Objective: The purpose of this research is to provide a model of organizational resilience in Iranian sports organizations. Methodology: This research is a type of combined research. In the qualitative part, foundation data theory with Strauss and Corbin's approach is used, and in the quantitative part, the survey method is used. The research community was university experts and senior and intermediate managers and experts with experience in the field of sports who participated in the interview process using a targeted sampling approach. With 20 people, the research reached information saturation and the theory was completed. Data analysis was done using Maxqda12 software in three stages of open coding, central coding and selective coding, and based on that, the qualitative research model was designed. Results: More than 300 initial concept codes were extracted from the interviews, which were reduced to 104 codes after refining the codes and getting credit, which are in the form of 34 concepts and 12 categories in the framework of the paradigm model, including organizational resilience as a central category and causal conditions (planning and implementation, causes political, legal reasons), background factors (economic reasons, management system), intervention conditions (social attitude, cultural reasons), strategies (financial actions, comprehensive approach) and consequences (reduction of financial losses, national and international successes, socio-cultural advantages) ) it placed. Finally, the obtained model was tested among the sports community of 384 people and after fitting the model, the final model of organizational resilience in Iranian sports organizations was obtained.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to formulate a model for national champions' reluctance to sport retirement. Methodology: This research is exploratory-fundamental in terms of scope, qualitative in terms of methodology, and data-based in terms of strategy, with theoretical foundations and interviews as its data collection source. The population includes coaches, physical education masters, retired athletes and athletes. Targeted and quota sampling was conducted for exploratory interviews and the interviews with 22 people accounted for theoretical saturation. The interviews were depicted in Maxqda software for qualitative data analysis, along with open coding, axial coding and selective coding of reluctance to sport retirement, and the theory was created. Results: According to the results, 261 open codes with 21 main categories and 49 sub- categories were extracted in form of a paradigm model of factors of champions' reluctance to sport retirement including economic, individual, sport, social, management and political conditions. Conclusion: Managers, coaches and athletes' approach toward sport retirement can facilitate the development of programs to adapt individually and organizationally to sport retirement away from individual, social, economic, management and political crises. The research theory was presented along with categories on causative conditions, background factors, interventional factors, strategies and outcomes.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of Moral Decision-making Questionnaire in Sport. Methodology: The statistical population of this study was the athletes in the Iran out of which 262 questionnaires were collected. Measurement Instrument was a questionnaire of 20-item used Moral Decision-making (Martin et al, 2007) with three subscales (Acceptance of Cheating, Keeping Winning in Proportion, Acceptance of Gamesmanship). Validity of questionnaire was accepted after translation by professors sport management specialists. Statistical methods were descriptive indexes for describing data, Cronbach`s alpha for determining validity, analysis of an accepting factor to determine the structures validity was used. Results: Analytical results showed (α=0.78) reliability for Moral Decision-making questionnaire. All questions had a significant relationship with their agent in reliability of Structure, the amount of relationship and T-value, and they could be a good predictor for their agent. X2/df=3.26, RMSEA=0.064 indexes and NFI=0.90, CFI=0.90 and GFI=0.94 also confirmed the goodness of models. Also, the results about the relations of factors with the meaning of Moral Decision-making showed that all factors could be a good predictor for the concept of Moral Decision-making. Conclusion: Questionnaire ethical decision making reliable and valid measure that can be used to evaluate ethical decision-making in the field of sports and reliable and consistent results are achieved.
