The aim of this study was to examine sport commitment model in women participating in sport activities. The population of this study consisted of all women (N=6000) who participated in sport activities in Mashhad Municipality. 526 subjects were studied as the sample. The demographic and sport commitment model (Scanlan، 1993) questionnaires were used to collect the data. Findings indicated that sport commitment and sport enjoyment had a positive and significant relationship with involvement opportunities، personal investment، health attitude and social constraints، but no relationship with involvement alternatives. Path analysis test showed that social constraints، involvement opportunities، involvement alternatives، personal investments and sport enjoyment had direct and indirect effects on sport commitment، but health attitude just had an indirect effect on sport commitment. In this model، sport enjoyment played a role as a mediator variable. Also، the section of total effect indicated that involvement opportunities had the largest effect on sport commitment (β=0. 38). R-square of endogenous variables indicated that %60 and %61 of sport enjoyment and commitment variances respectively was predictable by exogenous variables. Finally، the model showed a good fit to the data.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the concept of “sport commitment” and identify the factors that make it up through the application of exploratory nature of grounded theory. Eleven athletes in shooting, track and field, swimming, football, badminton, and Ping-Pong who were selected for Paralympic and world competition participated in semi-structured interviews for 30-60 minutes. Then, the interviews were transcribed to analyze data.Open, axial, and selective coding led to the classification of factors and concepts. Analyzing data showed that three factors led to sport commitment including sport enjoyment, get a higher sport ranking, and desire to make up disability. New classification of factors and omission of some effective factors over sport commitment which were found in previous studies make it necessary to pay attention to environmental and Cultural variables as well as native models (patterns).
