Subsequently, the composite reliability and reliability of each component of the study were calculated, and the results indicated the reliability of the measurement tool. Furthermore, the discriminant and convergent validity of the questionnaire confirmed its acceptable validity. For data analysis, structural equation modeling (SEM) was conducted using Smart PLS4 software. The results demonstrated the factor loadings, significance levels, and the relationships among the main and sub-themes of the holographic organization model in IRIB from an intellectual capital perspective. Additionally, the model’s fitness and alignment with the context of IRIB were assessed as appropriate. Therefore, it can be concluded that this model, by focusing on holographic structural capital, holographic leadership, holographic human capital, holographic relational capital, and holographic technology and knowledge, plays a significant role in the National Media Organization.

Organizations of the 21st century are different from those of the past and require new leadership methods. Traditional organizational leadership styles are not helpful for the new era. One of the new methods is utilizing neuroscience and brain science in leadership. Neuroscience-based leadership, as an emerging domain, aims to improve and enhance leadership activities and obtain new positive methods for creativity, innovation, and employee commitment. Today, leadership in educational organizations, especially in education, is of great importance. Educational organizations are those that have knowledge-based outputs. On the other hand, educational organizations face challenges and problems, including the lack of specific leadership mechanisms to improve performance, insufficient knowledge among leaders in interacting with employees, and the application of traditional leadership. Furthermore, a comprehensive model of neuroscience-based leadership in educational organizations has not yet been developed, and if a model has been presented in other countries, it has been tailored to their unique structural, cultural, and human characteristics and has not been ecologically validated. For these reasons, the researcher, identifying this as a necessary need, has focused on enhancing existing findings and expanding the literature of previous research, and this study has been conducted to provide a neuroscience-based leadership model in the education sector of Lorestan province.

The research is practical in nature and, in terms of execution, is considered a mixed qualitative and quantitative study. The qualitative method was conducted in two phases; in the first phase, a meta-synthesis was utilized. For the meta-synthesis, the 8-step method by Xiao and Watson (2017) was employed, which includes setting questions, developing a systematic review protocol, searching literary background, screening and selection, quality control, data extraction, analyzing and combining findings, and reporting findings. A total of 37 selected articles were used for the meta-synthesis, and primary dimensions and components were extracted using coding. In the second qualitative phase, a sample of 15 individuals was purposefully selected to form a Delphi group. Two Delphi rounds and data synthesis were conducted, resulting in consensus and theoretical adequacy. Reliability and validity in the qualitative section were confirmed by the expertise of the Delphi panel. In the quantitative phase, a researcher-constructed questionnaire was used. In the quantitative questionnaire, the content and face validity method was utilized. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to determine reliability. The Cronbach's alpha value exceeding 0.7 confirmed the suitability of the questionnaire's tool. In the quantitative section, from a statistical population of 1222 individuals, 292 samples were selected using Cochran's formula and stratified random sampling. Structural equation modeling and Smart PLS-3 software were used to analyze and examine the data.

For modeling neuroscience-based leadership in educational organizations, 17 components were identified and extracted. The components are: foresight, organizational effectiveness, strategic use of human resources, individual autonomy, flexibility, experiential thinking, paradigm shifts in leadership, high-level thinking, communication abilities, employee motivation abilities, problem-solving, learning behaviors, focus, change management, emotional management, alignment between technology, processes, and employees, and emotional intelligence. The results of this research indicate that all components have been confirmed, and overall, the model has a good fit. This model is based on strong scientific foundations as each component is supported by one or more scientific studies.

With these neuroscience-based leadership components in educational organizations, managers and organizational leaders become empowered and can display appropriate and constructive behavior in their interactions and relationships with employees. Understanding how brain and nerve processes work can influence the behavior and decisions of organizational leaders and help managers implement more effective and better practices for educational management. Utilizing these components makes the work environments more friendly for the human resources' minds and brains, enabling organizational managers and leaders to move forward on the path to achieving organizational goals.

