Abstract

This study aimed to develop and apply a scale to measure the current reality of the ideal organizational environment in colleges of physical education and sports sciences from the perspective of their students, and to identify the existing state of this environment as perceived by the students.


The researcher used the descriptive survey method because it fits the nature of the study problem. The study population included students from the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences at Al-Mustansiriyah University, totaling 300 individuals. The sample was divided into several groups. The researcher then created a questionnaire for the scale to identify valid statements, which consisted of 30 items.


The Likert method was used to create the questionnaire, employing a five-point scale to show the degree of agreement with each statement: Always, Often, Sometimes, Rarely, Never.


A pilot study was conducted ahead of the main application with a sample of 20 students on January 22, 2025, to ensure proper conditions during the main test. The scale was then used on a construction sample of 150 students from February 3 to March 2, 2025. Following this, the scale was administered to the main study sample, which included 100 instructors, from March 11 to April 2, 2025. The results were statistically analyzed and discussed.
