Demographic data in the study were collected with the personal information form prepared by the researcher. In order to measure the positive and negative attitudes of the students towards physical education and sports, the Attitude Scale towards Physical Education and Sports (BESİTO) developed by Deliceoğlu (2018) was used. The obtained data were evaluated in computer environment using SPSS 22.0 statistical program. Kolmogorov Smirnov test was performed to determine whether the data showed a normal distribution. Mann-Whitney U test was used for pairwise group comparisons, and Kruskal Wallis test was used for comparisons of three or more groups.
