The statistical population of this study was all customers of sports products in Khorasan Razavi province that According to the Cochran sample size, 384 people were selected as a statistical sample by random cluster sampling And completed the standard questionnaires of regret after the purchase of Delacroix et al. (2007) and the study of purchasing motivations of Iranian consumers Heidarzadeh and Bahrami (2015). Data analysis was performed by SPSS and AMOS software. The results showed that the variable of shopping motivation was affected by factors such as shopping at auction, utilitarian shopping, pleasure shopping, role playing, brand consciousness and awareness (brand loyalty), sensory motivation and inspiring shopping, quality awareness, social shopping, fun or entertainment shopping and value shopping respectively. Also, the two dimensions of feeling regret after shopping and feeling regret due to not shopping were the two factors that explained the variable of shopping regret. On the other hand, it was observed that there is a correlation between shopping motivation and shopping regret and the relationship model between shopping motivation and shopping regret has a good fit. Therefore, identifying shopping motivations can be effective for owners, marketers and sellers of sports equipment stores in creating long-term relationships between sellers and customers.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of observational practice on anticipation and visual search behavior in handball players in handball defense positions. The participants were 23 male handball players aged 16-19 years, who were members of Isfahan national youth and Pishgaman team. The players viewed clips of handball defense positions using eye-tracking glasses. They verbally expressed their anticipation about the outcome of the ball position during the pre-test. The players were divided into two groups: gaze behavior, which was observed (observation of output clips of eye-tracking glasses) and observation group, which observed only handball clips. Then the two groups were retested after 10 sessions of 45 minutes. The results of repeated measures analysis of variance and Muchly test with sphiricity assumed illustrated that the anticipation accuracy and visual search behavior of the gaze behavior group in the post-test were significantly better than the observation group. Defending handball players in the 3×3 position compared to the other two positions (2 × 2, 1 × 1), focused on the background and kinematics of the attacking player to anticipate and identify the attacking player pattern.

Abstract
The purpose of this research was to investigate the environmentally friendly behavior of active sports tourists in Bushehr. The sample included 102 tourists who completed the research questionnaire. The research tools were questionnaires of compliance with the environment, environmental policy, environmental inclination and word-of-mouth advertising by Kontojiani and Kotoris (2014). Descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling were used in PLS3 software for data analysis. The results showed that the environmental compatibility of the services of sports recreation centers has a significant effect on the word-of-mouth advertising of tourists, and the friendly policy of protecting the environment among tourists has a significant effect on their willingness to preserve and care for the environment. The desire to preserve the environment was not causally related to word of mouth. The compliance of sports tourism service centers with environmental protection indicators did not have a significant effect on the desire to protect the environment, and therefore sports tourists who have an environmentally friendly policy show their desire to protect the environment in any situation. Based on the results, it is suggested that various training courses and programs be held for sports tourists in order to familiarize themselves with environmental issues and to improve their environmental practices and attitudes.

Abstract
Introduction and Purpose: Predicting spectators’ behavioral intentions through perceived value represents a novel approach in analyzing sports consumer behavior. By focusing on the audience’s subjective perceptions, this framework enables the design of effective strategies for attracting, retaining, and enhancing engagement with sporting events. The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating role of overall satisfaction and emotional satisfaction in the relationship between perceived value and behavioral intentions of football spectators.
Methodology: This research is applied in nature and employs a correlational design with a structural equation modeling (SEM) approach. The statistical population consisted of spectators present at Azadi Stadium during the 2017–2018 season. A non-random, voluntary sampling method was used, resulting in a sample size of 383 participants. Data were collected using standardized questionnaires: Perceived Value (Luskiu & McDougall, 1996), Overall Satisfaction (Lourie & Arnett, 2000), Emotional Satisfaction (Reynolds & Beatty, 1999), Intention to Re-attend and Word-of-Mouth (Carroll, 2009), and Willingness to Pay More (Zeithaml et al., 1996). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS and Smart PLS software.
Findings: The results indicated that perceived value indirectly affects behavioral intentions through emotional satisfaction in a statistically significant manner. Based on the VAF index, emotional satisfaction mediates 48% of the relationship between perceived value and behavioral intentions. In contrast, overall satisfaction did not show a significant mediating effect in this relationship.
Conclusion: Emotional satisfaction plays a crucial role in shaping the behavioral tendencies of football spectators. It is recommended that sports managers and marketers implement strategies that enhance emotional satisfaction among spectators to strengthen their behavioral engagement and loyalty.
