Abstract :This research was conducted to examine the socially responsible leadership insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SRL); perceptions of university students, which are thought to be directly related to social developments. The survey method, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the study. The sample consisted of 73 female and 134 male insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Age Mean: 22.19±3.307); students studying at the faculty of sports sciences. The “Socially Responsible Leadership Scale-SRL” developed by Tyree insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1998); and adapted to Turkish by Külekçi and Özgan insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2015); was used as a measurement tool. Descriptive statistics, t-test, and ANOVA were used in the analysis. It was found that students\` SRL perception was high. While the variables of gender, grade level, and taking social service course showed statistically significant differences, no statistically significant differences were found between other variables and sub-factors. It has been determined that as the age and grade level increase and the status of doing sports is positive, students\` perception of socially responsible leadership also increases. The results obtained in this research reveal the importance of education and sports. The fact that the courses given on socially responsible awareness in universities, the number of projects, and the positive situation of individuals doing sports make us think that university students are also effective in increasing their perception of socially responsible leadership, and it is expected that the research will contribute to socially responsible leadership studies in the field of sports sciences.
