Objective: This study aimed to design a success path model for Iranian football instructors in international coaching courses to identify key success factors.Methods: The research employed an exploratory mixed (qualitative-quantitative) and field developmental approach. In the qualitative phase, grounded theory was used, with 15 experts selected via purposive and snowball sampling for semi-structured interviews. In the quantitative phase, 260 football instructors and international coaches were sampled through simple stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire, with confirmed validity and reliability.Findings: The success path model comprises three main dimensions: technical competence (technical knowledge, experience, continuous learning), interpersonal skills (leadership, cultural understanding, effective communication), and a supportive environment (infrastructure, networking, commitment).Conclusion: Achieving success for Iranian football instructors in international coaching courses requires enhancing technical competence, interpersonal skills, and fostering a supportive environment. The absence of any of these pillars poses challenges to goal attainment. This model can guide policymakers and coaches in elevating Iranian football coaching standards.

The decline in the number of football referees in many countries in recent years has emerged as a significant challenge in the governance of football, highlighting the critical need for the development and advancement of refereeing. This study aimed to identify and analyze the factors influencing the advancement of football refereeing in Iran. Employing an exploratory mixed-methods approach, the research was conducted in two phases: qualitative and quantitative. In the qualitative phase, eighteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with refereeing experts until theoretical saturation was reached. Based on the findings of this phase, a researcher-made questionnaire was developed, and its face and content validity were confirmed. The Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy was 0.866, indicating the suitability of the sample for factor analysis. In the quantitative phase, the questionnaire was distributed among all active referees and assistant referees participating in the Premier League, Asian competitions, and the World Cup (n = 110). The results revealed twelve principal factors significantly affecting the advancement of football refereeing in Iran: physical fitness, knowledge and awareness, the structure of the federation and provincial football associations, personality traits, perceptual–motor characteristics, family, occupation and profession, clubs and fan associations, media, anthropometric indicators and physical health, psychological skills, and the disciplinary system. The findings suggest that the systematic development of these factors can facilitate the improvement of Iranian referees’ performance at both national and international levels. Accordingly, it is recommended that football federation officials, refereeing committees, and provincial organizations incorporate these indicators into their policy-making and training programs.

The objective of this research was to explore the strategic forecasting of AI drivers in the sports industry. This research is considered applied and exploratory in terms of its objective and nature, utilizing new methods in futures studies and analytical-exploratory analysis through the use of mutual effects analysis. The statistical population consisted of two parts: informational resources (relevant research articles) and human resources (AI experts, sports industry experts, and university professors). The sampling method employed was purposive in both the informational and human resource sections. In the informational resource section, 18 studies were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, while in the human resource section, 18 individuals were chosen based on four criteria: work experience, educational background (bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees), diversity, and collaboration capability. The data collection tools included checklists, questionnaires, and 27x27 dimensional matrices. To assess the validity and reliability of the results, strategies such as credibility, confirmability, process audit study, two-round Delphi method, face validity, and calculation of the coefficient of reliability using the summarization method (split-half technique) were employed. Content analysis was used to analyze the review of resources and expert opinions, followed by Delphi analysis and mutual effects analysis. The results indicated the presence of 27 key drivers in the future of AI in the sports industry, among which five drivers (occupational transformation, investment, expansion scope of AI, readiness for AI technology adoption, and infrastructure and equipment) were identified as constructive drivers of the future of AI in the sports industry. These results suggest that the transformative alternatives of AI in the sports industry encompass a spectrum of factors that are likely to undergo changes in the near future.

