The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors affecting the exaggeration of activities performed in public sport. This research is a descriptive, field research. The statistical population of this study included all experts in public sport. These included managers and staff of the Federation of Public Sports, who have comprehensive information in the field of policymaking, as well as professors of sport management aware of the field of public sport. Based on snowball selection to theoretical saturation level, 54 individuals (12 from the Federation of Public Sports as well as 42 from sport management professors aware of public sports) were selected as the sample of the study. To analyze the data of the present study, the statistical methods of Kolmogorov Smirnov and one-sample t-test using SPSS software and interpretive structural modeling method using MicMac software were used. The results showed that lack of financial resources in public sport, the appointment of managers outside the context of their experiences in public sport, the ambiguity about the functions and role of public sport executives in the country, and the lack of managerial stability in sports organizations are key independent factors. According to the interpretive structural modeling method, these factors in turn influence other factors that exaggerate the activities performed in public sport.
