The aim of this research was to determine the level of values related to the subject of physical education and sport with self-reported personal and social responsibility behaviours in students studying in secondary school and to examine the relationship between them. For this purpose, this study, which was carried out with the participation of 1138 secondary school students from 13 different secondary schools in Balikesir/Turkey, was conducted with a multi-factor predictive correlational design. "Physical Education and Sports Lesson Value Scale" and "Personal and Social Responsibility Behaviours Scale" were used in collecting the data. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used in the analysis of the data. It was determined that students' values related to the subject of physical education and sport with their self-reported personal and social responsibility behaviours were at a high level. When the mean scores in the sub-dimensions of the scale of values related to the subject of physical education and sport are examined, it is seen that the most important values were considered to be awareness and respect, in that order, and that the values with the lowest mean scores were sports culture and national culture and unity. According to the results of multiple linear regression analysis, the values of respect, awareness, healthy life and nutrition, national culture and unity, solidarity, and sports culture explained 42 and 47% of the variance personal and social responsibility, respectively. As a result, it can be said that physical education and sport values are important variables in predicting the self-reported personal and social responsibility behaviours of secondary school students.
