Abstract | The current study sought to compare certain psychological factors, namely emotional maturity and locus of control, among different level of volleyball players. 60 male players aged 18–24 years from LNIPE, Gwalior, were deliberately selected and divided into two groups: national-level players and university-level players, with 30 individuals in each group. Emotional maturity was evaluated using the Emotional Maturity Scale (EMS) developed by Singh and Bhargava (1999), whereas the Locus of Control Scale created by Kumar and Srivastava (1985) was utilised to assess perceptions of internal and external control. An independent samples t-test was employed to analyse the data and ascertain differences between the groups. The results demonstrated that, despite national-level players achieving better scores in emotional maturity and locus of control, the differences were statistically insignificant at the 0.05 level. The findings indicate that involvement in competitive sports fosters psychological development at various levels, although does not markedly distinguish players either emotional maturity or locus of control. |
