Abstract
The purpose of present study was to compare self efficacy, mental health and attitude towards androgynization of roles of sports women and non-sports women. Data was collected from 50 young females actively involved in sports and 50 not involved in sports. The age range of the females selected for the study was 19 to 22 years. Results indicated that sports women and non-sports women do not significantly differ with respect to self-efficacy. A key finding of the study was that mental health of the females who were playing sports was better than those not playing sports. The attitude of sports women towards androgynization of roles was poorer as compared to those of non-sports women.
