| Awareness of goals of participation in sport and leisure activities is one of the major targets of sport marketers. Serious leisure inventory and measure (SLIM) scale is one of the valid tools made to be aware of the consequences of participation in the leisure activities in the management of leisure time. The aim of the present study was to examine the validity and reliability of the Persian version of the serious leisure inventory and measure scale in premier league spectators (summer 2017). The original version of the scale has 18 subscales and 54 constructs. 670 men (18-65 years old) who watched football premier league matches purposively, randomly and voluntarily completed SLIM scale (Gould et al., 2008). Confirmatory factor analysis was used to estimate construct validity of the scale. The reliability of the scale was calculated using Cronbach's alpha. The results showed that the Persian version of the scale supported the original structure (6 constructs and 18 subscales) and its reliability and validity were confirmed. Therefore, the Persian version of the serious leisure inventory and measure scale is recommended for awareness of the outcomes of sport spectators’ participation so sport marketers can design purposive marketing programs based on this scale. |
