Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to set a relational model of self-determind with sport ethics of elite athletes in Iran. In terms of its objective the research was applied using correlation method. The statistical population of the research consisted of all the football players of the Azadegan league in the season, 2016-2017. The statistical sample consisted of 223 players who were selected randomly. To collect data, the researcher used a questionnaire of sports ethics and sport motivation. Its validity was obtained by ten professors and its reliability by Cronbach's alpha, being 0/88 and 0/79 respectively. To analyze the data, the structural equation method was used to study the causal relationships between the observed variables. Findings show that there is a positive and significant relationship between self- determind and sports ethics. The results of the confirmatory path analysis test indicated the fitting of relationship between self-determind and sports ethics. All factor loadings between components and agents were at a reasonable level and the model had a proper fitting which finally confirmed the conceptual model of the research. Therefore, on the basis of these findings, determined, ethical goals and specific performance can excite or direct the fields of the appearance of sports ethics. Also for the formation of ethical behavior, objective backgrounds and real performance over cognitive and mental contexts can have deeper effects. So it's better with applying objective behaviors such as the selection of coaches with good and logical behaviors and employment a sports psychologist and objectivizing the results of good athletic behaviors, action to institutionalize the ethical behaviors of athletes.
