In light of the profound transformations occurring within health systems and the forthcoming challenges that lie ahead, it is highly imperative to address the matter of governance. Consequently, the objective of the present study is to detect the governance elements that comprise the health system in universities of medical sciences in Iran.

This qualitative research was developed using the content analysis method. The statistical population consisted of experts, professionals, managers, and specialists affiliated with Iran's Ministry of Health and medical sciences universities. The data collection process involved conducting semi-structured interviews with 24 experts, including managers and professionals in this field who were selected using the targeted sampling method and maximal diversity. To analyze the interview data, the inductive content analysis technique was applied.

Eight main components were identified, including independence and self-reliance, administrative system health, organizational agility, meritocracy, human capital development, social capital development, health orientation, and infrastructure development.

The challenges in the way of achieving the goals of the health system in the current governance model of the health system in Iran can be studied based on 8 components, and in the future interventions, they can be considered to create and strengthen a flexible structure in line with dynamism and effective innovation and reducing dependence on governmental resources.

The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a biofeedback intervention program using heart rate variability (HRV) on working memory performance in children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Methods and Materials:

In this quasi-experimental study, a total of 30 children aged 8 to 12 years were selected through convenience sampling from clinics and counseling centers in District 3 of Tehran during 2021-2022 and were included in the study. Participants were randomly assigned to either the experimental group (15 participants) or the control group (15 participants). The experimental group participated in 15 sessions of a biofeedback intervention program using HRV, while the control group was placed on a waiting list without receiving any intervention. The working memory performance of both groups was assessed at the pre-test and post-test stages using the n-back working memory test, introduced by Kirchner in 1958. The data were analyzed using univariate analysis of covariance.

The results indicated the effectiveness of the biofeedback intervention program using HRV on the working memory performance of children with ADHD.

Overall, this study provides preliminary evidence for the use of HRV biofeedback as a potential intervention to improve working memory performance in children with ADHD, although further research is needed to confirm these findings.

In the statement of the second step of the revolution, the supreme leader of the revolution emphasized on three key points: self-improvement, socialization and civilization. These three elements can be seen in the school of Haj Qasim Soleimani, which is the school of Ahl al-Bayt. The aim of the current research is to explain these components in the statement of the second step of the Islamic revolution and the school of management of martyr Haj Qassem Soleimani, so that its influence in individual, social and international dimensions is revealed. The upcoming article is based on a meta-composite method and by searching in Iranian and foreign databases and the database of Shahid Haj Qasim Soleimani; About the components of the second step of the Islamic revolution, it has been done in the management school of Shahid Soleimani. The findings of the research indicate that the realization of the distinctive and sublime goals of the Islamic Revolution in the direction of the growth and perfection of the members of the society and the expansion of justice depends on the use of a suitable management model. Such a model arises from unique foundations that can be found in the school of Shahid Soleimani and elements such as self-reflection, future, duty and enemy in the face of self-improvement; Also, elements such as the sociological approach and socialization in the face of socialization, as well as positive and negative aspects in the face of civilization were achieved

Specific learning disorders are neurodevelopmental disorders with biological origin. This origin includes the interaction of genetic, paragenetic, and environmental factors. At the same time, the symptoms of this disorder occur at the cognitive level. Specific learning disorders include problems in academic abilities such as fluency in reading, reading comprehension, writing, and mathematical reasoning. The most common learning disorder seems to be dyslexia. Learning disabilities are one of the main problems in children's academic performance and progress in the educational system of the United States and probably other countries around the world. One increasingly prominent and well–documented treatment for this developmental impairment has recently been the executive functions training approach. This study is intended to be a systematic review of the effectiveness of executive functions training on reading and writing skills of students with learning difficulties as a scientific ground for selecting more efficacious treatments.

