Leadership plays a vital role in the dynamics of the organization. The degree of success of the organization in reaching the predetermined goals, the amount of effort of the employees for the success of the organization and the effectiveness of the leader on the employees depends on the behaviors and leadership style. The development of organizational innovation and learning in order to obtain a sustainable competitive advantage and improve organizational performance requires the existence of suitable conditions and management styles, which are one of the effective factors in this field.

considering the importance of organizational performance based on leadership styles, this research aims to design a model for predicting organizational performance based on leadership styles and the mediating role of innovative culture and organizational learning.

The research method is inductive and qualitative. The statistical population consisted of experts and academic specialists who were selected as the sample size using the principle of saturation and the snowball sampling method. In order to collect data, semi-structured interviews were used. Data analysis was done using the qualitative data analysis method of Maxqda software.

Based on the findings of the research, the dimensions and components of leadership styles were identified in 8 categories, the dimensions and components of organizational innovative culture in 5 categories, and the dimensions and components of organizational learning in 7 categories. Based on the findings of this research, organizational performance can be developed and improved by using appropriate leadership style and implementing innovative culture and strengthening organizational learning.

According to the results of the research, it is suggested to use projects with high potential and based on meritocracy management and knowledge and expertise in sensitive and highly important categories in line with the development of suspended and forward-looking projects so that the performance of the organization through development Projects and the community's sense of need for these projects should be used to achieve the organization's goals.

This research was aimed at Designing and validating an Education Model based on the Competencies of Red Crescent Rescuer. The statistical population in the qualitative section consisted of Academic and organizational experts, including experts in education. The sample size is estimated in the qualitative section with the saturated saturation (20 people) and in the quantitative section 335 Members of Rescuers and rescuers of the Red Crescent in Tehran according to the Cochran formularesearch

A sample of qualitative sample was used for purposeful sampling and in a small part of the compilation sampling (Straight random sampling). The data collection tool was interviewed in the qualitative section and in the quantitative section the questionnaire was based on the 5-point scale. Validity of the questionnaire from a formal and content perspective through several experts, convergence validity was calculated by calculating the mean of variance extracted and cross-check validity was verified by calculating AVE optimization. Reliability questionnaire through Cronbach's alpha for the whole questionnaire was 0.86 Data were analyzed using Cronbach's, AVE, AVE, K-S, confirmatory statistical analysis, Pearson correlation,  scorecard rating and used techniques.

The results led to the identification of 25 components and 81 indicators, of which 8 main dimensions are educational environment (0.735), learners (0.623), implementation of educational program (0.615), competency assessment (0.563), design and educational planning (0.504) , Preparation of competency selection approach (0.420), educational evaluation (0.397) and review and updating of the training process and program (0.341) are the priority dimensions of competency-based education, respectively

It seems that to the proposed model had a good degree of fit. The advantage of using competency to design a curriculum is, on the one hand, a more accurate identification of educational needs and increase the efficiency of training, and on the other hand, the practicality of training and avoidance of knowledge transfer.

In today's electronic age, taking e-learning courses allows people to use newer methods to improve their organizational performance compared to previous generations.

The research data were collected from the qualitative analysis of the studied documents: based on the analysis of the data, the dimensions and components of the teacher's curriculum assessment and evaluation literacy model were classified into 5 dimensions and 18 axes. These dimensions include the knowledge of the curriculum elements (including the axes of knowledge regarding the content, goals, approaches of education, the knowledge of the learners, the space and place of the program, the time and the knowledge of educational evaluation), meta-knowledge (including the axes of perceptual knowledge and knowledge management), knowledge of the program Curriculum planning (including the axes of knowledge of program design and compilation, knowledge of curriculum dissemination, knowledge of implementing curricula and knowledge of curriculum evaluation), background knowledge (including axes of cultural-social knowledge, professional skills) E-organizational and factors and indicators affecting teacher evaluation) and humanistic knowledge (including the axes of interactive knowledge and emotional knowledge).

Medical tourism as an active industry contributes to the sustainable development and economic growth of countries. This study aims to investigate the status of an ophthalmology hospital in Zahedan, Iran in attracting medical tourists.

This descriptive-analytical study was conducted in 2019 in Al-Zahra Ophthalmology Hospital in Zahedan. The study population consists of the administrative and clinical staff of this hospital. Using a census method, 75 people were selected. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire with acceptable validity and reliability (Cronbach’s alpha=0.83) was used to survey the attitudes of participants. Mean, standard deviation, and independent t-test were used to analyze the collected data in SPSS software, version 22. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.

The mean score for the possibility of attracting tourists by the hospital was 3.5±0.6. Among the study domains, general condition (3.7±0.7) and quality of equipment and infrastructure (3.7±0.6) obtained the highest score, while the geographical condition (2.8±0.9) had the lowest score.

The potential of the ophthalmology hospital in Zahedan in attracting medical tourist is at moderate level. Introduction of historical and scenic places as well as tourist attractions of the province on the website of the hospital, coordination with tourism companies to organize recreational tours according to the climate of the province, creating a food menu and improving the quality level of patients’ foods in accordance with their cultures, as well as improving the hospital’s website, both in terms of content and technical issues, and making it trilingual (Persian, English and Arabic) can be effective in improving the status of the hospital in attracting more medical tourists.

Self-directed learning is one of the issues that play an important role in studentschr('39') academic performance. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of brain quadrants dominance on academic performance with the mediating role of self-directed learning of the students of Zahedan University of Medical Sciences.

This is a descriptive-correlational study with Structural Equation Modeling approach. The statistical population consisted of 5120 students of Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. Based on Karajsi and Morgan table, 357 individuals were selected by simple random sampling method. Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument Questionnaire (1980), Fam and Taylorchr('39')s Studentschr('39') academic performance Questionnaire (2004) and Williams Self-directed learning Questionnaire (2004) were used for data collection. To measure validity of the questionnaire, content validity index& Ratio (CVI, CVR) was used. Based on Cronbachchr('39')s alpha coefficient, the reliability of the questionnaires was estimated to be 0.91, 0.73 and 0.94, respectively. Data analysis was performed by Pearson correlation test and Structural Equation Modeling via SPSS and LISREL.

Results  show that  the four-quadrant brain dominance had a direct effect on academic performance (B=0.73, t=9.25). The dominance had a direct effect on self-directed learning (SDL) (B=0.66, t=8.31), and both direct (B=0.439, t=8.94) and indirect (B=0.39) effects on the academic performance with a mediating role of self-directed learning. Since it affected the academic performance through self-directed learning, therefore the mediating role of the variable in the four-quadrant brain dominance on academic performance was confirmed . The findings also indicated that the proposed model had a good fit (GFI=0.95, RAMSEA=0.07).

Based on findings, the four-quadrant brain dominance had direct and indirect effects on the studentschr('39') academic performance. Furthermore, the mediating role of self-directed learning on the studentschr('39') academic performance was confirmed. Since the studentschr('39') academic performance changed under the influence of education So, It is Suggested conduct programs to familiarize students with the brain quadrants, functions of brain quadrants, and the context of self-directed learning at the university.

High quality data are prerequisite of high-quality health care. Present study aimed to evaluate hospital information system data quality in educational hospitals of Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. The applied cross-sectional study was conducted in 2018. Research population comprises HIS’ users of five public hospitals affiliated to Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. The convenient sampling technique was used for   the selection of 300 samples.
