Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the components of the comfort-seeking lifestyle and its role in physical and sports activities in schools in order to achieve a fundamental model. The method of this research is in the form of fuzzy Delphi, and after extracting the challenges related to school sports, questionnaires were conducted through interviews with 20 coaches and teachers of sports in Tehran's District 5 in order to prioritize these challenges and also examine their impact on the sports field. The research results indicate that the following factors: the emphasis of authorities and families on academic matters rather than physical activity, interest in computer games, students' lifestyle changes towards low physical activity, limited hours of sports compared to other study hours, fear of facing group games due to the COVID-19 pandemic, lack of definition of new sports during sports hours, isolation and tendency towards solitude during sports hours, obesity and excessive fatigue, inappropriate diet, and weakness during sports hours, have the greatest impact on students' physical and sports activities in order of priority. The use of communication skills compensates for the isolated and passive lifestyle of students in schools and can compensate for its shortcomings by forming communication networks and support in schools. The research results also indicate the confirmation of the relationship between components related to communication skills and students' sports activities in schools.
