| Zusammenfassung: | The aim of this study is to analyze the competitive dynamics between sports in terms of public visibility and to build up a symbolic map of Romanian sports‘ visibility. Using a quantitative approach, the study is based on a sample of 403 middle school and high school students. The results show a clear dominance of sport teams over individual ones and a strong masculinization tendency in referring to the most prominent Romanian sport disciplines and actors. Moreover, the visibility of a sport influences students‘ perception over its performance level, which generates an overestimation of the achievements related to the most popular sports. |