To this end, this research was done as a systematic literature review, scoping various techniques and different treatment approaches that have been applied so far to enhance the academic performances of students with reading and writing difficulties. Three online databases were searched: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Only research studies published in English were accounted for. No limitations were exerted but on the subject's country or language. The time duration for all search was from 2010 to 2022. All papers were to be first–order research; this study did not include other literature reviews and meta–analytic research in its study sample. It also excluded interventions for other learning problems, such as dyscalculia. Furthermore, interventions for adult problems were excluded.
A total of 1172 potentially relevant papers were found at the primary searching activities. However, after different levels of elimination, only 14 papers were decided to meet the criteria fully.

There were few relevant treatments, but they were divergent regarding the techniques used and the cognitive functions trained. Among them, however, those who were found to be more decisively influential were Computerized Executive Functions Training (CEFT), Computerized Working Memory Training (CWMT), Action Video Games Training (AVG), and Visual Spatial Attention training. Careful examination of these treatments shows that most computerized training tasks could have been executed in non–computerized versions. Indeed, computerization for most tasks is only a methodological strategy to implement training in exact timing. Meanwhile, some negative evidence was also found, suggesting that some of the executive functions training that has been frequently claimed to be effective were completely useless on children with learning disabilities. Although this evidence is relatively negligible, subsequent work is needed to determine the effectiveness of each treatment. On the other hand, some of the most effective intervention programs were organized in such a way as to take, explicitly or implicitly, a central or supervisory system of executive functions for granted.

Despite the lack of certainty regarding the effectiveness of each of the interventions individually in improving learning problems, it seems that to improve children's reading and writing skills, using programs based on executive functions as a combination of several designed components is a more practical approach.

The present research was conducted with the aim of identifying the competencies (knowledge, skills, abilities, attitudes, and characteristics) required of leaders in a turbulent environment.
This study employed a qualitative approach and a meta-synthesis method. The method provided by Sandelowski and Barroso (2007) was utilized for this purpose. The research community consisted of 483 scientific documents published between 2016 and 2023, which were sourced from 8 international and 4 domestic databases. The databases searched included ProQuest, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, PubMed, Sage, Emerald, ResearchGate, Springer, SID, IranDoc, Normex, and MagIran. After analyzing the titles and content, 27 scientific documents were selected and thoroughly analyzed. The findings were then analyzed using the thematic analysis method.
A review of the existing literature on the competencies of leaders in turbulent environments reveals that, despite the substantial research conducted in this field, only certain aspects of these competencies have been addressed. The dimensions and categories of leadership in turbulent conditions have not been comprehensively examined together, nor has a comprehensive model been developed. Moreover, the obstacles to developing these competencies have not been adequately presented. Based on the findings of the present study, the competencies of leaders in a turbulent environment were organized into five dimensions: abilities, individual ethics, organizational and psychological ethics, attitudes, knowledge, and skills. The knowledge dimension includes 13 concepts under two components: organizational knowledge and peripheral knowledge. The abilities dimension consists of self-development, mental and analytical components, guidance, coherence, understanding of complexities, and cognitive (thinking) components, comprising a total of 40 items or concepts. The skills dimension encompasses team building, communication, empowerment, and decision-making (in unstable conditions), totaling 33 concepts. In the attitude dimension, 26 concepts were organized under the components of passion for improvement and strategic vision. The integrated components derived from these concepts include organizational and peripheral knowledge; self-development, mental and analytical abilities, guidance, coherence, understanding of complexities, and cognitive (thinking) abilities; team building skills, communication, empowerment, decision-making (in unstable conditions), and technological skills; individual ethics, organizational (professional) ethics, and psychological ethics; and an attitude of passion for improvement and strategic vision. Overall, from the 27 reviewed studies, one main theme, 5 primary themes (areas of competence), and 18 sub-components related to competence were identified.
To ensure the quality of the research, the analysis and interpretation of the documents were conducted with high accuracy and thorough documentation. Additionally, the opinions and feedback of experts were incorporated at various stages of the research. By providing an integrated model of leaders' competencies in a turbulent environment, this research enables leaders in today's volatile world to identify and develop the necessary competencies to achieve stable and effective organizational performance. Furthermore, they can assess these competencies in their peers and lay the foundation for their development.

Due to the one-dimensionality of the existing protocols about the executive function devising task-oriented and diverse interventions grounded in executive functions and evaluating their effectiveness on the reading skills of students with attention-deficit reading disabilities is of paramount importance.

