The main purpose of this study was to investigate of the effect of physical activity on the ethical behaviors of medical students of the University of Medical Sciences: the role of mediator in the use of social networks and individual attitudes about their physical image. The research was descriptive-correlational, and an applied research that was done field-by-field. The statistical population was all students of Tehran University of Medical Sciences. In order to estimate the sample size, Morgan table was used and the sample size was estimated to be 300. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect data. The content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by the experts (15 professors of sports management). The reliability of the questionnaire was also reported using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient (physical activity: 0.85, moral behaviors: 0.81, social networking: 0.86 and individual attitude about body image: 0.83). The validity of the validation structure of the questionnaire was also accomplished through analysis of the main components with the varimax rotation. Data analysis was performed using software, Spss version 25 and Amos version 23. The results of the findings indicate that the use of social network variables cannot play a mediator role. Also, the results showed that the individual's attitude about his physical image could have a mediating role. It can be concluded from the results that if students have regular exercise activities, their attitude toward their physical image has increased and this will lead to self-esteem and students will show positive moral behaviors.

The main purpose of this study was to identify the effective factors of sports entrepreneurship in Iran. The type of research was fundamental and qualitative. The statistical population consisted of 16 different experts. Sampling was performed using purposive sampling method. To collect data in this study, theoretical foundations were used first and because the topics were not enough, semi-structured interviews were used. In this study, qualitative analysis approaches including open, axial and selective coding were used to analyze the research findings. The results of open coding indicated that 110 initial codes were obtained from the analysis of interviews and documents. The results of axial coding showed that 15 categories were obtained from this coding. Finally, the findings of selective coding included 4 concepts (inhibitory factors, facilitating factors, developmental factors and consequences). The results of the codings showed that the sports entrepreneurship program in Iran is based on various factors. Therefore, when the mechanism of action of these factors is properly identified and diagnosed, we can see the growth and development of sports entrepreneurship program in Iran. Considering these cases, a bright future can be imagined for the sports entrepreneurship program in Iran. Since, from the experts' point of view, the lack of communication between universities and production and industrial centers is considered as one of the important factors. It is suggested that the necessary measures be taken to establish a favorable relationship between the university and industry through the proper education of students in accordance with the needs of industry.

This study was designed to conduct a comparative study of strategies for promotion of physical activity in older adults in selected countries and to provide practical strategies in Iran. It is a comparative study with a qualitative strategy. Data have been collected with the technique of documenting using the documents, instructions, articles, research projects and Internet resources in selected countries (USA, Canada, Finland, UK and Japan) and analyzed with Brady's comparative model in four stages. Based on four individual, social, organizational and environmental factors, detailed and valid information of these countries, strategies and practical actions for implementation in Iran were provided. Promoting health literacy, providing access, institutionalizing of older adults’ physical activity, promoting a public culture for older adults’ physical activity , supporting promotion strategies, support and social participation, community acceptance, dual deprivation/benefit, the participation of public and private institutions, the development of macro-management plans, the integration of traditional / modern dual programs, etc. were found . Using the balanced generalizability method, some tactics and practical extraction measures of countries were used as strategies to promote aging sports in Iran. It seems necessary to design and implement a national program and guidelines for aging sports and promote it in our country, which in the coming years will become a country with a large population of older adults.

recent decades, the sports industry, as one of the new industries, has played a productive role in the international economy and has been more effective for macroeconomic investments for any country.The relative advantage of sports goods is one of the above. To determine the most important business partners of Iran, the commercial share of countries in the field of sports goods during 5 years was used. Then, using the Revealed symmetric comparative advantage index, Lafay, Balasa (export) and Proudman and Reading index, the comparative advantage of each country was examined. On average, Bulgaria and Austria had the highest competitive advantage in the export of boats, China in the export of shoes, clothing and miscellaneous goods, and Germany in the export of boats and sporting rifles, based on the Balasa index and the Revealed symmetric comparative advantage. The Proudman and Reading indices also showed that Indonesia had the highest competitive advantage in footwear exports, Iran in clothing exports, the Netherlands in boat exports, Germany in arms exports, and Korea in exporting miscellaneous goods.

The purpose of this study was to The mediating effect of service quality on the relationship between market orientation and business performance of private sports venues. The present study is applied in terms of descriptive-correlational nature. The statistical population of the study was all managers, coaches and graduates of sports active in sports clubs in the western provinces of the country. The statistical sample (N= 384) was selected as a multi-stage. In order to collect data, the market orientation questionnaire (Narvar and Slater, 1990), service quality (Kamali, 1396) and the researcher-made business performance questionnaire were used and the face validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by experts (13 people). Its reliability was also calculated using Cronbach's alpha test (0.95) and combined reliability. Structural equation modeling in PLS3-SPSS24 software has been used to analyze the data and check the model fit. The results showed that market orientation and service quality have a significant effect on the commercial performance of sports venues. Market orientation also has a significant effect on service quality. Finally, the effect of market orientation on business performance was mediated by the quality of service quality. Also, the effect of customer orientation, competitiveness and cross-sectoral coordination dimensions on business performance was significant. According to the results, it can be said that the managers of sports venues must use different market-oriented strategies to achieve successful commercialization of their sports complexes.
