    Attitudes and Physical Self-Concept as Determinants of Physical Activity Practice
    (Universidad de Murcia Servicio de Publicaciones, 2023-01-01)
    The regular practice of physical activity (PA) in adolescence is essential for good health throughout life; therefore, studying the variables that condition PA behavior is of great importance to reinforce or modify behavior in a timely manner in order to guarantee a healthier society. In this sense, the main objective of this study was to examine the correlation and relationship between attitudes and physical self-concept with PA practice in Peruvian adolescents. This is an empirical research of an associative nature in which 1264 schoolchildren aged between 14 and 17 years (15.51±.94), from public and private institutions in Lima and Callao, Peru, participated in a sociodemographic questionnaire, a questionnaire of attitudes towards the practice of physical-sports activity, a physical self-concept questionnaire and an inventory of habitual physical activity. The results, firstly, showed that the highest correlation score between the variables studied was between attitudes and PA practice (.511), which was corroborated by a large effect size (.25). Second, 25.1 % of the variability in practice was found to be due to changes in attitudes and physical self-concept. In addition, according to the multiple regression analysis, the model proposed proved to be valid (y = -.560 +.894x1+0.94x2). Thus, on the one hand, it is explained that for each point that is increased in attitudes (x1), PA practice increases.894 on average, keeping physical self-concept constant (x2); on the other hand, for each point that is increased in physical self-concept (x2), PA practice increases.94 on average, keeping attitudes constant (x1). In conclusion, it is shown that the attitudes and/or physical self-concept of adolescents condition PA practice.

    A Sport-Based Social Entrepreneurship: What Do We Need?
    (Inderscience Publishers, 2023-01-01)
    One of the types of entrepreneurships that has recently been considered by researchers is social entrepreneurship, which is aimed at solving social problems in society and carrying out social and humanitarian missions in business activities. Sport is among the most important areas of entrepreneurship. In this study, we are looking to identify the major factors contributing to social entrepreneurship in sport. More specifically, the systematic approach of Strauss and Corbin has been used to develop a model of social entrepreneurship in Iranian sport sector. In doing so, we have conducted 10 in-depth interviews with sport experts. Accordingly, three major factors have been identified: individual, contextual, and institutional factors. Individual factors have three sub-factors, namely social, economic, and political factors. Institutional factors have two sub-factors of governmental and cultural support, and finally, contextual factors have three sub-factors, including financial, human, and cultural capital.
