The research is to present an institutionalization model for women's sports management. It was interpretive research in terms of philosophy, fundamental in terms of approach, foundational data theory in terms of strategy, qualitative research in terms of research selection, and cross-sectional in terms of time period, and its data collection method was interviews. The statistical population was included of experts in the field of women's sports management- university professors and staff managers of the Ministry of Sports and Youth and the National Sports Olympic Committee. The snowball sampling method was used and the sampling continued until the theoretical saturation (15 interviews). To collect information, semi-structured interviews were used and for data analysis, three overlapping processes of open coding, axial coding, and theoretical coding were used.
Based on the analysis of the interviews, it was determined that the institutionalization of women's sports management succession in Iran is influenced by contextual factors (gender justice, organizational dynamics and maturity and database), structural factors (management, program, meritocracy and talent management of human resources) and behavioral factors (positive portrayal, compensation of gender inequalities and believability). As a result, it is suggested that in order to institutionalize the succession of women's sports management, networking and synergistic factors affecting the institutionalization with the focus of women's sports management should be done.

The study is to investigate the effect of bureaucratic culture on the self-development behavior of the staff of the General Directorate of Sports and Youth of Hormozgan Province, taking into account the mediating role of creativity. The statistical population was 126 staff of the General Directorate of Sports and Youth of Hormozgan province. Due to the limited population, the statistical sample was considered as a total number of the population. However, the data of 111 returned questionnaires were analyzed. The main tool for data collection was a standard questionnaire. Denison's “Bureaucratic Culture Questionnaire” (1990), Liao and Wu “Organizational Creativity Questionnaire” (2013) and Peralta “Self-Development Questionnaire” (2008) were used to measure the variables. To test the hypotheses and model fit, modeling of path-structural equations with partial least squares approach was considered using SPSS software version 20 and smart PLS version 2.
The findings showed Bureaucratic culture has a negative and significant effect on self-development behavior and creativity of employees, but creativity is of a positive and significant effect on self-development behavior of these employees. Managers can create a suitable and non-bureaucratic cultural atmosphere in the organization and make the rules and procedures of work flexible, give independence of action and delegate authority in a timely manner, strengthen mutual cooperation and teamwork and providing the grounds for creativity and self-development behaviors of the staff.

The research is to design a model for the development of championship level of figure skating in Iran. The research method was from the qualitative type of foundational data theory with the approach of Strauss and Corbin (2008), from the perspective of the descriptive-survey data collection method and the perspective of the fundamental goal. To collec the data, targeted in-depth interviews with 25 sports managers (with at least 5 years of managerial experience related to skating), coaches, and athletes (with at least 5 years of professional or semi-professional skating experience) were used. The content validity of the interview tool was confirmed by experts (4 expert researchers) and reliability were confirmed through recoding (α=0/87). Finally, after 25 interviews, th theoretical saturation was reached and the results and the data were analyzed through three stages of coding. The final model was compiled, with the two concepts of "value" and "forgetfulness" as the central phenomenon and 2 categories "organization-oriented factors" and "job-oriented factors" were introduced in the form of causal conditions. Therefore, according to the results, the factors that cause the emergence of the central category of "forgetting", and "value" are: organization-oriented factors and job-oriented factors, and in this regard, the officials, according to the intervening conditions, systemic factors, and background conditions, including the degree of dependence, government support, and exceptional leadership; There will be two types of actions and reactions under the title of strategic reactions including professionalization and gaining support and conventional reactions including unsustainable development. The result of resorting to these strategies will lead to production effectiveness or deadlock at the level of the skating championship.

The study is to design an optimal model for protecting elite athletes against harassment and abuse in Iranian sports. This qualitative study was conducted by using grounded theory methodology based on Strauss and Corbin approach. For gathering data, studying high level documents and semi-structured in-depth individual interviews with experts aware of the subject were done. The statistical population included elite athletes in adults, the heads of sports federations, the committee of National Olympic coaches and the deputy ministers of the Ministry of Sports and Youth. Sampling method was purposive and fourteen interviews with elites and experts were collected. For data analysis, the continuous comparison method was used in three stages: open, axial and selective coding. Base on the study results, 5 main components and 15 subcomponents and 123 open codes were extracted.
The results showed that awareness, mutual rights and education were identified as the most important causal factors of the model. Media power factors, protection officer and audience classification were identified as the most important contextual factors. The intervening factors of the model also included limitations, infrastructure and managers' ignorance. Finally, strategies including policies, trust building, public relations, media and law were suggested. It seems managers can benefit from its achievements in sports organizations by implementing the model of protecting elite athletes against harassment and abuse.

