The research is designed in scanning model. 214 students studying at Süleyman Demirel and Mersin University Faculty of Sport Sciences participated in the study on a voluntary basis. Fair Behavior Scale developed by Güleç (2018) was used as the data collection tool. A statistical analysis program was used for the analysis of the data obtained. As a result of the normality test, it was determined that the data were not distributed normally, and accordingly, Mann Whitney U test for paired comparisons and Kruskall Wallis test for multiple comparisons were analyzed. Post-Hoc Tamhane's T2 test was conducted to determine among which variables the significant difference detected in multiple comparisons. According to the findings obtained from the analysis, a statistically significant difference was found among the variables of gender, age, university, department, class, branch and place of birth and grew up in terms of tendencies to show fair behavior. As a result, in this study, it was observed that there was a difference between the tendencies of students studying at sports science faculties of universities to show fair behavior.
