Abstract:The research conducted in this study delves into the psychological aspects of badminton players within the realm of physical education, specifically comparing individuals across different competitive levels. The focus of the investigation lies in understanding the psychological profiles of national and state level male badminton player. The variables under scrutiny include anxiety and mindful attention awareness. To ensure the validity of the findings, the researchers employed rigorous statistical methods. The initial step involved conducting a normality test using the Shapiro-Wilk test to ascertain whether the data met the assumptions required for parametric tests. Upon confirming normal distribution for all variables, descriptive statistics were applied to present the mean and standard deviation of the collected data. Subsequently, inferential statistics were employed, utilizing an independent t-test to investigate significant differences among the two player groups. The observed differences in anxiety and mindful attention awareness shed light on the varying experience by players at different stages of their competitive journey. The results shows that there was a significant difference obtained between nation and state level shuttles for anxiety and mindful attention awareness scale. Thus, the null hypothesis was rejected at 0.05 level of significance. The findings not only contribute to the understanding of psychological factors in sports but also have practical implications for coaches, trainers, and sports psychologists working with badminton players.
