This study was carried out to examine the personality beliefs of licensed athletes according to those who do not do sports. The research group consisted of 311 participants aged 15 and over (154 licensed athletes and 157 non-sports). The licensed athletes participating in the study are the athletes prepared by Isparta Youth and Sports Provincial Directorate coaches for competitions. Participants who did not play sports were selected as similar to the group doing sports in age and gender. The Personal Information Form was used to determine the sociodemographic characteristics of the individuals participating in the study. SPSS 22.0 package program was used in the data analysis of the study. T test was used for the analysis of independent samples. As a result of the study, there were no significant differences in the personality belief sub-dimensions of paranoid, borderline, shy, dependent, passive-aggressive, antisocial, narcissistic, histrionic between licensed athletes and the non-sports group (p> 0.05), while schizoid and obsessive-compulsive personality belief sub-dimensions were significant differences (p <0.05).   Keywords: Personality; sports; personality beliefs; athletes;
