It is highly important to identify the factors influencing the observations of ethical values by players and coaches in small and great events. Therefore, the present research is to examin the relation between emotional intelligence and ethical decision-making among soccer coaches in Tehran. This research is descriptive- co relational, and is conducted in the field. The subjects of this study were all the coaches of the Premier League in Tehran soccer (Tehran Vision) in 1394 which includes 62 people.
The tools employed included standard questionnaires of decision-making in Caswell’s (2003) difficult situations, and Lan et al’s (2009) emotional intelligence questionnaire. The data were analyzed through Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression tests. The results showed that there is a positive, significant correlation between all the subscales of emotional intelligence and the ethical decision-making of the coaches. Finally, the results of the regression showed that emotional intelligence and self-regulation subscales and optimism can anticipate the ethical decision-making of the coaches.

The study is to investigate the relationship between emotional intelligence and mental health with social compatibility of students from the Islamic Azad University- Kermanshah province. The research method was descriptive - correlation. The statistical population consisted of the total number of students from the Islamic Azad University- Kermanshah branch (150 persons) with limited attention to statistical population, 90 athletes were selected as the statistical samples according to the census method. To collect data from emotional intelligence inventories (1998), Gladberk and Hillier's public health questionnaire (1979) and a social compliance questionnaire of Crown Crown and Marlow (2000) were used. To analyze the findings, descriptive statistics (standard, mean and standard deviation) and at the level of inferential statistics such as smirnov test, pearson correlation test, regression test and SPSS version 21 were used. The results showed that there is a positive and significant correlation between emotional intelligence and its dimensions with the social compatibility of students from the Islamic Azad University (P0 / 05). There is also significant and inverse relationship between mental health and its dimensions with the social compatibility of the students (p / 05). In order to predict social compatibility of athlete students through emotional intelligence and mental health, the regression coefficient was used, which is the multiple regression coefficient between emotional and psychological intelligence with the social compatibility of the athlete students (327 = 0). This represents the fact that emotional intelligence and mental health have been able to predict around 327 per cent of the variance of social compliance changes. The determination of the influence of mental intelligence variables and mental health as a predictor variable and social compatibility was analyzed as a criterion variable in the regression equation (001 / 0 p <, 56 / 59 F =). According to the results of this research, participation in sports activities is an effective way to reduce anxiety and depression, and to regulate emotions and promote social harmony. Thus, emotional intelligence provides mental well- being with mental well- being, improving interpersonal relationships and social harmony, helping students to be more successful in the different contexts of life.

Since Sport and especially sport for all, is the life expectancy of the population through health promotion, one of the indicators of human development can be seen in communities. This study is based on a survey approach to explain the impact of social variables (family, media and formal education) on the institutionalization of sport in the country. The citizens living in Tehran were as the population and 480 subjects were chosen randomly from the four metropolitan area. The data collected by means of questionnaires. The reliability and validity of the questionnaires were obtained through Cronbach's alpha coefficient threshold using the construct validity. The results revealed that there is a significant relationship between family and institutionalization of sport. Results of regression analysis showed that the family can be compared to the mass media and formal education. Also a stronger predictor of institutionalization of sport results showed solidarity between the media and formal education, but there was no significant relationship with the institutionalization of sport.

Hope and optimism about the future life are signs of dynamism and vitality in society and ideas for social improvement. Hope for future plays an important role in youthʼs life as builders of future. Since youth are a group of society, they effort for the future and young generation can form tomorrow the way they contemplate today. Accordingly, this study is to delineate the attitudes and feelings over the future of young people and social factors affecting it. This study combines the theoretical framework of Durkheim, Merton and Leeʼs theory of anomie, relative deprivation theory, social comparison theory and Gap theory. This research is performed using the survey method by means of multi-stage cluster sampling among 260 male and female students of University of Tehran. The results showed that the future expectancy is less than the average. Among the factors affecting future expectancy, feelings of deprivation and anomie were of an inverse and significant relation and religiosity had significant positive correlation with hope for the future.

Street disturbances are the most important problems for women in urban public spaces, having wide implications for them. The study is to investigate the relationship between street disturbances against girls and young women with trust and social health. It employs a survey research technique in terms of research method, and a cross-sectional research analysis in terms of time. The research statistical population consisted of girls and young women aged 18-33 years in Tabriz in 2018 who were selected via a multi-stage cluster sampling method. Using the Cochran formula, 384 people were selected as the sample size. To measure the independent variables, the researcher-made Social Trust Questionnaire, Keyes Social Health Questionnaire, and to measure street disturbances, the Disturbance Street Questionnaire of Riahi and Lotfi Khachaki (2016) were employed. Validity and reliability of these questionnaires were confirmed through face and construct validity as well as Cronbach's alpha coefficient test. The findings indicated that the mean of street disturbances and its two dimensions (physical disturbances sexual harassment, and proposals) are lower than moderate level, but the level of non-physical interactions is moderate. Moreover, there is a significant negative correlation between street disturbance and its dimensions (physical, non-physical disturbances, proposals, and sexual harassment) with social trust and social health of girls and young women in Tabriz City. In addition, the variables (physical and non-physical disturbances, proposals, and sexual harassment) entering the research regression model can explain 24% of variances in social trust and 22% of variances in social health of the participants.
