The idea that sport should provide children and adolescents with an unwavering moral compass is commonly held, and is mirrored in the extensive list of personal and social benefits attributed to sport involvement. Numerous studies have reported that an athlete’s drug use in sport could be credited to a complex interaction of personal and environmental. Possible contributing environmental factors include attitudes of peer groups, parents, coaches, accessibility to drugs, and cultural norms and values. In the present paper researchers want to answer the query of: do doping attitude and behavior have any significant differences in the diverse levels of gender, competing level, and type of athlete? 160 elite athletes (120 males, 40 females) with the mean age of 22 (3.1) years who had activity records in Kick Boxing, O-Sport, Sumo, Wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing and Muay Thai were chosen by categorical sampling method and they filled questionnaires voluntary. ANOVA was used For measuring difference between athletes’ doping attitude and behavior and sport orientation. it realized that athletes’ professional situations did not predict the doping behavior, believe, attitude and winning orientation alternations, however, the athletes’ professional situations can predict competitiveness and goal orientation alternations of elite martial artists. And athletes’ diverse levels of competing did not predict the doping believe and attitude alternations, however, the athletes’ diverse levels of competing can predict doping behavior, competitiveness, winning and goal orientation alternations of elite martial artists.
