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.

All the first -rate football players in Iraq participated in the statistical example, and eventually 150 responded to the questionnaires and were considered as the sample. Eight of 8 professors of sports management will be asked to measure the validity of the questionnaires. The reliability of the questionnaires was also calculated through the Cronbach's alpha coefficient, all above 0.7. Data analysis will be made using SPSS25 software and PLS 2 software. The results of the model indicated that the leadership style had a direct, positive and meaningful relationship with moral decision -making; Also, leadership style has a direct, positive and meaningful relationship with team satisfaction, plus leadership style is direct, positive and meaningful to the moral atmosphere, on the one hand the leadership style plays a mediator in ethical decision -making and team satisfaction. And team satisfaction plays a mediator. It is important to note that coaches in professional football often strive to define and train players about ethics, which can prevent ethical decision -making. Therefore, it is very important for coaches to be aware of their leadership style and actively promote ethical behavior and ethical development among footballers.

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

Among the victims of the imposed war, the veterans have a special place as lasting symbols of the discourse of sacrifice and martyrdom and one of the most important of them is the cultural concern of veterans and the challenges related to it. Therefore the aim of this research was to standardize the cultural humility questionnaire in Khorasan Razavi sports veterans. The survey research method is of the structural equation type, which was implemented in the field. The statistical population of this research was the veteran athletes of Razavi Khorasan (N=800), from whom 235 questionnaires were collected in the form of available sampling. In order to collect data, the cultural humility questionnaire made by Gonzalez et al. (2020) was used, which consisted of 15 questions. In order to analyze the data, descriptive indices and statistical tests of Cronbach's alpha coefficient, McDonald's omega coefficient, theta coefficient, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used in SPSS, Lisrel and Stata statistical software. The results showed the reliability of the questionnaire (α=0.836, Ω=0.876, θ=0.902). Regarding construct validity and based on the amount of relationships and significance level, all the questions had a significant relationship with the components and were able to be a good predictor for their factor. The ratios of X2 to df are equal to 1.47 and (RMSEA) which is equal to 0.035, so the model has the necessary fit. Also, the indices of NFI=1.00, CFI=1.00, GFI=0.99, AGFI=0.97 and IFI=1.00 confirmed the fit of the model. Regarding the relationships of the components with the concept of cultural humility, the results showed that all five components could be a good predictor for the concept in question.

Toxic organizational climate is actually a type of organizational disease and condition that, if persistent and stable, can have negative consequences for the organization. The aim of this study was to determine the factors influencing the creation of a toxic organizational atmosphere in the sports organazations (sport and youth offices of East Azarbaijan Province). The current research is a survey research in terms of practical purpose and in terms of data access method. The statistical population consisted of all managers, deputies, experts and employees of sports and youth offices of East Azarbaijan province in 1401 (N=293). 166 people were selected and participated in the research with the help of Morgan's table and by simple random method and with the help of Morgan's table. To collect data, a researcher-made questionnaire was used, which was designed by using and modifying the rural questionnaire (2014). The face and content validity of the questionnaire was checked and confirmed by 8 sports management professors. Cronbach's alpha method was also used to evaluate reliability. In this research, data analysis was investigated using SPSS and Smart PLS software. The results of the study of the structural model of the research showed that the factors of toxic job structure and toxic leadership have a significant role (P<0.001) in creating a toxic organizational atmosphere. Interpersonal relationships and toxic service reward and compensation system play a significant role (P<0.05) in creating a toxic organizational atmosphere, but the toxic physical structure does not have a significant role in creating a toxic atmosphere (P<0.05). . Based on the results, factors such as: job structure, management style, type of interpersonal relationships and reward and compensation system should be such that the employees perceive the atmosphere of sports organizations as non-poisonous, so that the organization's intention in supporting and valuing be revealed to the employees and the organization can use the full potential of its employees and it becomes easier to achieve the goals of the organization.

A B S T R A C TThe purpose of this research was to Codification a Model of building resilience and reducing job stress based on physical empowerment of teachers. A qualitative research method was chosen with a systematic exploratory approach (thematic analysis). The statistical population of the research included two parts of human resources (managers and experts of the general education departments, managers and assistants of schools, school teachers and university professors related to educational sports and schools) 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 33 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 merit, legal and scientific validity of the sample, experts' opinion and agreement between the correctors. In order to analyze the findings, a multi-stage conceptual coding method (open, selective and thematic) with thematic analysis approach was used. The final conceptual framework included 60 components, 21 dimensions, 9 perspectives and 3 levels identified. Levels and perspectives, in the order of effectiveness-reactivity between the variables in their subset, including antecedent level (occupational capacity, individual capacity, organizational capacity), central level (physical empowerment, occupational resilience, reduction of occupational stress) and consequential level (consequence and individual results, consequence and occupational results, consequence and organizational results). Based on the findings of the research, it can be said that changing the attitude and behavior towards physical activity is the basis of achieving resilience and reducing occupational stress, that is why there are programs to improve the place of sports and physical activities in the daily programs of teachers and changing the attitude of teachers. It is very important to pay attention to sports and physical activity.