The purpose of this research is to present a conceptual model of organizational democracy with an emphasis on the development of psychological capital in the employees of National Iranian Oil Company.

The necessity of optimal policymaking in the petrochemical industry has consistently been highlighted as one of the strategic priorities in the country's overarching documents, such that the role of these policies in securing the national interests of current and future generations cannot be overlooked. For this reason, considering future-based scenarios regarding the petrochemical industry, especially the establishment of inland hubs within the developmental horizon of the country, is crucial and this is conducted with the aim of planning with a futurology approach for the development of inland petrochemical hubs. 

In this study, qualitative content analysis, scenario formulation, prioritization of propositions, robust planning under conditions of uncertainty, and strategic evaluation methods have been employed across three phases. In this context, interviews were conducted with 20 experts. 

Based on the research findings, optimistic scenarios are predicated on the reduction of sanctions, economic stability and exchange rate, foreign financing, participation of domestic investors, and access to technology, provided that the government is directly involved. Achieving these conditions requires a shift in foreign policy aimed at sanction relief, which, in turn, is expected to facilitate the realization of other conditions. In moderate scenarios, the importance of sanction reduction remains vital, and without it, the development of petrochemical hubs seems unattainable. 

Accordingly, the manner of government intervention in these projects and its collaboration with other institutions and various sectors will play a significant role in the status of these projects.

This research has provided a model for analyzing policies to deal with the water crisis in Iran with regard to climate and population changes in a twenty-year horizon with a system dynamics approach. model was designed according to the hydrological cycle of water and the effective representation of the security of water resources in the country with Vansim software. Surface water sources, underground water, dam water and population are considered as accumulation variables of model. The required statistics were extracted from the Iranian Statistics Center, the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Agricultural Jihad for 2017-2037. Based on the research model, the state of water resources in the country shows a downward trend during the mentioned time horizon. various policies regarding dealing with the water crisis and its impact on the security of country's water resources were examined using the designed model. dimensions of the model were changed under 5 scenarios and its effect on the security of water resources was investigated. The investigated scenarios are in the two sectors of supply and demand management of water resources. These scenarios include climate change and reduction of renewable water, low water productivity in different sectors, population increase and water return from different sectors. These scenarios change the security of water resources according to their nature. At the end, the conceptual model of analysis of policies to deal with the water crisis is presented and practical suggestions were adopted by integrating water supply and demand management to deal with this crisis.

The decline in environmental quality has raised public concern about environmental issues. Even in the greenest countries, policymakers face the significant challenge of understanding why environmental policies are often ineffective in addressing these problems. According to the 2024 Global Environmental Performance Index, Iran ranks 133rd out of 180 countries, reflecting a poor global standing and numerous environmental crises, including ecosystem conversion, biodiversity loss, increasing dust storms, drying wetlands and lakes, water resource depletion, land subsidence, and air and soil pollution. Contributing factors include a lack of robust development plans, ineffective environmental policies, outdated laws and regulations, and inadequate coordination among agencies and organizations. These issues underscore the urgent need for effective environmental policymaking to address the growing crises. This study, recognizing the importance of the formulation stage in public policymaking, proposes a model for developing environmental policies in Iran to address these challenges and reduce environmental pollution.

This study employed a qualitative research approach, incorporating both library and field research methods for data collection. Data were gathered through note-taking and expert interviews. The analysis was conducted using a thematic analysis strategy, chosen for its ability to extract meaningful insights from qualitative data, such as interview transcripts. The coding and thematic analysis process followed a comprehensive, step-by-step approach. Using purposive sampling, the research team interviewed 13 experts, including university professors, environmental researchers, executives from the Environmental Protection Organization, and managers involved in environmental policymaking. The interviews continued until thematic saturation was achieved, indicating no new themes or concepts were emerging. To ensure reliability, the test-retest reliability index was applied to the coding of the interviews. In this approach, a few randomly selected interviews were coded and then re-coded after a certain period to compare the consistency of the codes. This technique helped verify the reliability of the thematic analysis process.

