A review of studies in the information seeking behavior of students and faculty members in ISC and Proquest databases through meta-analysis study.

This paper was meta-analyzed by the method introduced by Cooper (1994). To collect data, first all studies on information seeking behavior in Iran and the world up to 1399 in two scientific databases ISC and ProQuest were searched

In the studies carried out in this field (which included in the meta-analysis), a total of 16 variables and factors affecting information seeking behavior were identified in subgroups of students and faculty members. The overall results of the meta-analysis showed that the effect size or the coefficient of influence of the components and factors affecting the information seeking behavior is 0.593, which is rated as high according to Cohen's interpretive system. In addition, the extent of the effect of variables and factors affecting information seeking behavior is different in term of the two variables of sample group (students, faculty members, medical staff and citizens) and the field of study (internal and external research), and both variables are moderating variables affecting information-seeking behavior.

The information seeking behavior of individuals is influenced by factors, and the 16 factors identified in this study considerably affect how individuals seek information. Furthermore, in addition to the independent factors and variables of the variable, information seeking behavior is different depending on different groups of society and their local context and language.

Organisms, including humans, have an internal biological clock that helps them adjust to a regular circadian rhythm. The aim of this study was to investigate the existence of genetic changes in biological clocks in the search for information of different people and to draw a pattern for searching health information.

The present study was a fundamental applied type that performed by quasi-experimental method. The statistical population of the study consisted of 69 students who were selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected in two stages of completing the general health questionnaire, morning and evening sleep type and observing the behavior of completing search tasks and log analysis using images recorded from users in Camtasia studio software. Then, data analysis performed using log file analysis, chi-square and ANOVA tests.

The analysis of the subjectschr('39') search and retrieval behavior showed that these individuals have performed a total of 1574 strategies and techniques in the search process. The results showed that the highest frequency is related to the intermediate sleep group (65%). Also, 11.5% of users slept in the evening and 23% slept in the morning. People with nighttime sleep had better information search time in less time than others (P = 0.017).

None of the sleep types can affect the tests and cause cycles. Based on the genetic changes that occur, humans have different characteristics that create individual and functional differences, and therefore the range of individual differences is very wide.

Reflecting on the change in the world of the world through power domination, along with understanding (the relation of power-knowledge), while pointing out the sensitivity and influence (power category) to knowledge creation, storage, exchange and transfer; (knowledge strategy) and knowledge infrastructure to reach the “macro-knowledge management”; it can be a reason for the possibility change The world of knowledge and consequently (the change in the world of libraries and information centers) in history; therefore, it must "manage the vast array of subjective knowledge" from the beginning (production of knowledge) to the end (distribution) It was not far from the mind. The purpose of this study is to recognize the “macro-knowledge management” of power

This qualitative research approach and its methodology have been the underlying theory. Participants in the research included twenty faculty members in related topics of social sciences and information science and science. They were interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire. Data analysis was performed based on three coding methods used in grounded theory, including open source coding, axial coding and selective coding.

The results of this study showed that: The underlying theory emphasizes the likelihood of the existence of the exploitation of the world of knowledge of the world, which is shaped by its power and its impact on the processes of information management and knowledge management. Accordingly, the exploitation of the knowledge of the universe is indisputable in favor of the influence and power of the reality of reality, and this factor is a factor in the transformation of information and knowledge through the administration of knowledge.

A bi-directional management in different forms: Value management (Knowledge Management Affected by Science Classification); Cognitive Knowledge Management (Cognitive Knowledge Management); Exclusive Knowledge Management (Knowledge Management Influenced by Geopolitics of Information); Destructive Knowledge Management (Knowledge Management Affected by the Destruction of Information Resources); Infected Knowledge Management (Managing Knowledge Based on Information Pollution) can be applied.

The aim of this study is to identify the components affecting information seeking behavior and to measure their impact from Persian and English articles in this field. In addition, the moderating variables affecting information seeking behavior were identified and their effect size was calculated.

The method of this study is meta-analysis. The research population included all research papers indexed in the Islamic World Science Citation Database (ISC) for national research as well as all research papers indexed in ProQuest database for international research. According to the inclusion criteria, 89 studies were selected and among them, 19 studies had dependent variables of information seeking behavior and independent variables affecting information seeking behavior to calculate the effect size, which were included in the meta-analysis. These studies were conducted by applying survey method and by using questionnaire tools in different societies and according to reliable criteria. Data were analyzed using the CMA2 software.

In the studies carried out in this field (which included in the meta-analysis), a total of 16 variables and factors affecting information seeking behavior were identified in four main subgroups of students, faculty members, medical staff and citizens. These factors include: Internet use, access to information resources, familiarity with specialized resources, Internet skills, search skills, familiarity with new technologies, basic knowledge of the field of search, lack of time, ability to recognize the validity of information, motivation to seek information occupation, English language proficiency, Internet access, information literacy level, personal factors, Internet anxiety, and personal interest. The overall results of the meta-analysis showed that the effect size or the coefficient of influence of the components and factors affecting the information seeking behavior is 0.589, which is rated as high according to Cohenchr('39')s interpretive system. In addition, the extent of the effect of variables and factors affecting information seeking behavior is different in term of the two variables of sample group (students, faculty members, medical staff and citizens) and the field of study (internal and external research), and both variables are moderating variables affecting information-seeking behavior.

