The purpose of the study was to find out the differences in psychological parameter, specifically altruistic behavior, among female baseball, softball, and cricket players. The survey method, using a questionnaire on emotional intelligence (Hyde et al., 2001), was employed to collect data for this research. Data were collected from ninety (N=90) female players in three groups: Group A (Baseball, n1=30), Group B (Softball, n2=30), and Group C (Cricket, n3=30), aged between 18-28 years. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16.0 was used for analysis. The differences in the means of each group for the selected parameter were tested for significance using One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). A significance level of 5% (p<0.05) was considered. The analysis revealed statistically significant differences in altruistic behavior among female baseball, softball, and cricket players.