The rapid development of the sports economy within the world, as an effective factor for the economic growth, has been the focus of policymakers in recent years. In order to formulate effective strategies in the sports economy, the first step is to accurately estimate the size of the sport industry in the economy. In this regard, the study is to estimate the gross domestic sport production (GDSP) for all of the Iranian provinces during the period 1389-1400, employing economic theories related to the sport economy. The results of the study show that on average the share of exercise in the country's total production was approximately 0/39 %, and this share has declined over the investigation period. On the other hand, the real GDP of Iran`s sport industries as a whole have experienced a 18 % decrease over the period. In addition, 19 % of the national sport economy has been spent only in Tehran province; 50 % of the national sport economy spent in Tehran, Isfahan, Mazandaran, Markazi, Fars, and Khorasan Razavi provinces and 50 % of the rest have been spent in 24 other provinces. In terms of share, the highest size of the sports economy compared to the province's economy was 1/84 % for South Khorasan and the lowest share in Khuzestan province with only 0/09 % of the province's economy. Considering the three main results of the study, including 1) a small share of sports in the Iran`s economy, 2) the downtrend of the sport economy in the country, and 3) inequality in distributing sports production among Iran`s provinces, emphasizes that sports policymakers need to formulate strategies in order to take advantage of the Iran`s sports economy capacities.

The pace of changes in sports business is so fast that balancing today's operational challenges and planning to face the big event of the future is a serious challenge. Therefore, the research is to identify the key and strategic factors affecting the future of electronic sports businesses in Iran. It is of mixed type (qualitative-quantitative) and its design is of sequential exploratory type. The participants were the beneficiaries of electronic sports businesses. The sampling method was targeted sampling and based on theoretical saturation, 20 people were selected. Interviews and questionnaires were used to collect data and Lincoln and Gaba (1985) criteria were used for its audit, which included validity, transferability, reliability and verifiability. In order to analyze the data in the interview analysis section, the coding method was used. The fuzzy Delphi method was used to screen the indicators, and the structural analysis method was used in the future research section with the help of Micmac software. By analyzing the interviews, 156 initial concepts were gathered into 75 final concepts and 3 main categories: general environment, operational (specialized) environment and internal environment. Then, 36 effective factors were identified through fuzzy Delphi screening. Finally, it was determined that the growth of 5G technology, the general acceptance of e-sports, the increase in demand for e-sports, the legitimacy of e-sports, and the e-sports league are the five driving forces that make possible alternatives for the future of e-sports businesses.
As a result, it is necessary to consider their situation in the design of the future plans and actions of the mentioned businesses in particular, based on the fact that the nature of these factors is mixed with instability, and any action and change on it will result in reaction and change on other indicators

Iran's Statistical Center reports that the marriage-to-divorce ratio in 2021 was 3 to 1. It mentions that most divorces occur between 1 and 5 years of marriage. The social and cultural implications of these reports and the emphasis of most existing studies on divorce risk factors necessitate an in-depth analysis of the process and factors contributing to the sustainability of cohabitation of Iranian couples concerning the Family Protection and Young Population Act. Accordingly, the paper explores life stability among Iranian couples. So, 11 Iranian couples were selected using the criteria and snowball sampling methods. Semistructured interviews were conducted based on Strauss and Corbin's grounded theory and systematic design. Following the sequential review and data comparison, 350 primary codes, 25 subcategories, and eight categories were extracted from causal, contextual, interventional-environmental, and strategy and outcome conditions. Among the categories, assigning agency to the eligibilities concerning marriage durability was the main category. Sustainable life is a multi-level and multi-dimensional phenomenon influenced by various pre- and post-marriage factors. Sustainable life is not an event but a trend and a process forged under the influence of psychological-personality factors, ethics, and values, joined by the individual, paired contexts, employment, and income; one that, with favorable and essential areas can assist couples to adopt effective strategies in different real-world scenarios through interactive and sociocultural factors and family conditions, and thrive individually and socially. If couples take a route through interaction, they will experience a lasting marriage life in quantity (over 20 years) and quality.

