We are examining this topic in Hungary as a pilot study - the attitudes towards doping – a comparison of athletes, non-athletes, and sport experts. We know for a fact that the use of performance enhancing drugs has been around for several hundred years, but there has not been any major research on the attitudes towards doping. So we compared opinions on doping use by not only comparing athletes, non-athletes, and sport experts opinions but also by the gender and age of the participants’ who filled out our survey forms. The aim of this study is to explore participants’ attitudes towards doping use in sport. We also looked into the psychosocial effect of performance enhancing drugs on athletes.

Keywords: doping, athletes, attitudes.
