The aim of this study was to meta-analyze the factors controlling corruption in sports organizations in the country. The research method was descriptive and meta-analytical. The statistical population included 17 internal studies conducted in the field of corruption control factors in sports organizations in the period from 2006 to 2020. From the statistical population, 8 studies that met the criteria for entering meta-analysis were selected as a statistical sample through the census method. A total of 39 factors were extracted from the sample research and classified into six major categories: economic, organizational, cultural, rules and regulations, individual and other factors, and entered into the meta-analysis process. Hedges g index was used to calculate the effect size. Due to the heterogeneity in the meta-analysis, the results of the random effects model were considered. The average size of the combined effect in the random effects model for the factors affecting corruption in sports was 0.807, which is significant at the level of 0.001 and according to Cohen's classification, the size of the effect is considered large. Dual and Tweed method (0.8) also showed that there is no diffusion bias error. Finally, the results of meta-analysis for subgroups showed that economic factors, other factors (outsourcing and commitment) and organizational factors have the greatest impact on corruption in sports organizations, respectively and by increasing annual salaries and benefits commensurate with the inflation of society, hiring qualified and committed employees with clear employment criteria, most of the corruption can be controlled.

Evidence in Iran shows that the management of sports facilities and venues is far from international standards. Meanwhile, the Health, Safety and Environment Management System (HSE) is one of the most complete and effective management systems that can help meet this challenge. Based on this, the present study evaluates the sustainable performance of Azadi Sports Complex in Tehran with the HSE approach. This research is of descriptive-analytical type and has been conducted in the field-library. The time frame of this research is 1399 and its location is the sports venues of Azadi Sports Complex in Tehran, which are classified into two categories: places under the management of the complex and places under the management of sports federations. In this study, the data envelopment analysis approach was used to evaluate the sustainable performance of the mentioned places. The results showed that the relative efficiency of DMU1 (places under collection management) is equal to 0.44 and the relative efficiency of DMU2 (places under the supervision of sports federations) is equal to 1.0, which indicates the decision unit DMU2's decision making is relatively better than DMU1 decision making unit.

The tendency to risky behaviors is one of the pervasive social harms among young people, which in addition to social and environmental conditions, the tendencies of individuals are the main motivators in the tendency to these behaviors. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of factor and individualistic variables in the tendency to risky behaviors among Kashani youth. The research method used in the present study was a survey and the statistical sample of the study was 552 young people in Kashan who were selected as the final sample based on Cochran's formula by probabilistic sampling method appropriate to the volume. The reliability of the questionnaire was based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient and its validity was based on the opinions of academic experts. Factor analysis, Pearson correlation test and paired t-test using SPSS 25 software were used for inferential analysis and to measure the relationship between independent and dependent variables. Findings of the study showed that based on gender, boys were more prone to high-risk behaviors than girls. Also hypothesis test results; Feelings of loneliness, hot failure, feelings of loneliness caused by failure, and hedonistic tendencies were significant with the occurrence of risky behaviors. As a result, by reducing the function and role-playing of the family and other factors of socialization, society will witness the spread of risky behaviors and its reproduction in future generations.

This article, based on a qualitative method, and by using semi-structured interviews, seeks to find out how young people attribute themselves to a particular class and how they define their social class. The sample includes 25 single and married young people of different ages, with various class origins. The study states that, from the youth's point of view, class consists of social and cultural aspects. This makes the class interpretable, in such a way that the same situations create different class judgments. This is reinforced by the fact that young people still are not independent and therefore, without a stable job status, define their class position through family features with symbolic and cultural criteria. Similarly, since the classification of young people is built on distinct definitions, it does not create separate social generalities. The result is an ambiguity in classification practices and lack of class boundaries in the lives of the youth. Class ambiguity causes young people to not find a common understanding of their social situation. These procedures motivate young people to subjectively attribute a more pre-eminent class position to themselves and thereby overestimate their ability to shape their biographies. This leads to the delusion of an agency in which young people feel they are building their future. It can be interpreted as an epistemological fallacy in young people's perception of their world that could mislead them toward being guilty of their failures.

The worldwide outbreak of Covid-19 creates significant changes in people's daily lives all over the world. Therefore, the present study can examine the feelings of young people at this point in history (Covid-19). This study used in-depth and semi-standard interviews according to the phenomenological method and context of research. Thus, among the youth of Sistan and Baluchestan, 41 people have been selected and studied by purposive sampling method; Findings were categorized into two main themes, nine sub-themes, and 64 Primary themes. The central theme of emotional transmission in young people shows that the Rapid spread of the disease and its bitter consequences have caused emotional continuity between different social groups, The epidemic of sad life in society, and even global emotion. Another central theme of emotional insecurity in young people consists of the sub-themes, fear, anxiety about the spread and lack of treatment of the disease in the high-risk society, growing frustration, uncertainty, and emotional fatigue resulting from lockdown and corona progression. According to the research results, the youth of this province, along with the problems caused by the Corona epidemic, experienced different and continuous negative emotions such as sadness, fear, despair, indecision, and anger, which provided them with a static and complex emotional life-world. On the other hand, sympathetic feelings and emotional contagion have caused more emotional stagnation and destruction of young people, which seems helpful to pay attention to the needs of young people and the transfer of positive emotional norms to improve their emotions.
