T significant coefficients model to determine the significance of the relationship between questions and related structures is provided using LISREL software. Note that all numbers are significantly higher than 1.96 in this model and the results of all questions considered relevant for the structural correlation was 4/0 , Finally measurement validity and reliability of the questionnaire, 91% were confirmed at 05/0. To analyze the data statistically AHP and TOPSIS method was used . The results indicate that from the perspective of the elderly among Inhibitory factor ,Social and cultural factors with coefficient ratio (.0146) have highest ranking.

And, to evaluate the combinational reliability, Cronbach’s Alpha was used. The results of exploratory factor analysis indicated that four factors were explained by 70.66% of variance, and KMO was measured 87%. The reliability of the questionnaire was reported to be 0.92 and 0.96 based on Cronbach’s Alpha and combinational reliability, respectively.Given the fact that the validity and reliability indexes of questionnaire have all been reported to be in a satisfactory condition, this questionnaire can be used as a valid and reliable questionnaire to measure sports Justice and its dimensions.

The method of study was descriptive and correlational in nature whose purpose was to examine the role of nostalgia (last memories) on ski run tourist‘s behavioral intention in Tehran. The statistical population of the study were all ski run tourists who visited this ski run at least 3 times a year. Therefore, due to uncertain population size, Cochrane‘s sample size was used to calculate the sample size (N=197).The data were collected using Heetae Cho questionnaire (2014), content and face validity of which were verified by 8 scholars and its reliability was measured through Cronbach’s coefficient alpha and was (α=0.922) and (α=0.836) for nostalgia and for behavioral intentions respectively. To analyze the data, we employed the Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests, Pearson‘s correlation and multiple linear regression with significance level (P≤0.05). The results showed that there was positive and significant relationship between nostalgia and its dimension with tourist’s behavioral intention(r=0.318,P≤0.01). moreover among nostalgia’s dimensions, group identity (Beta=0.464,t=5.414) and socializing (Beta=0.161,t=2.093) were respectively strong predictors of tourist‘s behavioral intention. Intention to evoke last memorable memories through accepting norms and ritual group, connecting and interacting with others among tourists are among the items that sport organization can influence the tourist’s behavioral intention through nostalgia as persuasive instrument.
