Bačanac D. Životić M. Nikolić Violence and inappropriate behavior in sport attract the attention of the general public. It has been spoken and written a lot about this subject in the media, and different measures, as well as the broadest social actions, have been taken in order to eradicate it, or at least to reduce it significantly. The subject of this research is the perception of the severity of this problem by direct participants in sport (athletes, coaches, athletes’parents, journalists, officials, referees). By measuring the degree of agreement (justification) seven forms of unfair and inappropriate behavior and three attitudes toward the severity of violence and the role of the state in problem solving, we have found that sports journalists are most sensitive to violence in sporting contexts, because 93.5 % of them have agreed with the statement that violence is "a serious problem of our sport." This view is expressed by 85.3 % of the referees, 85.2 % of officials, 84.6% of coaches, 83.4 % of athletes’ parents, 64.1 % of older and 62.9 % of young athletes. The degree of justification and acceptance of various forms of misconduct and unsportsmanlike behavior expressed through index unsporting behavior, is the highest for older athletes (M = 17.71), followed by young athletes (M = 15.02), and the lowest for officials (M = 11.52), athletes’ parents (M = 11.95) and coaches (M = 12.03).
