Abstract :

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine kinesthetic perception of high academic achievement group and high sports performance group and to compare with each other. Methodology: Thirty (N=30) young healthy boys were selected as subjects for the present study from North 24 Paraganas district of West Bengal. The age of the subjects were ranged from 16 to 22 years. They were selected randomly from a large population on the basis of the following two criterion i) The subjects for High Academic Achievement Group (HAAG) were selected on the basis they had at least 80% and above marks in Madhyamik examination (School Final, 10 grade) and ii) The subjects of High Sports Performance Group (HSPG) were selected on the basis that they had at least one state level participation in their respective events/game. Kinesthetic perception was the only variable studied in the project and it was measured by Shuffleboard Distance Perception test. T– Test were performed for justifying significance of means at p<0.05 level of confidence. For statistical calculations Excel Spread Sheet of windows version 7 was used. Results: It was found that kinesthetic perception between HAAG and HSPG were significantly different. It was also found that HAAG was significantly superior to HSPG.Conclusion: Participation in regular exercise and games & sports enhance kinesthetic perception.