This study aims to design and assess the effectiveness of a program aimed at improving reading skills, specifically focusing on executive functions, for students afflicted with attention-deficit reading disabilities.

This research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative elements. In the qualitative phase, a therapeutic intervention designed to enhance reading proficiency was developed based on a systematic review of relevant studies, with input from a panel of nine experts to ensure its validity. The subsequent quantitative phase involves a quasi-experimental design, including pre-test, post-test, and follow-up measurements with a control group. The study population consists of second and third-grade students with reading disabilities in Tehran who sought assistance from learning disability centers. Using voluntary sampling, 55 students were initially selected, and ultimately, 24 students (12 in each group) were randomly assigned based on stringent entry and exit criteria. The research instruments utilized include the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, Fifth Edition, the SNSP-IV grading scale, and the reading assessment. Data analysis was conducted using repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) in SPSS 25 software.

The mean scores on the reading assessment within the experimental group exhibited a statistically significant difference between the pre-test and post-test phases (p< 0.01). However, no significant difference was observed between the post-test and follow-up phases (p> 0.05).

Based on the findings, it is evident that the developed program can effectively enhance the reading proficiency of students grappling with attention-deficit reading disabilities.

The present study was conducted to identify the training needs of new teachers. The research method was applied in an objective and systematic review of the data collected. To achieve the purpose a regular review of the research was conducted based on the model of Sandelowski & Barroso (2006), after reviewing the 650 documents in the first stage, 22 were selected . The Critical Appraisal Skills Program(Glynn,2006) has been used to determine the validity, and the reliability was assessed by Cohen's kappa coefficient ) 73%(. Analysis of the documentation findings led to identifying 24 main concepts. The identified concepts were categorized into 4 components include; knowledge needs (mastery of course content, ICT literacy, knowledge pertaining to pedagogy, learning approaches and performing arts), skills needs (application of ICT, analysis of course content, social communication ,time management, and research-based evaluation), ability needs (ability to express ideas clearly, motivate students, problem solving and critical thinking, establishing justice in dealing with students, and self-management needs) and attitude needs (positive attitude to the use of ICT , valuing the teaching profession, interest in acquiring knowledge and updating, commitment to the teaching profession, positive attitude to cultural and religious differences, humor and believe in lifelong learning).

The strategic implications of any system are reflected in the mirror of its upstream documents. These upstream documents signify the principles, values, goals, and ideals of each system. Given that good governance is a prominent approach in managing educational organizations, the present study aims to identify the strategic implications of good governance in the upstream documents of education. In this research, the fundamental transformation document of education has been studied as a case. The research method is applied, which was done qualitative, specifically a systematic approach to implication-research. In the section on indicators of good governance, 23 indicators were derived from the integration of indicators from seven different sources. Subsequently, the implications present in the fundamental transformation document of education were examined for the derived indicators. The extracted set of implications revealed that the document emphasizes significant implications of good governance, indicating its importance to the document’s authors. However, some indicators, such as ethics, received greater emphasis, while others, like consensus-oriented governance, received less attention. Most of the extracted implications are formulated as general and non-transparent statements. Considering the implications related to decentralization and quality regulation, it can be argued that the educational system remains a key player, and the necessary independence has not been granted to the other two key actors of good governance (civil society and the private sector) in the serious agenda of document authors

The present study is conducted with the aim of mediating the role of professional development in the relationship between professional ethics and job self-efficacy on the job satisfaction of faculty members of Tehran University.

The research method is descriptive-correlation type of structural equation modeling. The research community included all faculty members of Tehran University, and 245 people were randomly studied using stratified sampling with proportional allocation. To collect data from Porkarimi's professional development questionnaire (2018); Professional ethics of faculty members, Pourkarimi et al. (2018); Qomoshi and Pourkrimi's job satisfaction (2022) and Bandura's job self-efficacy (1977) were used. The reliability of the tool using Cronbach's alpha coefficient, respectively, for the professional development questionnaire, α = 0.94; professional ethics α=0.95; Job satisfaction α=0.80 and job self-efficacy α=0.86 were obtained. The validity of the instrument was confirmed using construct validity (confirmatory factor analysis).

