sports women (mean 9.06) as compared to non-sports women (mean 4.70) as the ‘t’ value obtained was -7.27 at p≤0.05. While
the self-concept and stress level were found higher among sports women (175. 73 & 2.80) as compared to non-sports women
(165.43 & 1.43) but this difference was not significant as the t values obtained were 1.86 and 1.88 respectively at p ≥ 0.05. The
