An open researcher-made interview and questionnaire were used to collect field information. Structural-interpretive modeling (ISM) method has been used to design the initial model of pathology of the educational guidance system. The partial least squares method was used to validate the model. In the qualitative part, content analysis of Maxqda software and structural-interpretive analysis with MicMac and at least partial squares with Smart PLS have been performed.
