Abstract
Social comparison can be defined as the process by which an individual compares himself/herself with others in order to get an idea about himself/herself or maintain such an idea. The purpose of this study was to investigate social comparison levels of secondary and high school students who regularly do sports. For this purpose, the Social Comparison Scale was used. A total of 323 secondary and high school students volunteered to participate in the study. In the study, data was using the SPSS 16 software package and Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests were applied to determine significant differences (α = 0.05). As a result, it was determined that the students’ purpose in doing sports affects their social comparison levels (p <0.05), whereas gender, selected sports branch and whether they actively participate in recreational activities have no effect on social comparison levels (p> 0.05).
