Background: There are relationships between exercise effect on mental health, especially negative emotions such as anxiety and stress. Aim : The aim study was the effect of participation in public sports activities based on the theory of planned behavior on the public health. Methods: This study is a descriptive correlation study with confirmatory factor analysis approach. Data was collected from 288 public sports participants of Tehran Municipality. Three standard questionnaires, including Goldberg General Health (1979) with 28 questions were used for collecting data. Results: Construct Variance extracted was 0.4, composite reliability 0.9 and Cronbach’s Coefficient Alpha 0.7. As a result, the convergence validity and reliability of the model were acceptable. Divergent validity, convergent validity and discriminant validity of the model were confirmed by first order and second order confirmatory factor analyses. The positive validity of all subscriptions for latent variables indicated the appropriate quality of the measurement model. In this model, it was found that regular physical activity combined with planned behavior had a direct effect of 53% (correlation 0.729) on general health. Conclusion: According to the structural equation model, it was found that regular physical activity combined with planned behavior has a direct effect of 58% on general health.

In the first part of the research, the researcher ranked the research options with a survey of 15 experts and in the second part, using Morgan table, 150 people were estimated as a research sample, which was done by random sampling among the staff of the Sports and Youth Department of Azerbaijan province. It was western. In the first part, with the exploratory approach and extraction of components, 8 indicators and 39 items were extracted, which were used for design in the model design stage, and in this part, according to the sample size, which was less than 200. In this study, in order to describe the data from descriptive and inferential statistics and from TOPSIS statistical software for the best and worst desired situation in evaluating the options, SPS24 and the partial least squares technique with the help of Smart Cup software. S2 was used. Findings: The results showed that 8 extracted indicators (organizational culture, 0.79, organizational support 0.76, technical factors 0.74, individual factors 0.653, job-related factors 0.646, educational factors 0.60, Systemic factors (0.495 and environmental factors (0.367, respectively) indicated empowerment and productivity of human resources from the perspective of respondents. Conclusion: Empowering employees on organizational performance of employees significantly increases organizational performance.

The purpose of this research was to explain the relationship between the personality of brands with risk aversion and customer loyalty. This research was applied in terms of purpose, descriptive correlation one in terms of information gathering and based on structural equation modeling. The statistical population consisted of all customers with credible brands (5 famous and high-income brands such as Adidas, Nike, Puma, Al-Sport, and Asx) in East Azarbaijan province. With regard to the unlimited statistical population, 384 people were selected as the statistical sample based on Morgan's table. The brand personality standard questionnaire (Jones et al., 2009), Customer loyalty Anismawa (2007), and a researcher-made risk aversion questionnaire were used to collect data. The validity of the questionnaires, in addition to the supervisor's approval, was confirmed by 10 supervised faculty members and the reliability of the questionnaire was 0.849, 0.867 and 0.957, respectively, using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The validity of the questionnaire structure was also confirmed by factor analysis. Data were analyzed using SPSS and Amos software. The results of structural equations showed that the brand personality has a direct and positive effect on risk aversion (factor = 0.359), attitudinal loyalty (factor = 0.575), behavioral loyalty of customers (factor = 0.548). Also, the model's indices show the fitness of the research communication model. 

The purpose of this study is to identify the role of sport as a soft power for Iran to facilitate its diplomatic relations after the nuclear deal. The research method used in this study is mixed (qualitative and quantitative): in the qualitative part of the analysis, the study sample was selected via Snowball sampling based on partricipants’ expertise in the sport diplomacy of Iran after two rounds of Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) exploratory factor analysis. Seven components of political currents, cultural exchange, peacemaking, national unity, economic development, transformation, communication, and religious currents were extracted. After identifying the study’s research variables in a structural-interpretive modeling, the relationship between variables was examined through a structural equation modeling test. The results of the structural equation model indicated that political currents, cultural exchange, transformation and communication had a direct and significant effect on national unity. The relationship between political and peacebuilding was not confirmed, but national unity and excellence in peace diplomacy had a direct and significant impact on the economic development of societies.
