Summary/Abstract: Along with acquiring of knowledge in the universities for a certain type of activities, the availability of qualities of each individual is of importance too – motor, psychic and personal. They are in the base for the successful sport career and professional realization. The significance of personal qualities has been established, both for sport and professional career of human being. For the labour activity, they are professionally significant. Such are the volitional qualities and the personal anxiety. We have directed to compare the level of development with students, dealing with basketball, in educational groups of the discipline „Physical education“ and in the representative basketball team at the UNWE, in the beginning of the educational year. As regards the variability with both indices (volitional qualities and personal anxiety), the coefficients of variation define the groups of students as comparatively homogeneous. The average values for both indices define the students as individuals of “strong will”. Statistically, reliable differences with comparison of the results have not been established and with both signs investigated. For establishing the influence of basketball game on these personal characteristics on both aggregates, it is recommended to repeat the study in the end of the educational year.
