football:

Association football, soccer, or simply football is a team sport played between two teams

each consisting of eleven players. It is a ball game played on a rectangular grass (sometimes

artificial turf) field with a goal at each and. The object of the game is to score by maneuvering the

spheroid ball into the opposing goal. Other than the goalkeepers, players may not use their hands or

arms to propel the ball in general play. The winner of the match is the team that has scored most

goals at the end of the match. The sport is known by many names throughout the English-speaking

world, although football is the most common. Other names, such as association football and soccer,

are often used to distinguish the game from other codes of football, since the word football may be

used to refer to several quite different games.

Handball:

Field Handball is a team sport of the Handball family. The game can be played on synthetic

field or Mud field. The game of field Handball is played between two teams of seven players

including the goalie.

Hand ballis a popular team game, an exciting game with many dramatic single combats, a

Hand ball is one of the rare game and also Second Fastest game in the world.

It is a game played between two teams of seven players each in an area of 40 x 20 mts under

certain rules and regulations.

PSYCHOLOGY:

In order to understand where we are going, it sometimes helps to take a look at where we have

been. While psychology is a relatively young discipline, it has a rich and colorful history. With

iconic figures like Sigmund Frieud and B.F. Skinner, studying the history of psychology provides

an intriguing glimpse into the minds of some of the preeminent thinkers of the past century.

AGGRESSION:

In psychology, the term aggression refers to a range of behaviors that can result in both physical

and psychological harm to oneself, other or objects in the environment. The expression of

aggression can occur in a number of ways, including verbally, mentally and physically.

Review of literature

Ganapathi analyzed the anxiety, aggression, frustration and stress between in collegiate and

university level men and women soccer players for this study 30 men women players each in

collegiate level group and university group where selected as subjects. Their age were ranging from

18to23. The data was static ally analyzed using 2x2 factorial ANOVA. It was found that the

anxiety, aggression level players were significantly greater than the college players, the anxiety,

aggression level of male soccer players were greater than the male soccer players. The indication

effect of anxiety, aggression, frustration and stress between in university level male and female

soccer players were insignificant.

Onifade (1983) examined the relationship among attitude, physical activity like adjustment

and aggression and physical activity belief of Nigerian male (N=217) and female (N=133)

University students is U.S.A. Attitudes were assessed through the attitude towards physical activity

inventory developed by Kenyon (1968), while physical activity behavior was assumed by the use of

a scale developed by ZoichKowsky (1979). Datawas collected on the physical activity belief of

subject by a scale development by the researcher. Data was analyzed through the use of univariate

and multivariate statistical procedures. Results depicted that there was no relationship among

attitudes, physical activity behavior and physical activity belief of subjects. However, there were

some relationship between some specific attitudes and physical activity behavior and physical

activity belief. Subjects also chose individual physical activities and dual and team activities.

Meeriman (1985) determined the relationship of the influence of social system, attitude

toward physical activity and physical education placement to the degree of participation in physical

activity of emotionally disturbed high school students. 206 emotion of adjustment disturbed male

and female student’s age 14-21 attending public schools in New York City served as subjects. The

degree of participation was measured by the physical activity.

Socialization inventory. Attitude toward physical activity was measured by the children’s

Physical attitude toward physical activity inventory. The analysis of data revealed that (1) the

influence of social system was related to the degree of participation. (2) The attitude toward

physical activity was related to the degree of participation. (3) The influence of social systems and

attitude toward physical activity, in combination contributed to variance in participation.

Attitude toward physical activity and physical education placement in combination contributed to

variance in participation. (5) The influence of social systems, attitude toward physical activity and

physical education placement, in combination contributed to variance in participation and

(6) The total variance of participation occurred for the three predictor variables, the influence of

social system makes the largest unique contribution.

Hayajneh (1989) investigated sixty five Americans and sixty seven Jordanians related to

aggression emotion both samples consisted of male and female sport participants and sport drop

outs between the age of 11 and 17 years. He had two purposes. The first purpose was to determine

any differences between Americans and Jordanians in their reasons for participating in and

dropping out of youth sport programmers. The second purpose was to examine factors in

achievement motives that might discriminate from Americans extrinsic/intrinsic motivation and

achievement goals. The most important reasons that Americans had for sports participation were

liking to have fun, liking to improve skills and liking to learn new skills. For Jordanians liking the

team spirit, liking to be popular and liking to travel were the most important reasons for

participation. Both Americans and Jordanian drop outs listed emphasis on winning and losing and

the lack of fun as a most important reason for dropping out of sports programmers. There were no

significant differences between Americans and Jordanians in their factors of achievement

motivation and sports participation.

Young (1969) studied the relationship between the personal, social adjustment, physical

fitness and attitude towards physical education among high school girls with varying

socioeconomic levels. She concluded that there was no significant difference between socio-

economic status groups with reference to physical fitness or attitude towards physical education.

There was significant positive correlation between physical fitness and attitudes towards physical

education for the entire population at .001 level, within the high and low socio-economic groups at

the .05 level and within the middle group at the .01 level. There was a significant correlation at .05

level but physical fitness and personal social adjustment for the population and within the low

socio-economic status groups; there was an inverse and significant correlation between social

adjustment and attitudes towards physical education at .01 level.

Sham (1987) undertook a case study to determine student attitudes towards interscholastic

sports participation and factors that affect their attitudes. Data was gathered from high school

yearbooks. Pennsylvania department of education, a survey questionnaire administered to 155 high

school student and individual interviews of selected students participants, students and individual

interviews of selected students participants, student non-participants and community members.

