The use of coaching as a developmental intervention for students has received increased attention during the past decade. Numerous authors have suggested that the working relationship between coach and coachee constitutes an essential condition to the success of effective coaching. This study was aimed of designing a measure for coach_ coachee relationship and examining its validity and reliability. The concept of coach_coachee relationship was operationalised based on indexes collected from hadith’s of Islamic religious elders such as holy prophet Mohammad, Imam Ali, Imam Sadjad, Imam Sadiq and so on and texts of religious scientists such as Qazzali and Shahid-e-sani for teacher-student relationship. A branch of University Of Applied Science And Technology in Tehran was selected as a case study and students of 9 classes of architecture, graphics and management were chosen through stratified sampling and a questionnaire was distributed among 285 students. To develop the measure, an exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was done and four key factors were identified as "Coach's teaching and ethical behaviour", "Coachee's classroom behaviour", "Coachee's respectful behaviour" and "Divine purpose of coaching"; in addition, load factor of indexes as well as significance of factors and their relation to variables were confirmed.
