Abstract

This research aimed to systematically review the effects of artificial intelligence (AI) on sports and physical education. In this research synthesis, the impacts of artificial intelligence on sports and physical education were investigated from different aspects. The current research approach was qualitative and used a meta-synthesis strategy. The synthesis and content analysis techniques were used to explain the topic under investigation. MAXQDA software was also used for the analysis of the data. In order to find the effects of artificial intelligence on sports and physical education, recent research studies and documents were systematically selected, analyzed, and categorized. The study population was from the researches of the last few years, which were categorized and screened during the content analysis, and about 10 studies that met the conditions and criteria were selected purposefully. So that it was then coded and classified, and on this basis, theoretical foundations and main themes were extracted. Then, using content analysis, about 5 subcategories were identified, which were the general effects of artificial intelligence on physical education, improvement and reform of physical education, the effect of artificial intelligence on physical education learners, the effect of artificial intelligence on physical education instructors, and the challenges and limitations of artificial intelligence in sports and physical education.
