For the analysis of data following Statistical Techniques are applied for the analysis of the data of values such as Mean, Standard deviation, S.ED and t-Value. The obtain data is submitted to further statistical analysis. The investigator has followed the shortcut method for computing the mean. The formula is given below: Mean = Where,

= Total sum of the score

N = Total no of students

Standard Deviation ( W ) =

x
N

x = Deviation from each score from the mean N = Total no. of the score Standard error of mean  Significance of mean M1.96 M2.58 at 5% level of confidence at 1% level of confidence
