The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of ethical leadership style on job well-being with the mediating role of work-family facilitation.This research is a descriptive-correlational study that has been conducted in the field. The statistical population of this study consisted of all physical education teachers in Sari (N = 190). Statistical sample was determined using G-Power software 118 people who were selected by simple random sampling. Parker & Heath (2011), Brown Ethical Leadership, Torino Harrison (2005) and Holbrook (2005) Family Facilitation Questionnaires were used to collect data after validation and reliability. Data were analyzed using the partial least squares method.The results showed that ethical leadership has a positive and significant effect on work-family facilitation and job well-being. Ethical leadership style also indirectly affects job well-being through work-family facilitation.According to the findings of the present study, it is recommended to the officials of education departments and school principals to use new leadership approaches to improve the welfare of teachers, deal with life problems and maintain the balance of family and work life.

The aim of this study was to investigate a novel approach in order to design a human resource performance assessment questionnaire in sports organizations using an axiomatic design technique. The statistical population of the survey covers all human resources of the ministry(including managers, employees and experts) for the year 2017(N=840)where260samples were considered(n=260)based on Kerejsay and Morgan table. Data gathering tool is a researcher-made questionnaire which is based on human resource performance assessment. The research method is a combination of exploratory and sequential explorations based on the design of a questionnaire using the principle of the axiom design technique. In order to analyze the descriptive statistics data and before and after sport organizations questionnaire,the technique design based on the axiom and appropriate components and relevant indicators have been gathered. Also, apparent validity is determined according to the viewpoint of the professors and,on the other hand, the principle of information determines the content validity and the principle of independence is proportional to the structural validity. Reliability of the questionnaires is calculated based on Cronbach's alpha technique. The results illustrate that the reliability of the questionnaire validity which is designed by the axiom-based design technique is at a level of error of 0.5.Also, the design questionnaire has a higher Cronbach alpha coefficient using axial-based design technique at95%confidence level. A comprehensive performance assessment is achieved when the Ministry of Sports and Youth have the quality in three general criteria, namely the selection of staff, performance indicators of human resources and the maintenance of staff.

The Purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between cultural intelligence and achievement motivation of sport event volunteers. The applied method in this research was descriptive – correlation. The statistical population consisted of Sport Volunteers at the 11th Iranian Universities Sport Olympiad in summer 2012. Because of low statistical population it was considered as the sample population (n=N). The research Instruments was the “cultural intelligence questionnaire” (CCI, 2005) comprised 20 items and “achievement motivation questionnaire” (McClelland) composed of 11 items. The content and face validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by university experts panel. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was used to test the reliability of the questionnaires in pilot study. The reliability of cultural intelligence questionnaire and achievement motivation questionnaire was 0.72 and 0.74 respectively. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze data. The research hypotheses were analyzed through regression with stepwise method. The result of regression analysis showed that metacognitive CI and motivational CI was explaining %24 variance of achievement motivation (F (2,117) = 19.39, p ˂ 0.001; R² = 0.249). The results of this study can create good vision about the importance of developing cultural intelligence and achievement motivation for voluntary affairs managers.

The purpose of present research was to investigate Barriers to promote traditional games from the perspective of the students. The research method was descriptive - correlational. The research Statistical population was students of physical education. Finally, 151 people (boy and girl students) from five universities were randomly selected as the statistical sample. Researcher made questionnaire was used to collect data which its content and face validity was checked and confirmed by 12 of experts. Cronbach's Alpha coefficient was used to test the reliability of the questionnaire (α=0.86). The respondents were asked to indicate their level of agreement on a Likert scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagreed) to 5 (strongly agreed). Factor analysis with varimax rotation was used to analyze the data. According to factor analysis, 31 variables were selected and classified into six categories “managerial, psychological, organizational, environmental, cultural and interpersonal”. The results showed that the most important barriers were "expansion of computer games (4.39± 0.94)". The least important barriers was "physical problems and medical prohibits (2.42 ± 1.19)". The findings demonstrated that ranking the factors that hinder the development of traditional games, was respectively equal to managerial, organizational, cultural, interpersonal, environmental, and psychological factors. Also analysis and comparison of the perspectives of students who were aware of traditional games and students who were not aware, indicated that the management, psychological, organizational and environmental factors showed no significant difference between students (p>0/05), But there are significant differences between cultural factors and the Interpersonal factors (p

Several studies have shown that physical education teachers are exposed to occupational stresses; some of these factors were related to the job environment, which can have adverse effects on their health and their educational role. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between stress and job autonomy among physical education teachers in Sabzevar city. The method of this research was descriptive – correlation. For this purpose, 150 physical education teachers (74 male and 76 female) were selected and TAS job autonomy questionnaire and job stress by Cook and colleagues (1981) were distributed among them. The validity of questionnaires was confirmed With sport management professors and physical education teachers and the level of reliabilityWas determined through using Cronbach's alpha for the scale of job autonomy (α= 0.70) and the job stress inventory (α = 0.74). Data Was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests (Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Spearman correlation, Durbin-Watson testand multiple regression analysis). Results showed a negative and significant relationship between job autonomy (r= - 0.279; p= 0.001 (and general autonomy (r= - 0.329; p= 0.001) with job stress, but there was no significant association between curriculum autonomy with occupational stress. The results of multiple regression analysis showed that general autonomy is the best predictor of the job stress. Findings suggest that educational administrators should provide a basis for increasing job autonomy of physical education teachers to reduced their job stress and enable them to carry out their teaching duties properly.
