Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine therelationship perceived autonomy-supportive behaviors of coaches onself-determined motivation and sport commitment of elitefemale players inHandball league. The research desing was a descriptive-correlational.For this pourpose statistical society of this research incloud 237 female players were selected equal to sample society. Perceived autonomy- supportive behaviors of coaches, self-determined motivation and sport commitment were assessed using the perceived autonomy support scale for exercise settings(PASSES), Sport Motivation Scale (SMS( and Sport Commitment Model Scale) scms) respectively. The validity and reliability of the questionnaires was measured and modified.Data were analyzed using multiple regression and Structural Equation Models (SEM) in significance level of P<0/05. The finding showed autonomy-supportive behaviors had significant positive correlation with intrinsic motivation, introjected regulation and indentified regulation. However, autonomy-supportive negative correlation amotivation.In addition, intrinsic motivation, introjected regulation and indentified regulation had significant positive correlation with sport commitment players.Multiple regression showed autonomy-supportive coaches was predictor factor for the intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation and sport commitment players.path analysis results offered support for the proposed model. Total mediation was supported in the case of intrinsic motivation, introjected regulation and indentified regulation in the relationship between autonomy-supportive coaches and sport commitment players. The findings underline the importance of perceived autonomy-supportive coaches in motivation and sport commitment players. The results provide support Self-determination Theory in elite players

Abstract
Despite the importance of physical activity is clearly accepted by all, motivation and participation in physical education declines with age. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the social support behavior of physical education teachers and motivation (absence of motivation) of student in P.E activities. This is a descriptive and correlation study. In doing so, we chose 381 one of high school students of Bookan city through multi-level cluster random method, as statistical samples, and to fill out, the questionnaire of motivation inventory – physical education (AI-PE) of Shen et.al (2010) with reliability (α=.78), and interpersonal behavior scale (IBS) of Pelletier et.al (2008) with reliability (α=.81). For data analyzing we used the Spearman correlation coefficient and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results showed that there are negative and significant relationships between subscales of social support behavior (i.e. autonomy support, competence support, and relatedness support) with motivation, respectively (r=-0.207, r=-0.255, r=-0.216, p≤0.01). Also, according result of Structural equation modeling (SEM) social support behavior of physical education teachers effected on students’ motivation (0.21). According to the fact that, reduction of P.E teachers’ social support behavior may result students’ motivation, we recommend that P.E teachers increase the amount of social support, to finally improve students’ participation at school P.E activities.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine of the factorial structure of the Self- Regulation Questionnaire in college physical education class (SRQ-PE). 277 students were selected by cluster random sampling in Urmia universities. The results of confirmatory factor analysis determined 5-factor model for the structure of the SRQ-PE with 71.03% of total variance. The confirmatory factor analysis showed acceptable goodness of fit indices for the data among students. Also, the significant positive relationship of intrinsic and identified regulation with PE-enjoyment and intention to continue of physical activity, confirmed the concurrent validity. The items for all sub-scales have a high internal consistency above of 0.75 of Cronbach's alpha. The findings suggest that SRQ-PE is a valid and reliable measurement for assessing the motivational self-regulation in college PE class. As a conclusion, the results demonstrate the importance of developing self-determination in PE, as it is associated with desirable behavioural outcomes.

Abstract
This study examined the comparison of exercise self-efficacy and indices of well-being based on different orientations to activities among physically-motion disables and veterans. 123 physically-motion disables and veterans filled the questionnaires of exercise self-efficacy, hedonia and eudemonia motives for activities, positive and negative affect and subjective vitality.The results showed that only eudemonia motive positively associated with positive affect and vitality. Exercise self-efficacy positively associated with eudemonic well-being. There were significant differences between different orientation to activities on positive affect and vitality. People whose lives were high in eudemonia had higher degrees of positive affect and vitality than people whose lives in the lower degree of both hedonia and eudemonia (empty life). Also, people whose lives were in both high eudemonia and hedonia (full life) had the higher degree of positive affect than people whose lives in empty life.The finding show of crucial role of eudemonia on well-being among physically-motion disables and veterans, and the combination of hedonia and eudemonia may be associated with optimal well-being.
