Abstract

The purpose of the study was to examine the differences between state and central university coaches of India in their level of adjustment and emotional Intelligence. A random sample was selected from 42 different state and central recognized universities of India from different states. Two hypotheses for the study include ( 1) There is no significant difference in the adjustment of university coaches belonging to state and central universities of India and (2) There is no significantly difference in the Emotional intelligence of university coaches belonging to state and central universities of India. Tools employed were Saxena’s Adjustment Inventory and Mangal Emotional Intelligence Inventory that served as the main data sources. Critical Ratio was applied to get the results. It was observed that the mean scores of state university coaches in India (m = 52.4) was higher than the mean scores of central university coaches in India (m = 50.29) which further means that coaches belonging to state universities have better adjustment than the coaches belonging to central universities. It was also found that state and central university coaches did not differ significantly in their level of emotional-intelligence.
