The scale of the aggression and Empathic tendency scale for non-parametric tests, Mann Whitney U test for binary comparisons is the significance level used is 0.01 and 0.05 level has been tested. When considering the findings it was discovered that according to the gender the destructive aggression and passive aggression levels of the women regardless to their sport educations were significantly higher. Again in terms of gender variable woman who do not get education of sport empathic tendency levels are more higher than man who do not get education of sport.

Veri toplama aracı olarak araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen “Kişisel Bilgi Formu”, Kiper (1984) tarafından geliştirilen ‘‘Saldırganlık Ölçeği’’ ve Dökmen (1988) tarafından geliştirilen ‘‘Empatik Eğilim Ölçeği’’ kullanılmıştır. Katılımcıların saldırganlık ve empatik eğilim düzeyleri, spor yapıp-yapmama ve cinsiyet değişkenleri açısından mukayese edilmiştir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, 2013-2014 Eğitim-Öğretim yılında Mustafa Kemal Üniversitesinde öğrenim gören 254’ü  kadın, 281’i erkek olmak üzere toplamda 535 katılımcı oluşturmaktadır. Saldırganlık ölçeği ve Empatik eğilim ölçeklerine yönelik non-parametrik testlerden ikili karşılaştırmalar için Mann Whitney U Testi kullanılmış olup anlamlılık düzeyi 0.01 ve 0.05 düzeyinde sınanmıştır.  Bulgulara bakıldığında katılımcıların cinsiyet değişkenine göre spor eğitimi alan ve almayan kadınların, Yıkıcı saldırganlık ve Edilgen saldırganlık düzeylerinin anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu bulgulanmıştır. Yine cinsiyet değişkeni açısından spor eğitimi almayan kadınların, spor eğitimi almayan erkeklere oranla empatik eğilim düzeylerinin anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir  Sonuç olarak; bu çalışmanın katılımcıları açısından spor yapma durumlarına göre, cinsiyet değişkeninin genel manada saldırganlık ve empatik eğilim düzeylerini değiştirmede belirleyici bir değişken olmadığı, bunun yanı sıra bazı alt boyutlarda spor yapmanın etken olduğu söylenebilir.
