According to the value of beta coefficient, the amount of this effect was 0.446. Among the four factors of personal brand; ethical and political factors of the brand had a significant effect on immigration, and personal and functional factors had no effect. Also, the personal branding of athletes has had an effect on the social, economic, political and professional aspects of sports immigration, respectively. Social networks enable athletes to influence the immigration process in a digital space. Immigration is made up of several layers of athletes, owners, managers, representatives, officials and members of the media and it includes not only economic factors through marketing strategies, but also political, historical, geographical, social and cultural factors.

In the first study, this research designed sports posts with the content of affective and instrumental benefits of sport, and in the second study, it measured their effect on sports intention, emotional satisfaction, and recall among students. The purpose of the first study was to design and evaluate Instagram sports posts with captions of affective and instrumental benefits of exercise along with pictures in eight separate conditions, and the results obtained from the first study indicated that the designed posts are suitable for each condition. The second study was also a 2 x 4 experimental design, in which the participants in eight separate conditions online viewed the Instagram sports posts designed in the first study. The results also indicated that there was a significant increase in the intention to follow the sport compared to the baseline in the emotional educational conditions (t(71)=-5.45, P < 0.001) and the physical educational conditions (t(55)=-3.26, P < 0.002). has it. Also, affective and instrumental informative sports posts had more emotional satisfaction and recall scores than other posts. Therefore, viewing informative Instagram sports posts with affective and instrumental captions has been more effective in encouraging sports activities compared to neutral, seductive and textual sports posts. This study provides evidence for the use of caption-related affective and instrumental visual content in Instagram sports posts to motivate people to exercise.

Abstract
The aim of the current research was to investigate the causal relationship between satisfaction with the quality of virtual learning and the academic performance of graduate physical education students in the northwestern provinces of the country during the Corona era through engagement as a mediator. This research was correlation type with structural equation modeling approach. The statistical population of graduate students of physical education in northwest universities of the country was formed (N=283) and the sample size was 163 selected according to Morgan's table by stratified sampling. Three Questionnaires were used to investigate the research variables. The validity of the research questionnaires was done first by using the opinion of experts to check the content validity. Then reliability was evaluated through Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Finally, the construct validity was evaluated based on model fit indices in PLS modeling software. Based on path analysis, it was found that satisfaction with the quality of virtual learning has a causal relationship with academic performance. The results showed that the variable of satisfaction with quality of virtual learning through the mediation of engagement has a significant relationship with perceived academic performance and mediation relationship was confirmed. It can be concluded that in order to be satisfied with the quality of virtual learning and also to increase the academic performance of graduate students of physical education, professors should use educational planning and new virtual methods for teaching,while the engagement of students in learning and being active in virtual classes will be facilitate and helpful.