The results of modeling the structural equations of the research showed that the research model has a suitable fit.

Structural equation modeling shows that the effect of professional ethics on job satisfaction (γ=0.19) is not significant. Professional ethics on professional development (γ=0.24); Job self-efficacy had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction (γ=0.57) and job self-efficacy had a positive and significant effect on professional development (γ=0.65), and professional development had a negative effect on job satisfaction (β=0.34). The indirect and negative effect of professional ethics on job satisfaction with the mediation of professional development (-0.08) was not significant; Also, the indirect and negative effect of job self-efficacy on job satisfaction with the mediation of professional development (-0.22) was significant.

The research method was descriptive-correlation type regression. The population of the study consisted of all faculty members of the University of Tehran. 267 of them were selected randomly using stratified sampling. To collect the data, a Professional Developmental Questionnaire (PP89) with reliability of α = 0.94  and job satisfaction with a reliability of α = 0.80 were used. For instrument validity, content validity as well as construct validity were used.

The results showed that the professional development of the faculty members in all component components has a higher status than the average level,  and also job satisfaction of faculty members is higher than the average level. The correlation obtained also indicates a positive relationship (r = 0.17) and a significant (0.01sig:) relationship between professional development and job satisfaction. Also, the results of multiple regression showed that among the components of professional development, educational development (β = 0.36) and component of ICT development (β = -0.16), predictive ability (with positive effect) on job satisfaction.

According to the research findings; It can be concluded that by implementing programs for the professional development of faculty members; It helped to increase their job satisfaction.

The main goal of this research is to design and validate the model of lean scholarly skills in universities and higher education institutions.

This research was carried out in two qualitative and quantitative stages, using the mixed exploratory research method. In the qualitative stage of the research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 experts and pundits in the field of higher education who were selected in a purposeful way in order to identify the appropriate model for the context of Iranian universities. Qualitative data analysis was performed using open and axial coding (theme analysis) and its reliability and validity were evaluated. In the quantitative stage, the descriptive-analytical research method and the statistical population included all the managers of the departments of the University of Tehran with 252 people who using Cochran's sampling formula, 152 people were selected as the sample. Sampling method in this study was stratified random sampling method. In the quantitative part, the required data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire. To evaluate the validity of the quantitative research instrument, content validity and construct validity were used and to evaluate the reliability of the instrument, Cronbach's alpha was used, which confirmed the appropriate reliability and validity of the research instrument.

The results of the research showed that the lean scholarly skills of the managers of the departments of the University of Tehran have six components: knowledge management skills, scientific diplomacy skills, pedagogy skills, networking skills, communication skills, and creativity and innovation skills. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis showed that the identified six components have sufficient factor load to validate the pure scholarly skills of department heads of the University of Tehran.

Areas of Innovation have been established in more than 50 places in the world during the evolution of innovation ecosystems and after common models such as science and technology parks, and they have left a significant impact on the regional economy. In Iran, districts with the characteristics of the area of innovation are emerging, the most well-known of which is the Sharif area of Innovation around the Sharif University of Technology. However, the formation of these areas in the country is considered a new experience and despite the importance of the issue, not much research has been done in the field of policy making and development of these areas. The present study, using the systematic grounded theory, deals with the design of the desirable model of science and technology policy in the Sharif area of innovation. In this method, in-depth interviews were conducted with 18 experts while reviewing documents and field studies. Then, the focus group method was used to ensure the validity of the findings. Finally, the ideal policy model of science and technology in this area of innovation including drivers and challenges of the internal and external environment, development strategies of the area, consequences, and feedback has been designed. Also, policy proposals based on this model have been presented, which include designing a strategic plan for the development of Sharif's area of innovation, upgrading the position and executive and operational capacity of Sharif Science and Technology Park, using information systems to accelerate integration, specialization of Sharif Innovation Zone, and efforts to Creating an innovative community.

