4.1 ANALYSIS OF THE DATA
The minimum and maximum scores obtained and also the range of scores
were calculated and presented in Table: 4.1 to 4.11. The complete data of
Kabaddi and Kho-Kho players were arranged in a way that mean and standard
deviation may be calculated and also the mean difference MD (m1 – m2) and
the calculation regarding ‘t’–test. Each independent variable of anthropometric
variables was tabulated. The tabulation was prepared for each physiological
and anthropometric variables separately. The calculations in connection with ‘t’
– test were also arranged for individual variable wise. The SPSS were followed
to calculate the ‘t’-test. The value of calculated ‘t’-test was compared with the
tabulated significant value at 0.05 and 0.01 level of confidence. The details for
comparative mean value and SD values of Kabaddi and Kho-Kho players were
tabulated and the values of ‘t’-test with various step values were also presented
from Table 4.1 to 4.11.