The study results indicate that a model for formulating environmental policies to achieve sustainable development comprises eight key themes: economic factors, social factors, environmental factors, political factors, legal requirements, institutional capacity, key stakeholders in policy formulation, and the process of formulating environmental policies. Each theme plays a crucial role in policy development. Addressing environmental issues without a collective approach to these themes is likely to be ineffective. A fragmented approach to implementing these themes can lead to disruptions in development and significant harm to environmental resources. The results emphasize the need for a comprehensive approach that considers all these factors to effectively address environmental challenges and work toward sustainable developmen.

To effectively tackle environmental crises, a holistic approach must be embraced in environmental policy formulation. Social, political, legal, and institutional factors must be carefully considered to avoid severe challenges and complications. Active participation from community organizations, NGOs, citizens, and local stakeholders in policymaking can play a significant role in resolving environmental issues. This requires not only the restructuring of institutional frameworks to strengthen environmental governance but also a review of existing legal systems to ensure they are conducive to effective policymaking. It also highlights the importance of combining bottom-up and top-down policies to improve environmental performance indicators. Bottom-up opportunities from local communities and civil society, along with top-down engagement from legislative, executive, and judicial branches, are critical to shaping effective policies.

The export of knowledge-based products with high technology is considered very important for the national economy of developing countries due to its influential role in creating added value and earning currency. On the other hand, the organizational adherence of employees is also vital for the effective functioning of knowledge-based companies, and its absence causes these organizations to bear a lot of costs. In this regard, this research was carried out with the aim of developing a model of export development of knowledge-based companies in the field of electronics and electricity, focusing on improving the organizational commitment of employees in Iran. This research was carried out using a mixed method (qualitative-quantitative) which extracted 17 indicators of the desired model in the qualitative part and by using the content analysis of valid researches and determining the relationship between the indicators to achieve the model in the quantitative part. It was done by relying on the Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) method. Analyzing the qualitative and quantitative data of the research was the achievement of a six-level model, the most effective indicators of this model being the appropriate working environment in knowledge-based companies, internal and external communication of knowledge-based companies, the state of labor demand in export markets and special characteristics in the sixth level of this model. were knowledge-based companies.

various related scenarios. The study aims to identify and assess different financial and investment policies that could enhance investment attraction in Iran's oil industry.

The study employs system dynamics and content analysis to develop the model. The statistical population for the content analysis includes upstream oil industry documents and related articles on investment. In the quantitative section, employees, managers, and experts in the oil industry were selected as the sample population. Data analysis was conducted using Vensim software, and nine different scenarios were developed to evaluate financial and investment policies.

The results revealed that intermediary financing, with an increase of 128.854 units, was identified as the most attractive policy. Debt-based financing, with an increase of 108.333 units, and financing based on underground reserves, with an increase of 69.580 units, followed. These findings highlight the importance of diversifying financial resources and utilizing innovative financial structures in Iran's oil industry.

The study concludes that a combination of different financial resources and the application of diversified financial policies can significantly contribute to attracting more investments and reducing financial risks in Iran's oil industry. These findings align with previous studies on financial and investment policies and provide valuable insights for policymakers in Iran's oil sector.

For 30 years, global development has demanded a new approach for cooperation between government, people and businesses to achieve health goals. The aim of the current research is to Design a Pattern to reduce the government's tenure in the field of health by approaching the government as a responsible observer in line with the realization of the general policies of Article 44 of the Constitution. The research method is a combination of qualitative and quantitative. In the qualitative part, by using 200 articles related to structural reform medels in other countries, as well as internal laws and regulations and experts' opinions, tried to explain the dimensions, components and indicators of the research, including 5 key dimensions related to the field of governance, 11 components and 57 indicators, and 9 methods of reducing tenure and designing 2 questionnaires. Finally, to analyze the quantitative data of the research, the structural equation method was used using the combined ISM-DEMATEL method to explain the relationships between dimensions, components and indicators (the first questionnaire) and Shannon's entropy method to prioritize the methods of reducing tenure (the second questionnaire). The result of this research shows that this is a complex but inevitable policy that must be determined when it starts. It also recommends interventions in several fields, such as the need to formulate general goals and policies in the field of health with a comprehensive approach, the key players of which are the government, the private sector, civil society, and the health sector.

