Comparative Analysis of Selected Anthropometric Variables between Tribal and Non-Tribal Male Players of Himachal Pradesh: A Comparative Study of Anthropometric Variables in Tribal and Non-Tribal Male Players of Himachal Pradesh

Abstract

The present investigation has been led on 300 players with an expect to discover the distinction in chose anthropometric factors for example measurements between tribal (n=150) and non-tribal (n=150) male senior secondary school players of Himachal Pradesh. Tribal examples were taken from the two tribal areas for example Lahaul-Spiti and Kinnaur and two tribal tehsil for example Bharmour and Pangi of Chamba district in Himachal Pradesh. Non-tribal examples were taken from the three regions for example Hamirpur, Bilaspur and Una of Himachal Pradesh. Every player was tried for different distance across estimations important for estimation of humerus bicondylar breadth, wrist width, femur bicondylar measurement and lower leg breadth of tribal and non-tribal players. To break down the distinction in chose breadths of two gatherings of tribal and non-tribal players were resolved through ’t’ test. From the discoveries, it has been discovered that non-tribal players had essentially more noteworthy wrist breadth than tribal senior auxiliary school players. In humerus bicondylar breadth and femur bicondylar measurement tribal players had marginally more noteworthy mean an incentive than non-tribal senior auxiliary school players while in lower leg distance across non-tribal players had somewhat more prominent mean qualities than tribal players.
