THE REALITY OF ADMINISTRATIVE EFFICIENCY AMONG DECISION-MAKERS IN COLLEGES OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORTS SCIENCES FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THEIR FACULTY MEMBERS IN SEVERAL IRAQI UNIVERSITIES

Abstract

The aim of the research was to understand the administrative efficiency of academic decision-makers in the Colleges of Physical Education and Sports Sciences from the perspective of their faculty members. The human field included faculty members from three universities: Mosul, Tikrit, and Kirkuk. The period covered the period from November 1, 2022, to March 26, 2023, and the location was the Colleges of Physical Education and Sports Sciences in these three universities. The researcher defined the study population by listing the active and continuing faculty members during the academic year 2022-2023 in the Colleges of Physical Education and Sports Sciences at the three universities (Mosul, Tikrit, and Kirkuk), totaling 322 faculty members. The researcher selected a sample representing 85% of the population, which included 274 faculty members. The sample was divided into three groups: exploratory, reliability, and application samples. Among the key recommendations were the need to employ the correct scientific efficiency in the appropriate positions within the Colleges of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, encourage academic leadership to hold workshops and technical courses within the college, and ensure the provision of an effective organizational climate suitable for the nature of the college. Additionally, the research emphasized creating a healthy working environment for faculty members in the Colleges of Physical Education and Sports Sciences.
