A comparative study of personality of international volleyball players of Punjab and Haryana Punjab

The key goal was to look into the personalities of Punjab volleyball players. The research included all players from the Punjab and Haryana teams who competed in the FIVB Men's Volleyball World Championship in Pune in August 2009. The Cattell's 16 PF questionnaire was given to them the results were analyzed with the help of ‘t’ test which showed that there are significant differences found between Punjab n volleyball players and Haryana Volleyball players on seven factors but not on nine factors of 16 PF Questionnaire. Punjab n players scored high on factor ‘F’, factor ‘I’ and factor ‘M’ whereas Haryana players have scored high on factor ‘B’, factor ‘G’, factor ‘H’ and factor ‘L’. Punjab players scored low on Factor B which means that they tend to be slow to learn and grasp and they were dull as compared with Haryana team, and gives concrete and literal interpretation. This dullness simply represents poor functioning.
