Association between physical fitness and frustration tolerance capacity of class XII students: A correlational research

Abstract

The objective of the present study was to examine the association between physical fitness with frustration tolerance capacity of class XII students. To conduct the study 80 male students studying in Class XII were selected. The sample was selected from government and private schools from Nagpur. Physical fitness of the subjects was assessed with the help of Cooper's JCR test while frustration tolerance was assessed by FRTO standardized by Rai (1988). To find the association between study variables Pearson correlation coefficient was computed. Analysis showed strong relationship between physical fitness and frustration tolerance capacity of male students from Class XII. It was concluded that ability of Class XII male students to cope with frustrating situations is related to their physical fitness hence physical fitness of class XI male students needs to be evaluated and taken care by effective physical education curriculum.
