The aim of this research is to respond to this question that “What is the relation of the customer mental image of sport shops with the customer’s purchase value?” Method: The research is practical from the goal perspective and is descriptive from the nature point of view and is survey from method perspective. Because the society’s population is unknown, the sample magnitude is more than 382 persons by using the Morgan table. (The Cronbach’s alpha of the whole relation is 0.937). Findings: The phantasm has a significant relation with the dimensions of the customer’s purchase value (customer’s awareness-the perceived quality, meanings associations, customer’s loyalty) equal to 0.544, 0.744, 0.544, 0.536 respectively. (The amount of R for the entire relation is 0.673). Concluding: The results of positive relation of the sport shops’ phantasm (including the aspects of: comfortability, perceived price, physical facilities, the employees’ services and institutionalized factors) with the customers’ purchase value shows that when selling a good to a customer, producers should prepare an environment that be acceptable for the customer qualitatively and quantitatively and create an indelible memory for the customers for ever of purchasing. In this case, not only the intended person turns to be your permanent customer but also he/she would encourage other potential customers to become your real customers.

The statistical population included 409 athletes. .The method of this research is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of correlation method. For descriptive analysis of the data, descriptive statistics were used and for deductive analysis of the data, the Cronbach's alpha coefficient (for determining the reliability of the components of the questionnaire), KMO, and Bright Bartlett (for determining the sampling adequacy), factor analysis of the main components (for determining the structural validity), and structural equations (for model testing) were used. The data collection tool was a 40-item questionnaire of Fry's Spiritual Leadership (2016), 56 questions of Chelladurai sports satisfaction (1998), and 58 questions of Scanlan's sports commitment (2015).Based on the results, spiritual leadership in both individual and team sports has a positive and significant relationship with sport commitment, sport satisfaction and efficiency. Also, in both individual and team sports, the presence of mediating variables gives better fit and Two variables of sense of membership and self-actualization have been introduced as the mediator of the spiritual leadership effect on these three variables. Spiritual Leadership Increases Attraction, Fitness, and Productivity In Team and Individual Sports.

The present study was conducted in 1397 and beginning of 1398 with the aim of investigating the effect of neural marketing on the purchasing behavior of sporty shoppers, considering the mediating role of brand enthusiasm and presenting the model. The statistical population of this research is all shoppers of sporting goods stores in Khorasan Razavi province, whose number is very high and uncertain. In this way, two-stage cluster sampling method was used to select 20 large stores in the city of Mashhad, Imam Khomeini and the main distribution center in Mashhad, and 10 stores in 10 provinces of the city. 384 questionnaires were distributed among the buyers. In this research, the researcher used three Iser et al. Marketing strategies (2011), a sudden consumer buying behavior (2016) and a passion for the brand Zyachevsky (1985). Nerve marketing has an indirect impact on the behavior of the buyers of sports brands through brand enthusiasm. The connection between the creation of a superior identity of sporting products in the minds of customers indicates that the brand name of a strong and credible brand of products can lead customers to use because the customer has this mental sense that the personality of the brand reflective and associate personality He is his own

The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether countries categorized as top Economic power have been dominant in Olympic events. In addition, the share of other countries in receivinging medal during Olympics would be considered in this paper. As it is important to assess the degree of competition and monopoly power in the economic markets, it is also important to study the degree of competition and the relative strength of countries in the Olympic Games.To fulfill the objectives of this study and to reply the related questions, k-firm concentration ratio, Entropy and Herfindhal-Hirschman indices are used as measures for assessing the monopoly power exercised in Olympic Games. The results indicate that the monopoly power is to some extent high, but has dropped over times.In other words, few countries had dominant powers, but over the years, their monopoly power has been declining, and the competitiveness of other countries has increased over times.Furthermore, the findings of this study indicate that there is a positive relationship between Human development index and the success rate of countries in the Olympic Games.

This research aimed to prioritize women management barriers in sports organizations by the method of Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). The present study is considered a combined research in terms of data collection and relations among variables and a functional research in terms of objectives. The research target population is composed of all experienced managers (with over 5 years of management experience) and professionals in the sports management (Faculty Members) that were 300 persons during the study (2014). First, women management barriers in sports organizations were recognized using interview with five professionals and experienced managers and by the method of theoretical saturation. Then, considering the results of the interview, a questionnaire was prepared by the method of Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and given to the respondents via simple stochastic distribution and 180 questionnaires were gathered according to Morgan Table. Reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed by 15 professionals of sports management. In this research, descriptive statistics was used to describe the variables and the research sample and then inferential statistical tests were used to review the research questions. Also SPSS, version 22, and Expert Choice 11.00 were used in this research. The findings indicate that the barriers of women presence in the managerial positions of sports organizations, lack of equal conditions between women and men to promote in organizations, and lack of trust in women in Iranian culture were the most items pointed by the respondents. Womenmanily mentioned cultural factor as the most effective component and men mentioned individual factor as the primary element of women management barriers. Paying more attention to cultural barriers and culture promotion via media will help women to contribute in the managerial affairs of sports organization alongside men.

The aim of present study was to identify barriers to use of information technology in physical education course of elementary schools. Hence, all of the physical educators and schools’ managers of Zarand, Kerman selected equally by statistical society (N= 180), and they responded to researcher made questionnaire of 5-point Likert including 34 questions. Contextual validity of questionnaire confirmed by sport management scholars, and its reliability resulted to (.91) by Chronbach alpha coefficient. In order to analysis data it is used exploratory factor analyze and Friedman test. Exploratory factor analysis results showed that, based on cumulative variance explanation of 69 percentage and with eliminating the five items, the 6 factors of human (6.87), facilities-equipment (6.11), technical (4.45), cultural (4.41), financial (2.75), and professional ability (2.24) identified, and each of those played important role for lack of information technology utility in sports of elementary schools (λ2= 198.55; P≤ .01). It seems that educational and confirmatory courses are in low level for physical educators because negative attitudes, traditional skills, knowledge, and teaching methods are the most important factors for lack of information technology utility in sports of elementary schools. Thus, as it is expected, in addition improving the facilities and adequate infrastructures, formatting the job design groups can probably be effective factor for attitudes changes of physical educators to wards information technology.
