The age of the subjects were ranged from 18 to25 years. The selected subjects were divided into two equal groups, each group consisted of twenty subjects, in which group- I (n = 20) underwent Yoga and group – II (n = 25) acted as control, which did not participate in any special activities apart from their regular curricular activities. Yoga practices were conducted five days (Monday to Friday) per week for twelve weeks. The aggression was assessed by smith questionnaire and it was recorded in numbers, anxiety was assessed by Spielbergers questionnaire and it was recorded in numbers and achievement motivation was assessed by Kamlesh questionnaire and it was recorded in numbers. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was applied to find out the significant difference if any, among the experimental groups and control group on selected criterion variables separately. In all the cases, .05 level of confidence was fixed to test the significance, which was considered as appropriate.
