A Comparative Analysis of Aggression Levels among Female National Volleyball and Netball Players: Study in Sri Lanka
Subject area: Physical Sciences and Environment · Area of research: Sports Science
Abstract
A crucial psychological component of improving athletic performance is aggression, especially in invasion sports. The purpose of this study was to examine the degree of violence displayed by Sri Lankan female national netball and volleyball players. This research comprised fifteen female volleyball players and ten female netball players from the national teams. A systematic, standardized questionnaire was used to gather the data, and SPSS statistical analysis was used to analyze the results. The data were analyzed using a two-sample t-test and descriptive statistics. According to the study, the mean aggressiveness scores for the two national teams were 84.06 and 88.9, respectively. The female national team netball and volleyball players did not significantly differ in their levels of hostility, according to the research (p-value = 0.577). The study found that both teams' levels of aggressiveness were good, and there was no discernible difference in the levels of aggression among Sri Lanka's female national netball and volleyball players. The results highlight the significance of examining the psychological circumstances of athletes and putting methods in place to maximize player psychology for improved athletic performance.