one of the strategic priorities in the above documents. Iran is one of the leading energy producers in the world due to its rich oil and gas reserves. Therefore, it is very necessary to consider the scenarios based on the future regarding the petrochemical industries, especially the creation of intraterritorial hubs. In the present research, among the methods of qualitative content analysis, scenario explanation, proposition prioritization, sustainable planning in the conditions of uncertainty, and strategy evaluation, it was done in three phases. Based on this, 20 experts have been interviewed. The results of the research showed that the optimistic scenarios are based on the reduction of sanctions, economic stability and exchange rate, foreign financing, participation of domestic investors, and access to technology, but provided that the government has direct participation. Establishing these conditions requires making changes in foreign policy with the aim of removing sanctions, after which it is expected that other conditions will also be established. In medium scenarios, the importance of reducing sanctions is still maintained, and without it, we cannot hope for the development of petrochemical hubs. Other conditions of optimistic scenarios with the help of the government in carrying out this project are established in these scenarios. Therefore, the way the government intervenes in carrying out these projects will be decisive.

Considering the development of a knowledge-based economy in the world and Iran, identifying the effective components in the development of knowledge-based companies in the medical field is essential in line with the policy and economic development of the country.

In this qualitative research, data was collected through in-depth and semi-structured interviews from faculty members, specialists and managers of organizations in charge of the country's knowledge-based ecosystem. The statistical population was selected by snowball sampling, and the scientific interviews continued until the theoretical saturation stage, and finally 19 interviews were conducted. All data were analyzed based on Brovan and Clark's six-step theme analysis method.

From data analysis, three main themes including the factors of " revision of the general policies of the country", "creating a suitable economic platform" and "revision of the performance of institutions in charge of knowledge-based economy" and 37 subthemes were extracted which were regarded as effective factors in the development of knowledge-based companies in the medical field.

It is necessary to review the general and executive policies of the country for the development of knowledge-based companies, and the government must provide the basis for the development of knowledge-based companies by creating a suitable economic context, fighting economic rents, creating economic stability and reforming the banking network. It is also necessary to review the processes in the Deputy of Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy and the Ministry of Health, Treatment and Medical Education.

It is a special issue in the field of professional ethics and in fact it is respect for humanity. The current research was carried out with the aim of providing an ethical-strategic model of a competent characteristic with an organizational agility approach at the University of Medical Sciences of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province.

The current research was developmental-applied and qualitative. The statistical population of this study was academic experts in human resource management and senior managers of the University of Medical Sciences, 14 of whom were selected by purposive sampling. The researcher's questionnaire tool was made by Delphi and the data was analyzed using Delphi technique.

The Delphi questionnaire was sent to the expert panel members in three stages to get their opinions, which led to the identification of 29 components and 9 after that, and the conceptual model of the research was formed.

The research results showed that meritocracy components such as 1) educational competencies, 2) personal and behavioral competencies, 3) general and professional competencies, 4) cultural and value competencies, 5) management competencies. knowledge and innovation, 6) organizational structural agility, 7) agility in providing educational-research and medical services, 8) human capital agility and 9) technology agility, information technology systems and infrastructures. They are effective in organizational agility.

