The research method was a descriptive survey and the research tools were the Minnesota Job Satisfaction Standard questionnaire (2009), Sims and Nicole (2014), and the Ghorbanizade Conscientiousness questionnaire (1395). The statistical population included physical education teachers at Kashan city (N=102), which statistical sample was considered as 69. In the inferential statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation and multiple regression (stepwise approach) were used. The most important findings of the research showed that the level of loafing and conscientiousness of teachers was favorable, but the level of job satisfaction was moderate. There was no significant difference between male and female teachers in terms of social loafing, conscientiousness and job satisfaction. In addition, according to the type of employment (formal and contractual), there was no significant difference between the loafing, conscientiousness and satisfaction. As a result, the promotion of career development’ opportunities and increased job satisfaction, leads to the participation of more and more physical education teachers in sports supplements activities.

The research method was descriptive-analytical. The statistical population of the study was all managers (senior, middle level and base managers) in sport federations with 700 people, who were selected 248 people by simple random sampling method. Research data collection tools included the Mahdieh and Karimi Marketing Philosophy Questionnaire (1395), Goldsson et al. (2012) competitive intelligence, and Lee and Park (2007) Integrated Marketing Communication. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed by 10 experts and their reliability in a pilot test with 30 subjects with Cronbach's alpha Obtained for the questionnaire of marketing philosophy 0.926, competitive intelligence 0.935 and integrated marketing communication 0.939. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods including structural equations, Pearson correlation coefficient and single sample t test using Spss, Amos software were used for data analysis. The research results showed that the results of Pearson correlation coefficient shows that there is a positive and significant relationship between research variables (p <0.05). The results also showed that integrated marketing communications (t = -4.766), competitive intelligence (t = -8.243) and marketing philosophy (t = -7.255) are not in good standing in sports federations. Given these results, it can be argued that sports federations need to value these approaches more and more in order to be successful in all areas.
