Abstract

The aim of this
study is investigation of secondary school students’ attitudes toward violence
with physical education lessons’ sportspersonship behaviours according to
certain independent variables. A total of 209 (age= 12.18 ± 1.06) students, 108
females and 101 males, participated in the research. The data analysis included
descriptive statistics, T-test, Pearson moments multiplication correlation
analysis, and one-factor variance analysis (ANOVA). In the study analyses show
that secondary school sportspersonship levels are high and they are not
participate to attitudes toward violence. There is avoidant, low level,
meaningful relation between avoiding negative behaviours and attitudes toward
violence. In addition, students exhibiting Sportspersonship behaviours were
found to be higher than students who played in the school team, and students
who did not participate in the sport were more likely to avoid Sportspersonship
than students who were not active in the competition. As a result, it is
thought that educational institutions can help to reduce violence while
increasing the Sportspersonship behaviours by encouraging the orientation of
the students to the school teams in order to improve the Sportspersonship and
moral values of the students.
