Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of exercise and fitness education on physical fitness factors. 84 healthy non-athlete student (mean age 12.5±0.49 yrs, mean height 153.8±6.1 cm, mean wieght 46.25±7.3 kg) who had not regular activities for more than 6 months were voluntarily participated in this study. They were randomly divided among three groups: training-education (n=28), training (n=28) and control (n=28). The health-sports, the researcher made scientific the Dessi-Ryan motication questionaires and health-relaeted physical fitness factors were used to collect data. To analyse data MANOVA, simple variance analysis and LSD were used. Results showed a significant differences among groups. The follow-up test results showed that the cardio-respiratory endurance in training-education group were significantly greater than other groups. Flexibility and abdominal endurance muscles in control group were lesser than other groups. In conclusion, training along with education can have a better effect on physical fitness factors.

Abstract
Introduction: Physical activity is an important factor in maintaining of psychological and physical health, leisure time enrichment, development of social relations, avoid from mechanically life, return to nature and is way for reduce of stress and risk factors in public health. The purpose of this study is analysis of influencing factors on health ways usage in different points of Urmia city (with emphasis on use of body fitness units in parks). Methodology: Research strategy was descriptive- analytical and the method was questionnaire field study. Population includes the all of citizens above 20 years of Urmia city that was 96141 people, and sample of research consists of 384 peoples on the base of Morgan table. Research tools were consisted a researcher- made questionnaire that Reliability was (α=0.91), and was base on 5 point Lickert scale. Data were analyzed by factor analysis in meaningful level (p<0.05). Finding: The results showed that five factors extracted from the factor analysis rotation which expressed 5 dimensions of effective health ways usage consisted of quality of facilities (. /21.83), cultural factors (. /17.28), social factors (. /11.99), sub-structural factors (. /5.25) and finally environmental factors (. /2.74). Discussion: According to the results, all factors of this study have significant impact on the health way Usage. So, quality of facilities is the most important estimated factor that needs to be implemented effective strategies by the responsible entities.

Abstract
In this correlational study, physical activity of girls’ has been predicted using ecological approach. For this purpose, 374 girls aged 10-12 years selected and completed Self-report questionnaire and physical activity children with reminders 7 days (PAQ-C), Perceived physical competence questionnaire (PPFS), Perceived School Climate Questionnaire for physical activity (Am & et al,2005) and Social Support Questionnaire (Grier and et al, 2008). The BMI index and Lincoln Oseretsky Motor Skills Test was calculated for all subjects. Multiple regression analysis showed Children's fitness, physical competence, perceived climate of the physical environment and social support of friends and family (social environment) are significant predictors for amount of children's physical activity (P <0.5). In this regard, based on effect coefficients it would be say that Fitness (10%), physical competence (15%), Motor Skills (12%), physical environment (23%) and social environment (24%) can predict children's physical activity. According to results, it would be suggested using the well- known ecological variables to predict children's activities.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of Persian version of exercise dependence scale, prevalence of exercise dependence and some related factors in male and female athletes clubs of Urmia. Subjects of this research were 325 athletes in the sample (206 males; 119 females, mean age 28.06±8 years) various team and individual sports (team sports N= 195, individual sports N=130) in the form of voluntary and available attend in this study. Hausenblas and Downs (2002) exercise dependence scale 21 with seven subscale was the instruments of the study. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was used to determine validity of questionnaire, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to determine internal consistency. The results showed that the validity of exercise dependence scale 21 is desirable. Also the results showed that in this study the prevalence of exercise dependence between men and women population is not very different from each other and exercise dependence in individual sports is twice to team sports. Since exercise dependence may exist among a wide range of athletes, therefore, in order to address the adverse effects of this factor, it is necessary to examine the underlying causes and trying to modify it.

Physical activity is related to health factors such as motor competence, health related Physical fitness, perceived motor competence. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of mediation of cardiovascular fitness, perceived motor competence in relation between actual motor competence and physical activity of boys in middle and end childhood. Research is a correlation type. 204 students (mean age 9.9 and standard deviation of 1/05) from the four Tehran schools participated in this study. The motor competence was measured using the Bruninks-Oseretsky-based product-oriented (BOT-2), perceived motor competence, and physical activity, using the PSDQ and the physical activity questionnaire for older children (PAQC), respectively. The 600 yard running / walking test was used to measure cardiovascular endurance. Pearson's test results showed a moderate to weak relationship between all variables. Also, the results of regression path analysis indicated that perceived motor competence, not cardiovascular fitness, mediates the relationship between real motor competence and physical activity. Educational and practice strategies should target the development of fundament motor skills and perceived motor competence to increase the participation of male students in the physical activity.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between motor competence, cardiovascular fitness test and physical activity of adolescents with the role of mediation of perceived competence. The research sample consisted of 386 adolescent boys. Perceived competence was measured using Physical Ability scale of the short form of the Marshall Self-Descriptive Questionnaire (2010). From the pedometer And physical activity questionnaire for older children was used to measure physical activity, and using Bruininks-Oseretsky Test test for measuring motor competence and a 1600-meter test for cardiovascular fitness test. The results showed a significant correlation between motor competence, perceived competence, cardiovascular fitness test and physical activity. Perceived competence mediates association between motor competence and physical activity, fitness and cardiovascular fitness test. Finally, the results of the model showed that perceived competence had the most impact on the participation of adolescent physical activity. Also, motor competence has a greater effect on cardiovascular fitness test than perceived competence. According to the results of the research, educational programs should be designed and designed according to the importance of motor competence and perceived competence to improve participation of physical activity and physical fitness of adolescents.
