چکیده
هدف از پژوهش حاضر، بررسی نقش هویت تیمی در وفاداری هواداران تیم‌های حاضر در لیگ برتر فوتبال ایران از طریق مدل‌سازی معادلات ساختاری بود. روش تحقیق توصیفی و از نوع همبستگی بود. جامعه آماری پژوهش را کلیۀ هواداران بالای 18 سال تیم‌های حاضر در لیگ برتر فوتبال ایران در فصل 96 ـ 95 (لیگ شانزدهم) تشکیل دادند. در نهایت 640 پرسش‌نامه مورد تجزیه و تحلیل آماری قرار گرفتند. برای سنجش هویت تیمی از پرسش‌نامه هییر و همکاران(2011) و برای سنجش وفاداری هواداران در دو بعد نگرشی و رفتاری به ترتیب از پرسش‌نامه‌های گلادن و فانک (2001) و ایوازاکی و هاویتز (2004)، استفاده شد. پس از تأیید روایی صوری و محتوایی پرسش‌نامه‌ها، میزان پایایی پرسش‌نامه‌های هویت تیمی و وفاداری در یک مطالعه راهنما و با استفاده از ضریب همبستگی آلفای کرونباخ تأیید شدند. از روش مدل‌سازی معادلات ساختاری برای تحلیل داده‌ها استفاده شد. تجزیه و تحلیل مدل معادله ساختاری پژوهش نشان داد، هویت تیمی بر وفاداری هواداران تأثیر مثبت و معنی‌داری دارد. بنابراین به مدیران ورزشی توصیه می‌شود، به منظور ایجاد و بالا بردن وفاداری هواداران به مواردی از قبیل قدردانی از هواداران و اعتمادسازی توجه نمایند.
