The data for the study has been obtained by the survey made of ‘Emotion Requirement Scale’ which was taken by 224 students that are studying in Karabuk University School of Physical Education and Sports in the 2013-2014 school year. It is a descriptive study. In the ‘Approaching End’ the highest calculated averages in terms of emotion requirement were ‘Emotions help people keep up with life’ and ‘I think it is important for me to discover my emotions’ In the ‘Avoidance End’, the highest calculated averages were ‘When I experience strong emotions, I am sometimes scared of the things that I can do’ and ‘Staying away from emotional situations helps me sleep well at night’. It has been determined that there is a significant difference (p<0,05) in the opinions of the students on the emotion requirements when the person is of emotional personality.