A B S T R A C TThis research is designed and conducted to examine the impact of organizational culture on good governance in sports and youth departments, taking into account the mediating role of organizational structure. This study is descriptive and applied, and it employs a survey approach for data collection. The statistical population of this research includes all employees of sports and youth departments in the southeastern provinces of Iran (497 individuals). A census sampling method was employed. In this study, standardized questionnaires were utilized to measure the main variables. The face and content validity of the questionnaires were assessed and confirmed by six sports management professors, while construct validity was established through first and second-order factor analysis. To examine the reliability of the instruments, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used, yielding values greater than 0.70 for all variables, thus confirming their reliability. For data analysis, structural equation modeling was employed using the PLS Smart software. The results indicated that organizational structure, as an influential factor, has an impact coefficient of 0.331, while organizational culture has an impact coefficient of 0.712 on good governance. Furthermore, the Sobel test results confirmed the mediating role of organizational structure in the relationship between organizational culture and governance. These findings suggest that improving good governance in sports and youth departments is critically dependent on the development of effective organizational culture and structures. Therefore, promoting an organizational culture that emphasizes collaboration, transparency, and accountability can enhance decision-making processes and ultimately improve the quality of governance

With the global promotion of football as a popular sport, the study of football fans has attracted more attention as a research field. The present study aimed to examine and determine the factors influencing the formation of club football fans' identification. This research, using the Psychological Continuum Model, seeks to comprehensively investigate all factors affecting the identification formation of Iranian football club fans. For this purpose, semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 27 football fans. Given the qualitative approach of the present research and the use of content analysis, coding was performed at three levels, including open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. Ultimately, 17 unique categories emerged as influential factors on fan identification in the four-level Psychological Continuum Model. These factors at the awareness level included team identity card, sociability factors, media, place and geography, football engagement, football leisure time, and demographic factors. The influential factors at the attraction level comprised football competitive elements, personal inclinations, and collectivism and social integration. Professional club factors, fan technicality, economic participation, and emotional involvement were influential at the attachment level, and ultimately, the loyalty phase included team-centered elements, football insight, and football culture. The present research demonstrated that most influential factors on identification formation occur at the awareness level and as fans move towards the loyalty level within the Psychological Continuum Model, the number of influential factors decreases, while the specialized football inclination increases.

Modern sports organizations seek to share information and knowledge management and ignoring self-censorship in these organizations can be problematic. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of identifying the factors affecting human resource self-censorship and solutions to reduce it in governmental sports organizations. This research is of an applied, qualitative, and field-library type with a thematic analysis strategy using the Atride-Stirling (2001) approach. The participants in the present study were university professors of sports management and human resource management, heads of the general departments of sports and youth in provincial centers and heads of sports federations, 18 of whom were selected using a purposeful and snowball method and according to the principle of theoretical saturation. The data collection tool was a semi-structured in-depth interview and in order to analyze the data, three-stage coding of thematic analysis was used. The results of the study showed that the factors affecting self-censorship of human resources in sports organizations include individual factors, managerial factors, organizational factors and supra-organizational factors and the solutions to reduce it include improving human resource knowledge, promoting a spirit of collaboration, making managers pay attention to insecurities, providing incentives to human resources, combating flattery and correcting faulty organizational practices. Therefore, managers of sports organizations can, by considering the effective factors and applying the solutions provided, provide the necessary basis for reducing self-censorship of human resources in sports organizations, benefit from all the knowledge capacities of these valuable resources and promote their active and honest participation in sports organizations.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the causal indicators affecting lean management in sports in the country. This research was a combination of quantitative and qualitative. In the qualitative part, it was based on the model of Glaser, Strauss and Corbin. The data collection tool was semi-structured in the qualitative part of open interviews and a questionnaire in the quantitative part. The number of samples in a small part was estimated at 384 due to the large size of the population, which was government sports organizations, and taking into account the total population of Iran. In the qualitative part, the sampling method was based on theoretical saturation and in the elite group, the sample was performed as a snowball. The interviews were coded in three stages: open coding, axial coding, and selective coding, and finally, 22 coded codes were classified into four selective codes: high inflation, budget reduction, need for new staff, and high organization in sports. Hierarchical analysis showed that high inflation with a normalized score (0.553) is the most important factor, in the second place of budget reduction with a normalized score of 0.249 and in the third place a highly organized variable in sport with a normalized final score of 0.134 and in The fourth rank was the need for a new force with a normalized final score of 0.064. Given that there are many changes and it is not possible to make accurate predictions about the future, so the control of costs and fashions in the country's sports should be controlled as much as possible to witness its growth and development.

