We evaluated the impact of in group and individual eight-week exercise intervention on reducing state anxiety in students. Participants (M age = 20, 6; N = 51) were accidentally assigned to one of three groups: bodily fitness, and volleyball playing and control group. Classes met 1 hour, 3 days per week, for 8 weeks. State Anxiety scale by Spielberger et al. (1970) was administrated to the young people. Results were analyzed by variance analyze and it reveals that a reduction in state anxiety over the intervention. Volleyball participants as team exercise experienced the most benefits. This result reveals that group exercise is more effective than individual exercise in reducing the state anxiety.Keywords

This study investigated the influence of eight-week bodily fitness and aerobic exercise interventions on psychological health of youths. The first 52-persons from110 subjects who were more anxious than others were determined. Subjects (M age = 20.28, 6; N = 52) were randomly assigned to one of three groups: bodily fitness, and aerobic and non experimental group. Classes met 1 hour, 3 days per week, for 8 weeks. Trait Anxiety scale of Spielberger was used to the individual. Pre and post-test were used to the test and non experimental groups. Findings were analysed with ANOVA and it revealed decreases in trait anxiety over the intervention. Both groups benefited from the physical exercise intervention and there was no difference between the two groups. Physical exercise is of key importance to mitigating youth trait anxiety.Keywords

This study investigated the influence of eight-week volleyball game versus aerobic exercise interventions in mitigating of stress in the young people. The first 51 persons from 100 participates who had more stress score than others were determined. Participates (M age = 20.43, N = 51) were randomly assigned to one of three groups: volleyball program, aerobic and control group. Classes met 1 hour, 3 days per week, for 8 weeks. LC Stress inventory was used to the individuals. Pre and post-test were used to the experimental and control groups. Results were analysis with ANOVA and it revealed decreases in stress scores over the intervention. Both groups benefited from the physical exercise intervention and there was no difference between two experimental groups. These findings indicate that both type of the exercise can mitigate stress and that these result are not depend on the one of the two exercises.Keywords
