Abstract:   (4063 Views)
Planning and control are described as two blades of scissors. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the socioeconomic status of participants in order to scientifically plan and determine the performance evaluation indicators for proper control. The aim of this study was to identify the socioeconomic status of participants in sport for all. The research method was descriptive – survey and the population consisted of all participants in the sport for all in Tehran city. In this study, socioeconomic status comprised of the components: housing, job, income, education of participants, their spouse and children, the amount of study, domestic and foreign travels, spouse’s job, personal and recreational facilities. A researcher-made checklist was used after confirming its content validity and determining its reliability (α=0.84). Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (independent 2-sample t test). Results showed that most participants belonged to the lower (53.8%) and middle (43.2%) classes and lowest percentage (3%) belonged to the upper class. Also, no significant differences were observed in socioeconomic status between men and women. SWOT analysis was used to analyze the results and to extract policies and strategies based on the facts. Then, practical suggestions along with predetermined performance evaluation indicators were provided.
