Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to analyse the physiological variable among school students at different altitudes in Tamil Nadu. Forty five (n = 45) high school boys players of different sports were selected as subjects from different regions such as coastal, plain and high altitude at random. The age group of the subjects ranged between 14 and 18 years. Breath holding time was selected as the criterion variable and that was measured by using electronic stop watch. The collected data was statistically analysed by using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Scheffe's test was applied as a post hoc test to determine the significant differences between the mean. The result of the study showed that there was a significant difference (p ≤ 0.05) in breath holding time between the coast and high altitude and plain and high altitude. Results also showed that, the costal and plain altitude players are better in breath holding time than high altitude players.
