The study group was constituted by the 264 high school sportspeople, being 140 involved with futsal, 124 with football, doing sports as amateurs. In identifying the fair-play behaviors, The Fair Play Scale in Physical Education and Sport, developed by Hassandra et al. (2002) and adapted to Turkish by Mirzaoglu (2015) was used to collect data. The scale has four subscales including 15 items. The scale consists of the factors of respect for teammates, cheating, respect for conventions, and sportsperson ship. The scale is the Likert type (1=Never, 2=Rarely, 3=Sometimes, 4=Often, 5=Always). Conducting the works on the diagnostic statistics of the data obtained, their variance and homogeneousness were tested and Independent Samples t test was used in pairwise comparisons and One-Way Anova test was used in multiple comparisons. No statistical alteration was determined in line with the age and year factor, in which they perform sports. No statistical difference was observed in the categories of respect for teammates and cheating. The statistical change in the categories of respect for conventions and undeserved winning was found to be statistically significant (table 1; p<0.05). Statistically significant changes were observed in the fair play behaviors in view of the gender factor as well (table 2; p<0.05). In the light of this study, it was determined that </span> <span style="font-size:18px;">  </span> <span style="font-size:18px;">more positive values were found in the fair-play behaviors of futsal players than football players, in female sportspeople than male sportspeople, female futsal players than female football players. It is considered that such situation depends on the certain structures of sportive branches in addition to the physical and psychological factors specific to males and females. </span> </span> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>}, number={1}, publisher={Spor Bilimleri Derneği}