Today, the optimal governance paradigm is used on a wide scale from local to international level. According to many experts and experts in this field of research, the most important and effective theory on the way to achieving the desired governance is "decentralization of (political-economic) power" (Chigbu, 2021). Decentralization has been considered as one of the indicators of reducing power distance. Decentralization, means the delegation of power (in political and economic matters), leads to a reduction in the power gap between different levels and the power gap between the government and the people (Rodríguez, 2018). The main problem of this research is that currently there is no firm determination in the country's political and policy-making system to realize the model of decentralization and delegation of authority to local authorities (such as governorates, etc.). On the other hand, it has been found that simply increasing decentralization does not increase welfare; rather, the necessary infrastructure for handing over affairs to the provinces should be evaluated first, and then the realization and improvement of social welfare in the provinces (Khanzadi et al., 1400). From a theoretical point of view, not much effort has been made to provide a political-economic decentralization model, which indicates a major research gap in governance literature. With all the aforementioned, the question of how decentralization helps to realize the desired governance, due to the disagreements and deficiencies that exist in the field of theoretical literature and research background, remains without a firm and definitive answer; Therefore, the main question of this research is: "What is the model of decentralization (political-economic) in Iran's provinces in the direction of good governance?"

This research is practical in terms of purpose, which was done with a mixed (qualitative-quantitative) approach. The statistical community in the qualitative section includes university experts who have a history of education in the field of public administration and valid scientific articles in this field. To determine the samples of this research and to determine this group of experts, a non-probability and purposeful sampling (Judgmental Sampling) method was used. The criterion for determining the sample size in this research is to reach theoretical saturation, which was achieved after fourteen interviews.The snowball technique was used for sampling. The statistical population of the quantitative stage was the senior and middle managers of the governorate and the program and budget organization and managers of general offices in the provinces of Tehran, Isfahan, Kurdistan, and Khuzestan (N=183). Considering that the number of the studied community is limited, the entire studied community has been used completely and non-randomly as the investigated sample. The main tool of data collection in the qualitative part is the semi-structured in-depth interview. To determine the validity and reliability of the interviews, two methods of retesting and double coder agreement were used.In the quantitative part, to test these research hypotheses, a researcher-made questionnaire including 147 items was used to collect information. The items of the questionnaire were compiled exactly based on the indicators identified in the qualitative phase of the research. In this research, the database theory method has been used to analyze qualitative data. Data analysis in the qualitative section has been done using MAXQDA software version 2020. Inferential statistics and Partial Least Squares (PLS) version 2024 were used to analyze the data and test the research hypotheses.

Based on the results of three stages of coding in the second part of the research, the obtained data are classified into 9 main categories. According to professors and experts, out of all the indicators obtained from the qualitative analysis of 14 interviews, including 9 categories and 30 indicators, have been used to formulate the model of decentralization (political-economic) in the direction of good governance.Figure 1- Research paradigm model.A survey approach was used to validate the obtained model. To check the validity of the questionnaires, two indices Content Validity Index (CVI) and Content Validity Ratio (CVR) have been measured. The results of the content validity index of the questions show that the CVI of all the questions is higher than 0.8, which is the result of the validity of the content of each question. Also, considering that the CVR value of each question is greater than 0.56, the content validity ratio of this questionnaire has been confirmed.The value of Cronbach's alpha reliability and composite reliability for all variables in the research model is more than 0.7. Therefore, the research questionnaire has the necessary reliability. Based on the obtained results, it was found that the conditions of convergent validity are also established. Therefore, convergent validity is also confirmed. The results of the Fornell-Larcker test also confirm the validity of the tool. The coefficient of determination test (R2) and the GOF index (equal to 0.698) also confirm the appropriate fit of the research model. In total, the results of the quantitative part showed that the proposed model in this research has good validity from the point of view of path coefficient and significant value.

