2.There was a significant difference on the degree of “Need for Achievement” motive among students of different grades.
3.There was no significant difference on the degree of any constraint factor among students of different background variables.
4.There were significant differences on the degree of participating motives among students categorized by selected variables.
5.There was a significant difference on the degree of overall constraints among students with different days attending dance sport classes.
