  the purpose of this research was the effect of physical fitness exercises on dynamic balance and static balance in hearing impaired girls aged 13 to 15 years with vestibular system dysfunction in Mashhad. The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of this research included all hearing-impaired girls with bilateral vestibular problems aged 13 to 15 in Mashhad. The statistical sample was selected in a targeted manner and randomly selected in two experimental and control groups (12 people in each group). The experimental group participated in a physical fitness program for 8 weeks, 3 sessions per week and 60 minutes per session. The control group only did daily and normal activities. Balance tests were taken from the participants before and after the training period. The statistical method of independent t-test was used using spss21 software to compare between two groups. The results showed that physical fitness exercises increased both static balance and dynamic balance in 13 to 15-year-old hearing-impaired girls with vestibular dysfunction (P<0.05). This indicates that hearing impaired children can improve their balance by participating in a physical fitness training program that includes 8 weeks and 3 sessions per week for 60 minutes.

  the purpose of this research was to compare personal, social, and sports identity in deaf sportsmen and non- athletes in Mashhad. The research was done based on the analytical descriptive method. The statistical population included deaf women who were members of the Mashhad Center for the Deaf and were residents of Mashhad. Based on the simple random sampling method and using the Krejcie and Morgan table, 359 people (952 deaf athletes and 247 deaf non-athletes) were selected as a statistical sample. Standard questionnaires of sports identity (Borour, 1993), social identity (Safariniya, 2011) and personal identity (Adamz, 1986) were used to collect data. The reliability of the tool was calculated using Cronbach's alpha and was 0.83, 0.74 and 0.81 respectively. Independent t-tests and one-sample t-tests were used to analyze the data. There was a significant difference between deaf athletes and non-athletes based on individual identity, sports identity and social identity (P<0.05). Individual identity was at a suitable level in deaf female athletes, but not at a suitable level in deaf non-athlete women (P<0.05). Sports identity was at a suitable level in deaf sportswomen, but not at a suitable level in deaf non-athletes (P<0.05). Social identity was at an appropriate level in deaf sportswomen, but not at an appropriate level in deaf non-athletes (P<0.05). It seems that engaging in sports in deaf women improves their individual identity, social identity and sports identity. Manuscript profile
