Abstract

The researchers of this study aims to know about the role of passion and shyness in sports. For this purpose, the investigator had selected Forty (N=40) male inter-college level basketball and football players of 20 to 25 years of age to act as subjects. The purposive sampling technique was used to select the subjects. All the subjects, after having been informed about the objective and protocol of the study, gave their consent and volunteered to participate in this study. To measure the level of Passion was measured by applying Passion questionnaire developed by Vallerand et al., 2003 and Shyness was measured by applying Shyness questionnaire developed by Md. Rafi (2002). To determine the significant differences between basketball and football players, unpaired t-test was employed for data analyses. To test the hypothesis, the level of significance was set at 0.05. The results revealed insignificant difference with regard to variable passion and shyness between basketball and football players.
