Abstract:
Depression has its own complex and it's variety of shape and reactions. Psychology researcher yet could not come up with an absolute discovery of causes, treatment, and recovery of disease. The study focused on to find out the depression level among the tribal and non-tribal football players of Tripura. To fulfil the purpose two hundred (200) male soccer players from different community i.e., 100 tribal and 100 non-tribal players were randomly selected. Depression was measured by Goldberg Depression Questionnaire (GDQ) constructed by Ivan Goldberg and used it to collect the data. To see the differences between the groups, independent t-test was employed and level of significance was chosen at 0.05. The mean value of tribal soccer players’ on depression has been found 25.6 whereas the non-tribal players mean value has been found 30.37 respectively. The result of t-test demonstrated that the difference between the mean values of depression of tribal and non-tribal soccer players was found significant. The individual differences and experiences are important structure to tolerate the stress level.
