The Cronbach's Alpha value of the scale was determined as .75, and the Cronbach Alpha values of the sub-dimensions of the scale were determined as .73 for “hatred towards the opponent” and .78 for “respect for the opponent”. In the study, t-test was used for independent groups in paired comparisons, one-way ANOVA test was used for multiple comparisons, and Tukey test was applied as post-hoc test to determine between which groups the difference was in multiple comparisons. No significant difference was found in the level of respect of football fans for the opposing view and their self-control levels according to the gender variable following the study. The difference was found to be significant according to the variables of age, supported team, and membership in fan associations. It is important to perform informative studies about hatred and respect in football for those who are members of fan associations.
