Read the passage and answer the questions :
The concept of variable is utmost importance in researches done in the field of sports psychology. In the sports psychology research variables can be classified in several ways. Eminent psychologist Edward has classified variables in three types – Stimuls variables, behavioural variables and organismic variables. From another perspective variables have been classified into two types – the continuous variables and discrete variables. The discrete variables
are further classified as real discrete variables and artificially discrete variables.
The variables in research can be defined in various ways, the two common types of definitions being – constitutive definitions and operational definitions. The operationalization of variables is crucial importance in carrying out actual research. The tentative statements of expected relationship between two or more variables are called hypothesis. Needless to say that hypothesis is a statement temporally accepted as true in the light of what is at the time known about a phenomenon and it is employed as a basis for action in the search of new truth. Research hypothesis have been classified into Null Hypothesis (H0) and Experimental Hypothesis (H1). The Experimental Hypothesis is further classified into positive and negative hypothesis. For testing a Hypothesis use of appropriate statistical technique is very essential.
