Abstract

This study aims to investigate martial art athletes' prosocial and antisocial behaviors (judo, taekwondo, and kickboxing) and determine the differences. The study group consists of a total of 394 athletes aged 14-23 from judo (n=94), taekwondo (n=150), and kickboxing (n=150), who were selected through purposive sampling among the athletes who participated in the tournaments held throughout Ankara and had various regional, national, or international degrees. The Prosocial and Antisocial Behavior in Sport Scale (PABSS), developed by Kavussanu and Boardley (2009) and translated into Turkish by Sezen Balçıkanlı (2013), was used to collect data. A t-test, one-way ANOVA analysis, and post-hoc Tukey test were conducted in the research analysis. As a result, it was found that the prosocial and antisocial behaviors of martial art athletes differed depending on the variables of gender, nationality, having practiced sports with a license for 6 years or longer, sports type, and educational status, but there was no significant difference in terms of age and belt level of athletes.
