Abstract: This study compares players at various competitive levels in order to examine the psychological characteristics of badminton players in the context of physical education. The investigation's main goal is to comprehend the psychological makeup of badminton players at the national, interuniversity, state, and intercollegiate levels. One of the variables being examined is sports hostility. Rigid statistical techniques were used by the researchers to guarantee the validity of the results. To determine if the data satisfied the assumptions needed for parametric testing, the first step was to perform a normality test using the Shapiro-Wilk test. Once the normal distribution of all variables was established, the mean and standard deviation of the gathered data were presented using descriptive statistics. Then, inferential statistics were used to investigate significant differences between the two player groups using a One-Way ANOVA test. The disparities in aggressiveness that were seen provide insight into the varied experiences that players have at various points in their professional careers. The findings indicate that there was a noteworthy distinction found between the various level shuttlers on the Sports Aggression Inventory. As a result, at the significance level of 0.05, the null hypothesis was rejected. The results have applications for trainers, coaches, and sports psychologists who deal with badminton players in addition to adding to our knowledge of psychological aspects in sports.