Due to the fact that many studies have been conducted on variables and factors affecting information seeking behavior, there was no research dealing with their results in the form of meta-analysis. Therefore, this research has tried to fill this gap. The information seeking behavior of individuals is influenced by factors, and the 16 factors identified in this study considerably affect how individuals seek information. Furthermore, in addition to the independent factors and variables of the variable, information seeking behavior is different depending on different groups of society and their local context and language.

to evaluate science and technology in the agriculture domain, determination of specific indicators are necessary. The present study has been designed to provide a model (Science and Technology Assessment System) for evaluating science and technology of agriculture.

The stages of research based on the design science method. This method contains three basic steps in a mixed research frame.  By using documentary study method, 404 related or general indicators were identified in the field of agriculture. In the Delphi technique, 271 indicators from 404 indicators were selected by agricultural experts. Finally, based on the frameworks of science and technology evaluation at the national and international levels, a framework for evaluating the science and technology system in Agricultural Research, Education and Extension Organization has been proposed.

In this research, 8 general categories of research and technology, production of technological products, genetic resources and biodiversity management, training, extension, human capital, financial and infrastructure have been proposed for the overall framework of the evaluation system of the science and technology indicators of the Agricultural Research, Education and Extension Organization.

Conclustion:

 26 science and technology indicators in in the field of agriculture were approved by field experts. These indicators, with the priority between 1 and 2 and Kendall coordination coefficient more than 0.7, were in five main components of race, exploration, mapping, extensible findings and technology for the evaluation system model Agriculture. This template has the ability to implement and evaluate indicators in different time periods.

Numerous scientific studies related to the status of scientific productions of various subjects have been performed using the Scientometric method. This study aimed to analyze the previously conducted research procedures on the effect of biorhythm and sleep cycle in information retrieval. Moreover, it was attempted to draw a scientific map in this regard.

The present study was conducted based on an applieddescriptive design using scientometric techniques. The documents were extracted from the Scopus and PubMed databases, and after analysis, the scientific map of the subject areas of these documents was drawn using Excel and UciNet software as well as its combined net draw package. This procedure was conducted using the topic matching matrix in the subject category field of the studies.

The results showed that 28 documents were published in Scopus and PubMed databases. The majority of the studies were in the field of mathematics (n=8), biological sciences (n=6), medicine (n=5), engineering (n=5), physics and astrology (n=4), genetics, chemistry, computer science, and environment. Udesen J with an H-index of 11 and a study published in 2006 topped the list of the authors with 80 citations. Moreover, the keywords of mathematics, life sciences, and medicine are introduced as high-frequency clusters. The core journal of these topics is Physical Review E Statistical Nonlinear and Soft Matter Physics with 7 studies as the most prolific journal.

In general, according to the results of this study, it can be said that very little scientific activity and production have been conducted on these issues so far. Due to the importance of these issues in activity planning, there is a need for scientific productions in these fields.

The main purpose of this study is to determine the difference between the IF and the indicators of SJR, SNIP, and IPP in introducing scientific journals in scientific fields.

This research is an applied research and in terms of implementation method, it is a scientometrics study (comparative type). The population is the top scientific journals, which are in the first quarter of the list of JCR magazines, and includes 1093 titles in medical, technical, engineering, and social science fields. The required data were collected through the online search at JCR, Scopus and SCImago. The statistical tests of Kolmogorov Smirnov were used for data normalization and exploratory factor analysis to test the hypotheses.

Findings showed that the mean difference between two indicators of "IF" and "SJR" was significant in the fields of engineering and social sciences, and the mean difference between these two indices was not significant in the field of medicine. In each of the three fields, the mean difference between the two "IF" and "SNIP" indicators is significant. In the medical and social sciences, the mean difference between the two "IF" and "IPP" indicators was significant and not significant in the field of engineering. In the social sciences, the indicators of the "SJR", "SNIP" and "IPP" are highly correlated and the "IF" has no high correlation with other indicators. In the field of engineering and medical sciences, the "IF", "SNIP" and "IPP" indicators are highly correlated and the "SJR" index has no high correlation with other indicators.

The result showed that the use of different indicators in different subjects has given different results, and a more accurate index should be selected in each field according to the degree of closeness and the difference between these differences. The indicators of SJR, SNIP, and IPP in the social sciences, and the indicators of IF, SNIP and IPP, respectively, in the field of engineering and medical sciences, are the most relevant indicators for citation and decision making, because of the most similarity in the ranking of journals in these fields. The use of the IF in the field of social sciences and the SJR in the fields of engineering and medical sciences due to lack of correlation with other indicators do not seem appropriate and in general, the use of the two indicators of IPP and SNIP in all thematic areas are better and more reliable indicators

The present study aims to explain and elucidate the evaluating indicators ofscience, technology in Iranian Agricultural Research, Education and Extension Organization based on the analysis of high level documents and Persian and non-Persian articles relevent to activities of the organization that have been approved by the experts.

For this research, in the first stage, the Meta-synthesis was used. Out of 108 documents related to the research topic, 26 were analyzed. To analyse the indices obtained during the process, a survey of experts using the Delphi technique was used. Thus, the present research method is triangulation mixed method.

In total, 8 main criteria including research and technology, products from technological research, genetic resources and biodiversity management, education, extension, human capital, financial and infrastructure resources along with 242 indicators for the evaluation of science and technology, were confirmed by the experts.

In addition to the conventional indicators in high level documens, the science and technology indicators of the Organization derived from the Delphi study based on special two-tier of "products from technological research" and "genetic reserve and biodiversity management" demonstrated the highest level of consensus among experts and can serve as the indicators for assessing agricultural science and technology.