The present study aimed to investigate the role of digital competence in the classroom leadership of new teachers. The study was applied in terms of purpose and used a descriptive-analytical methodology. Moreover, the data were collected according to the quantitative approach. The population included all graduates of Farhangian University in Fars Province who started teaching during the academic years from 2016 to 2021. Using Cochran's formula and the available sampling method, 238 people were selected as a statistical sample from 4500 new teachers. The data were collected using the EU Standardized Digital Competence Questionnaire (as cited in Gümüş & Kukul, 2023) and the Classroom Leadership Scale (Karabağ Köse, 2019). Using Cronbach's Alpha coefficient, the instruments' reliability was determined at 0.96 and 0.95 for the EU Standardized Digital Competence Questionnaire and the Classroom Leadership Scale, respectively. Data were analyzed using the t-test to determine the status of the research variables, Pearson's correlation coefficient for investigating simple relationships between the variables, stepwise regression analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis for determining the construct validity. The study results showed that the new teachers' digital competence was (in general) above average, and only one component (i.e., creating digital content) was evaluated at an average level. Furthermore, a significant relationship was observed between the components of digital competency and classroom leadership. Ultimately, the results of the stepwise regression indicated that new teachers' digital competence could explain around 30% of their classroom leadership

The aim of this study was to investigate the factors related to the effectiveness of technical and vocational training. The research method was descriptive survey and the statistical population consisted of 124 full-time permanent and semi-permanent as well as contractual teaching instructors. The research tool used was researcher-made questionnaires measuring the status of these factors in the target community in three general areas of individual, educational and organizational factors. The use of partial least squares method to confirm the validity of the model showed that all observable and local variables had a factor load higher than 0.6 on their corresponding internal variable and were confirmed at the level of 0.01. The results showed that the mean score of individual factors was higher than the average hypothetical mean of research and desirable (Sig = 0.000, M = 3.43), the mean score of educational factors was higher than the hypothetical mean of research and desirable (Sig = 0.000, M = 3.35), and the mean score of organizational factors was lower than mean and undesirable (Sig = 0.01, M = 2.81).

The present study aimed to provide a model of empowerment for the family-heading women in Imam Khomeini Relief Committee. The study adopted a mixed-methods approach. The research population in the qualitative section included all female-headed households, Relief Committees across the country, and managers and specialists, from among whom 115 family-heading women, 27 managers, and 10 specialists were selected and interviewed through purposive sampling. In the quantitative section, 1500 women and 193 managers were selected using Cochran's sampling formula. To collect data, interviews and questionnaires were used. The results of the qualitative section showed that the empowerment model for family-heading females included problems (individual, familial, social, and economic), solutions (individual, familial, social, and economic empowerment), and strategies (direct and indirect organizational, and extra-organizational (including inter-organizational, legal, and social)). The fit of the model in the quantitative phase was assessed using LISREL software. Structural equation modeling also confirmed these dimensions and showed that the model had a relatively good fit with the data. Thus, it can be concluded that the model for the empowerment of women both takes into account the problems of this group and provides appropriate solutions and strategies to empower them in practice.

The purpose of this study was to provide, recognize, and metasynthesize the components of university organizational culture. To this end, a metasynthesis of the Iranian and international articles published from 2010 to 2020 was carried out. The findings of the study were categorized into three parts, namely assumptions, values, and artifacts. The prioritization of the 88 components derived from 74 articles revealed that in the assumptions construct, the value principles of the organization and physical-spiritual wellbeing in the epistemology component and organizational identity and organizational experiences in the identity-seeking component are of importance. In the value construct, components such as academicians’ competences, participation and teamwork, scientific independence and freedom, organizational learning, and learning methods (as norms) and negative clichés (as anomalies) were identified. Finally, within the artifacts construct, components such as communication platform, interaction among individuals (structure), academic management and the role of leadership (human resources), resource allocation and bargaining over resources, and organizational change and evolution atmosphere (process) were recognized. Finally, the artifacts construct was deemed as the principal priority of the meritocratic academic community, the main part of which is the structure component.