باتوجه به نقش چشمگیر خانواده در حوزهی حقوق بشر موضوع حق ازدواج میتواند از جمله مسائل مهم برای داشتن جامعهای با ثبات باشد. پژوهش حاضر که بر اساس روش توصیفی انجام شده است، به مطالعه تطبیقی حق برتشکیل خانواده از نظر حقوق بینالملل بشر و اسلام میپردازد. اولین تفاوت این دو نظام قید «بالغی» در ماده ۱۶ اعلامیه جهانی حقوق بشر است و به معنای این است که تنها زنان و مردان بالغ در حق بر ازدواج آزادند که در سند اسلامی چنین قیدی نیست. مهمترین تمایز این دو، شناسایی نهاد خانواده در چارچوبی قدسی در اعلامیه حقوق بشر اسلامی است. قیود مذکور در سند اسلامی (نژاد، رنگ، قومیت) و قیود مذکور در اعلامیه جهانی حقوق بشر (نجات، ملیت، تابعیت) و هر قید دیگری به استثنای دین و مذهب با اصل آزادی از ازدواج مخالف نیستند. قید مذهب در اعلامیه جهانی حقوق بشر به کارگرفته شده، ولی در اعلامیه حقوق بشر اسلامی سخنی از دین و مذهب به میان نیامده که همین امر سبب ایجاد محدودیتهایی برای اصل آزادی ازدواج شدهاست.

The research is to identify the upcoming scenarios of the leisure patterns of urban youth in Iran in the horizon of 1406. Today, free time is so important that it is even referred to as a mirror of the society's culture, which means that how people spend their free time in a society largely reflects the characteristics of that society's culture. In this research, the current leisure patterns of the youth of Iran were analyzed and the main trends were expressed. Then the most important scenarios for the leisure patterns were presented. The macro approach of the research was interpretative and qualitative, and the method used was scenario planning based on branch analysis, which was based on library studies and statistics from the set of quantitative and qualitative research conducted in recent years.
According to the findings of the research, three critical uncertainties of adherence to family and friends group, non-secular religious beliefs and income to cost were identified and using them, eight scenarios were written, two scenarios as probable scenarios, two scenarios as desirable scenarios and a scenario is introduced as the worst scenario and finally strategies were stated to move towards the desirable scenario.
The results showed that according to the existing trends, one of the two probable scenarios is the worst scenario, which shows the importance of special attention and planning and quick action regarding the subject of the research on the part of the authorities.

The research is to examine strategies to enhance the participation of youth non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in public welfare activities through a social marketing approach. This qualitative study was based on grounded theory. The study focused on youth NGOs and the data was collected through in-depth interviews with 12 experts in social marketing and officials from youth NGOs across the country. The data analysis was conducted using three overlapping coding processes: open coding, axial coding and selective coding, facilitated by Maxqda software.
The results showed that causal factors such as the values and attitudes of youth, education, NGOs' concern for issues, their capabilities and expertise, organizing campaigns and festivals, utilizing celebrities, word-of-mouth advertising, and motivation determine the level of youth participation in public welfare activities. The findings also revealed that strategies for enhancing youth participation include gaining youth satisfaction, expanding the presence of NGOs, strengthening the culture of social participation, promoting social entrepreneurship, creating media campaigns, involving youth in programs (stakeholder engagement), enhancing social capital, using social media, and promoting and developing desirable participatory behaviors among youth. The outcomes included increased social sensitivity and responsibility among youth, greater youth involvement in NGOs, the flourishing of social entrepreneurship, the development of participatory behaviors in public welfare among youth, and the quantitative and qualitative growth of youth NGOs.
