Abstract:
The objective of this research was to assess the variation between Basketball and Football players on the variable Self-Esteem. A total of 40 male inter-college level subjects were selected from the various colleges of Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar. To measure the level of self-esteem of subjects for the present study, the Self-Esteem Inventory (SEI) developed by Prasad and Thakur (1988) was administered. Data was analysed by using independent t-test. Significant differences were found between the two groups on the variable Socially Perceived Self-Esteem and overall self-esteem. Hence, it can be concluded that Basketball players possess more Self-esteem than Football players.
