Abstract :Human aggression means different things to different people. Coercive behaviors are often used synonymously with aggressiveness in the sports world, political arena, and business community. This study aims to investigate whether there is a difference between aggression levels of swimmers and people who have a sedentary lifestyle. 141 young volunteers who all live in the city of Kahramanmaras participated in the study. Of them, 36 girls and 34 boys swimmers, and 34 girls and 37 boys don’t play sports. A 34-item Aggression Scale developed by Buss and Warren (2000) was used in the study to determine demographic information as well as levels of aggression. Results showed statistically significant difference between swimmers and sedentary\'s physical aggression, verbal aggression and hostile scores (p 0.05). The study has revealed that swimming sports reduce the level of aggression tendency. Also, it was determined that swimming reduces the level of aggression in young women and men.