Decentralization and formation of local government is a complex and long process that works to increase the participation of all people of a society in the development process based on local capacities, abilities, and resources. In decentralization, the central government hands over decision-making authority to local institutions whose officials are elected by the people of the same place; but their performance is under the control and supervision of the central government. In better words, decentralization refers to the relative authority of local governments in terms of setting goals, providing resources, and managing and implementing public policies. Decentralization facilitates and accelerates decision-making. It increases competition between local governments. It brings regional development and increases transparency and accountability by bringing the government closer to the people. Decentralization is also mentioned in articles of the law of the fifth five-year development plan of the country. In developing countries, there are several categories of main tasks, including "establishing the rule of law and ensuring the implementation of regulations", "creating macroeconomic stability", "and creating and upgrading infrastructure "," providing welfare services "," protecting the environment "and" strengthening the productive capacity of the national economy" can be summarized as the most important activities of the public sector. This research is one of the first studies that provide a comprehensive model related to decentralization in the direction of good governance. The components identified in the model of this research can have management guidelines for policymakers to facilitate the decentralization process and consequently strengthen good governance. Also, the proposed model provides researchers with a new perspective by separating different factors so that they can identify the important areas of decentralization from the perspective of good governance.

Workplace democracy and psychological capital jointly provide positive insights for organizations and can lead to improved psychological states to improve engagement, employee energy and sense of learning, and increase vitality in the workplace. The aim of the current research is an analysis of organizational democracy using the hybrid method. This research is developmental in terms of its purpose and was carried out with the qualitative approach and Sandelowski and Barroso's Meta-Synthesis Method (2007). The statistical sources of the research include the documentary sources of the countries that had an organizational democracy model. It should be mentioned that these articles were selected based on the criteria for entering the metasynthesis process. Qualitative content analysis method was also used to analyze the data. In this study, to identify the components of organizational democracy, 32 codes were identified as basic themes. Among these, 28 codes were selected as organizing themes, and finally 9 dimensions were extracted as overarching themes, which are: organizational commitment, shared governance, fair organizational climate, organizational dignity, transparency, effective relationships, culture of organizational freedom, Organizational competitiveness and occupational justice.

This study was conducted with the aim of designing a model of decentralization (political-economic) in Iran's provinces in line with optimal governance. The current research is considered to be a developmental research in terms of its purpose, exploratory in terms of its method, and a qualitative method in terms of its data collection method.

The statistical population consists of 14 executive and academic experts who have a history of education in the field of public administration and valid scientific articles in this field. The main tool of data collection in the field section includes semi-structured interviews. The reliability of the interviews was confirmed by the method of intra-subject agreement and retesting. To analyze the data, foundation data theory was used using MaxQD software.

Based on the results of the qualitative analysis of six categories of factors including causal factors (planning, competence, and flexibility), contextual factors (accountability, public empowerment, responsibility), intervening factors (environmental decentralization), central phenomenon (political-economic decentralization), Strategies (social development, economic management, and promotion of public participation), and consequences (decentralization based on governance, efficiency and effectiveness, formation of public consensus for justice) were identified. Based on the identified components, a paradigmatic model of political-economic decentralization was developed.

Based on the obtained results, public empowerment, responsibility and accountability were identified as the basic conditions for the realization of desirable governance. The growth and development of any society and country is dependent on the efficient and favorable performance of government organizations and institutions, and accordingly, the efficient and favorable performance of the people working in these institutions and organizations.

Citizens' health largely depends on the policies and operational plans of health care providers. In this regard, the present study aimed to design a model of public health services . In this research, a mixed (qualitative-quantitative) approach has been used to design the model. The statistical population in the qualitative part of the research includes 29 specialists and university professors. The statistical population in the quantitative part of the research includes all students of Shushtar University of Medical Sciences (N = 183), from which a sample of 125 people was selected. Interviews and questionnaires were used to collect data. In the first step of the research, the specialized research interviews are coded using qualitative content analysis. In the next step, the partial least squares method is used to validate the model. Qualitative analysis was performed with MAXQDA software and partial least squares method was performed with Smart PLS software. Based on the results, six general structures were identified in relation to the future of public health services, which include improving the quality of health services, humanism, policy-making, strategic thinking in the health sector, justice-oriented and infrastructure.
