Evaluation of science and technology policies: with a policy approach to support women researchers in research and technology

The main purpose of this article is to evaluate the policy of supporting women researchers in the field of research and technology. The evaluation of this policy has been done using the existing models in the literature and the design of the researcher-made model. The research is descriptive-applied in nature and has been done by survey technique. First, the policy experts, as experts, reviewed the questionnaire, and with a confidence level of 0.7 for Cronbach's alpha, the reliability of the questionnaire was determined. The statistical population consisted of policy experts and women researchers, 79 of whom answered the questions as a sample. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to describe the data, non-parametric non-parametric tests and Friedman ranking were used to examine the questions and SPSS statistical analysis software was used at the significant level of 0.05 for analysis. A sample was used. Findings from the results of statistical analysis and policy evaluation survey showed that the policy under evaluation from the perspective of both statistical communities, needs to be reformed and reviewed. Also, the findings of the results of the independent t-test indicate that the policy is designed without the participation of stakeholders and without considering the underlying conditions and anticipating the necessary mechanisms. The most important suggestion of the article is to provide targeted material and spiritual support to women researchers in the field of science and technology production. Also, the necessary coherence and integration should be created between policy makers and policy makers.