Result indicated: (1) level of sports participation remained approximately 25 percent over the period

of 165-85. (2) Several factors appear to affects the attitudes of students toward participation in

interscholastic sports. Parental influence was the most definite factor. Other factors noted were peer

influence and coach influence, perceived athletic ability sport as fun, priority of sports and the

relationship of sports to academic achievement. (3) Students especially participants reacted

favorably to the schools interscholastic sports programmed and believed that sports were

worthwhile because they thought such concepts as cooperation, competition and learning

responsibility. Sports were perceived as beneficial for physical fitness and adjustment. Students

reacted negatively to the overemphasis on competition and winning pressure from coaches and

sports not being fun. (4) Coaches, faculty, parents and community members believed that sports

participation was beneficial to students.

The relationship of sport involvement with children’s Moral reasoning and aggression

tendencies.

 Abstract: The relationships between sport involvement variables (participation and interest)

and facets of children’s morality (reasoning maturity and aggression tendencies) were

investigated for 106 girls and boys in grades 4 through 7. Children responded to a sport

involvement questionnaire, participated in a moral interview, and completed two self-report

instruments designed to assess aggression tendencies in sport-specific and daily life contexts.

Analyses revealed that boy’s participation and interest in high contact sports and girls

participation in medium contact sports (the highest level of contact sport experience they

reported) were positively correlated with less mature moral reasoning and greater tendencies

to aggress. Regression analyses demonstrated that sport interest predicted reasoning maturity

and aggression tendencies better than sport participation. Results and implication are

discussed from a structural developmental perspective.

A comparative study of adjustment and aggression of inter university football and handball

players.

Physical education trends developed recently to incorporate a greater variety of activities.

Introducing students to activities like bowling, walking/hiking, or Frisbee at an early age can

help students develop good activity habits that will carry over into adulthood. Some teachers

have even begun to incorporate stress-reduction techniques such as yoga and deep-breathing.

Teaching non-traditional sports to students may also provide the necessary motivation for

students to increase their activity, and can help students learn about different cultures. For

example, while teaching a unit about lacrosse (in, say, Arizona, USA), students can also learn a

little bit about the native American cultures of the northeast and eastern Canada, where lacrosse

originated. Teaching non-traditional (or non-native) sports provides a great opportunityto

integrate academic concepts from other subjects as well (social studies from the example above),

which may now be required of many P.E. teachers. There are four aspects of P.E. which is

physical, mental, social, and emotional. Psychology is the science of mind and behavior. Its

immediate goal is to understand behavior and mental processes by researching and establishing

both general principles and specific cases. For many practitioners, one goal of applied

psychology is to benefit society in this field, a professional practitioner or researcher is called a

psychologist, and can be classified as a social scientist, behavioral scientist, or cognitive

scientist. Psychologists attempt to understand the role of mental functions in individual and

social behavior, while also exploring the physiological and neurobiological processes that

underline certain functions and behaviors. Adjustment: in psychology, adjustment is studied

especially in abnormal psychology and also in social psychology. In our daily life there has been

a continuous struggle between the needs of the individual and the external forces, since time

immemorial. According to Darwin’s theory of evolution those species which adapted

successfully to the demands of living survived and multiplied while who did not died. Therefore

adaptation or changing of if one self or one’s surrounding according to the demands of external

environment became the basic need for our survival. It is as true today with all of us as it was

with Darwin’s primitive species. In psychology, as well as other social and behavioral sciences,

aggression (also called combativeness) refers to behavior between members of the same species

that is intended to cause pain or harm. Predatory behavior between members of one species

towards another species is also described as “aggression”.

Data Analysis and Results

Introduction

However valid, reliable and adequate the data may be, it does not serve any useful purpose

unless it is carefully processed, systematically classified and tabulated, scientifically analyzed,

intelligently interpreted and rationally concluded.

After the data been collected, it was processed and tabulated using Microsoft Excel-2013

software and SPSS V.21.0.1 Software. The data collected on aggression from Football and

Handball players Inter-University level. The aim of the study is to “A STUDY AMONG

AGGRESSION OF FOOTBALL AND HANDBALL PLAYERS OF INTER-UNIVERSITY

LEVEL”. Then the data were analyzed with reference to the objectives and hypotheses by using

unpaired ‘t’ test with respect to aggression. The statistical significance was set at 5% level of

significance (p<0.05) and the results obtained thereby have been interpreted.

Hypothesis:

There is a no significant difference between Inter-University level players (Football and

Handball) with respect to their aggression.

To achieve this hypothesis, the t-test was applied and the results are presented in the

following table.

Table 2: Results of t-test between Football and Handball with respect to Aggression scores.

From the results of the above table, we clearly seen that, a significant difference was not observed

between Football and Handball with respect to Aggression scores (t=.055, p<0.05) at 0.05% level of

significance. Hence, the null hypothesis is accepted and alternative hypothesis is rejected. It means

that, the Football have significant higher Aggression scores (mean=23.6250) than Handball

(mean=20.8750). The mean and SD scores of Aggression is also presented in the following figure 1.

Summary, Discussion, Conclusion and Recommendation

SUMMARY

The purpose of the study was to find out the Aggression level of Inter-University Football

and Handball players.

In order the achieve the purpose of the study 80 selected men Football and Handball players only.

To assess the level of Aggression inventory question was used and the data were collected from

subjects.

Then the data was analyzed with reference to the objectives and hypotheses by using

independent t-test to find out the difference between Football and Handball by using SPSS V:

21.0.1 statistical software and the results obtained thereby have been interpreted.

DISCUSSION:

Football & Handball are similar games with one is having played with foot from one is
