Abstract :

The purpose of this study was to present a model for insurance development in Iranian sports. This research was mixed research (qualitative-quantitative). The statistical population of qualitative research included all the elites in the field of insurance in sports. Based on the selection of snowballs, 15 people were identified as the sample until they reached theoretical saturation. In a small part, the statistical population included all 69 sports insurance experts. The statistical sample was considered a whole number. The data collection tool in the qualitative part included a semi-structured interview and in the quantitative part included a researcher-made questionnaire. In order to analyze the research data in the qualitative part, open, axial and selective coding and in the quantitative part, the structural equation method was used. The results indicated that insurance development factors (causal, contextual, intervening, strategies, and consequences) had a significant effect on the main phenomenon of insurance in sports. The results of this study showed that the process of insurance development in sports requires attention to a series of causal, contextual, and intervening factors; Therefore, the final model presented in this research can be a complete guide for the development of insurance in Iranian sports.
