Introduction: Sports injuries among physical education students are prevalent and various factors, including management factors, affect them.
Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, by using the systematic design of the data based theory required information was collected from 12 physical education teachers through targeted interviews. The interviews were then coded and a theoretical model of the research were developed. Finally, in order to evaluate the accuracy of theoretical model a questionnaire was designed and completed by 330 physical education students and the effect coefficients of different parts of the model were investigated by modeling structural equations in PLS software environment.
Results: The results of the analysis of qualitative data obtained from the interview led to the presentation of the model of prevention of sports injuries of physical education students based on managerial factors with 13 categories and 38 concepts in the form of 6 dimensions including causal factors, the main phenomenon, strategy, background characteristics, intervening conditions and outcomes. General test of structural equation modeling was performed using the Goodness of Fit Test and was confirmed(GOF = 0.74). The statistical value of T for the effect of each ofcausal factors, background characteristics, intervening conditions was higher than (1.96), so their effect was confirmed.
Conclusion: Thus, by modifying the approach of student admission, educational programming and securing places along with teaching and informing, we will be able to significantly reduce the incidence of sports injuries in physical education students.

Background and Purpose: Because of dyspraxia students have difficulty in some movements and deformity of the spine as a factor can lead to restriction of their movement، the purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between vertebral column deformities and components of the Kepart test in students with dyspraxia.
Methods and Materials: The present descriptive analytical research is a cross-sectional study، involving the male elementary school students of Tehran in 2009. The participants were selected through multi-stage cluster sampling: Zone 4 was chosen by random from among the 22 municipal districts; 5 schools were selected by random from among many schools in the zone; finally، 1100 students were randomly selected. In the first step، we distributed the questionnaire about the conceptual - movement deficiency (validity 0.86). Eighty students of 8 to 12 years with problems in at least 5 components (out of 14) participated in the Kepart test (validity 0.95). From them، 34 students with the lowest scores were selected as the study subjects. Then، with the use of Spinal – Mouse machine، the vertebrate column deformities of students were studied from frontal and sagital aspects. For analyzing the data، Pearson’s correlation coefficient was used in SPSS 13.
Results: The prevalence of deformities was flat back 40%، thoracic kyphosis 29.16% and thoracic scoliosis 20.83% in the subjects. A significant relationship (p=0.05، r=0.34) was found between lumbar lordosis and side walking in students with dyspraxia. Also، the prevalence of dyspraxia was 7.26%، and 2.18% suffered from severe dyspraxia.
Conclusion: The results showed that the lower the amount of lumbar lordosis، the lower the students’ ability to side walk.

Background and Purpose: The emotional intelligence (EQ) includes understanding and control of emotions. The purpose of the present study was investigating the relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership styles (transformation and transaction) in the coaches of sports teams of Region 9 of the Islamic Azad University.
Methods and Materials: This study is a cross-sectional descriptive analytical research. The study population included male coaches of the sports teams of the Islamic Azad University Region 9، from among who 240 participants were randomly selected. Data collection was done through emotional intelligence questionnaire (Shoot، validity 0.84)، leadership style questionnaire (Varner Bourk، validity 0.79) and a demographic questionnaire. The obtained data were statistically analyzed in SPSS 13 using descriptive statistics (frequency، mean and standard deviation) and Pearson Correlation coefficient.
Results: Mean emotional intelligence of the participants was 116.25±20.21; mean transformation and transaction leadership styles scores were 50.60±5.41 and 24.42±5.41، respectively. There was a positive significant correlation between emotional intelligence and transformation leadership style (p=0.001، r=0.404). Also، there was a significant negative correlation between emotional intelligence and transactional leadership style (p=0.001، r=-0.404). Investigating the effect of age، experience and educational major on the relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership style showed that older age and experience of the coach highlights this relationship (r=0.475، p=0.000). However، this correlation was significant only in coaches with non-physical-training education (p=0.000، r=0.559).
Conclusion: According to the results، it can be stated the higher the emotional intelligence in coaches، the stronger their willingness to transformation leadership style will be.

Background and Purpose: Since the neck supports head weight, its abnormal positioning not only results in spoiled posture but also predisposes the body for physical disabilities, abnormalities, and injuries. The present study was conducted to investigate the radiographic component in forward head posture in relation whit gender and height. Materials and methods: In this descriptive analytical study, 300 students from Razi University in Kermanshah, Iran (150 males and 150 females) were selected randomly and screened with the use of PPV (Posture Pro V) software; 14 students with forward head posture (FHP>5) and 14 healthy students (1≥FHP ≥0) were selected as subjects and participated in the following phase of research with informed consent. Cervical spines were evaluated by radiography from lateral view and then evaluated for anterior head translation (AHT), cervical lordosis (C2-C7), and superior cervical curvature (C1-C2) in lateral cervical spines. Mean differences of healthy and FHP subject’s variables were analyzed and compared with independent t-test. Also, Pearson’s coefficient of correlation was used for investigating the relationships between variables at p