The aim of the research was to design a model of indicators affecting the life expectancy of elderly athletes. The current research was applied in terms of purpose, in terms of survey method. The statistical population of the research in the quantitative part included elderly athletes who were selected based on Crookran's formula in the number of 385 people. The research tool included a researcher-made questionnaire, which was analyzed with Imus software. Based on the findings, health-oriented lifestyle, the place of sports for the elderly and social marketing in sports for the elderly each have an effect on the life expectancy of the elderly by 0.26, 0.37 and 0.33, respectively. Also, the results of investigating the mediating role of the social marketing variable in elderly sports showed that this variable has a partial mediating role and also has a simple model (a mediating variable) with a significant focus on the direct path of the health-oriented lifestyle of the elderly and the place of elderly sports on the life expectancy of the elderly. Have been, and its effect coefficient is 0.159 and 0.123. Therefore, it can be concluded that the life expectancy of the elderly is affected by the mentioned indicators, and if we are looking to increase the life expectancy among the strata, we must implement various strategic and operational policies in line with the implementation of a health-oriented lifestyle, the place of sports for the elderly and apply social marketing in elderly sports.

the purpose of this research was to develop a model of factors affecting customers' behavior in buying sportswear from online stores. The qualitative research method was chosen with the grounded theory approach. The statistical population of the research included two parts of human resources (managers of online stores, online marketers, and expert professors in the field of digital marketing) and information sources (scientific, library, and relevant and reliable media). Sufficient number of interviewees and information sources were selected purposefully and based on reaching theoretical saturation (18 people and 25 documents). The research tool included semi-structured exploratory interviews along with a systematic library study. The validity of the tool was evaluated and confirmed based on the practical and scientific merit of the sample, the opinion of experts and the agreement between the correctors. In order to analyze the findings, a multi-stage conceptual coding method (open, central and selective) was used with the foundation's data theory approach. The final conceptual framework included 59 components, 11 dimensions and 5 themes identified. Its themes and dimensions include addiction to online shopping (dimensions of addictive shopping behavior and pleasurable shopping), quality (dimensions of website quality, product quality and service quality), ease and cost-effectiveness of shopping (dimensions of ease and time saving and ease purchase), advertising (dimensions of product advertising and word-of-mouth advertising) and trust (dimensions of site credibility and sense of security). Based on the findings of the research, it can be said that the tendency of customers to buy sportswear from online stores can be influenced by individual factors, and paying attention to this issue can make sports stores more distinctive in attracting customers and consumers in the virtual space compared to other competitors

The aim of this study was structural interpretive modeling of the sustainable development of sports destinations with an emphasis on tourists' behavior. The method of this research is mixed. The participants of this research were experts. The criteria for selecting experts in the qualitative section was theoretical saturation, and 17 people were selected using the purposeful sampling method and snowball strategy, then the people identified in the qualitative section were used for structural-interpretive analysis in the quantitative section. The data collection tool in the qualitative part was a semi-structured interview, and in the quantitative part, it was a 9x9 square matrix. For the validity and reliability of the results, the strategies of believability, transferability, verifiability, process audit study and intra-subject agreement of two coders were used. Qualitative data analysis was done with two stages of initial coding and focused coding, and quantitative data analysis was done with interpretive structural modeling and Mick Mac analysis. The findings showed 9 behaviors compatible with the sustainable development of sports destinations, based on the interpretive structural analysis, the relationship between the behaviors was categorized into 5 levels, and based on that, a hierarchical relationship model was created that shows the sustainable development of sports destinations through the reduction of resource consumption. And prevention of distortions of local culture can be predicted.
