Abstract
The purpose of this research was to determine the adaptability, validity and reliability of Persian version of the self -presentation in exercise questionnaire among athletes. For this purpose, 381 athletes with different levels of skill completed the self-presentation in exercise questionnaire (Connery et al., 2000). Results of confirmatory factorial analysis, Cronbach’s alpha and intra-class correlation coefficients showed that this questionnaire was supported the 2-factorial and 14-item structural of the initial questionnaire, and confirm construct validity. Also, the reliability of Persian version of self -presentation in exercise questionnaire was confirmed. Therefore, the Persian version of self-presentation in exercise questionnaire has acceptable reliability and validity in Iranian athletes with different level of skills, and coaches, researchers and athletes can use this questionnaire.
