 The elderly population in Iran is growing. Aging is a natural phenomenon that causes changes in brain structures, including the frontal lobe and its connections, which are responsible for the brain’s executive functions. These structural changes lead to problems in cognitive and physical functioning. Older people face problems such as decreased performance in daily activities of life and participation in social activities. In cognitive orientation to the daily occupational performance approach, the participants learn to improve their motor performance using cognitive strategies. The effectiveness of this approach has been reported in stroke, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and some childhood disorders. This study aimed to investigate this approach’s feasibility and its effect on the Iranian elderly without cognitive problems.

A single-subject study A-B design with follow-up was conducted. The participants were two older adults referred to Ramsar Health Center, Ramsar City, Iran. Before the intervention, to examine the participants’ cognitive status, we used Digit Span Forward to measure attention and Digit Span Backwards and Digit Symbol to measure working memory. The participants’ executive function was also assessed by the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test and Independence in Activity of Daily Living (ADL) with Functional Independent Measure (FIM). Each participant selected three functional goals by Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) for the focus of the Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP) intervention. After two weeks of evaluating participants’ performance on selected goals using the Performance Quality Rating Scale (PQRS) to determine baseline performance, the intervention period began. During this period, a total of 8 to 10 sessions were held for each participant. In these sessions, the participants were first taught global problem-solving strategies (Goal, Plan, Do, Check), and then they were introduced to domain-specific strategies and their importance in executing activities. Afterward, through guided discovery during implementation, they were directed to use these strategies in their execution by guided discovery. During this period, the participant’s performance on the selected goals was assessed five times by the PQRS. At the end of the intervention, to evaluate the long-term impact of the intervention, the participant’s performance on the selected goals was re-evaluated by the PQRS three times.

 The PQRS results showed that the performance of the first participant in each of the three selected activities improved. The results of the PQRS for the second participant showed a significant improvement in performance on the two selected goals. However, one of the selected goals did not show a significant change, which may be related to this goal’s nature. Participants’ net scores in FIM and COPM showed improved performance and satisfaction on selective goals, and performance independence remained constant.

 The CO-OP approach is feasible in the Iranian elderly population, and the preliminary results indicate the positive impact of this approach on improving the performance in the trained goals. However, given the study limitations in interpreting the results, it is recommended that future studies with a larger sample size be conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and efficacy of this approach. It is also recommended to use alternative tools instead of PQRS to evaluate the results, given the different cultural contexts.

Considering that competitive advantage is the basis of strategic management, the purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between electronic human resource management, competitive advantage, and human resource flexibility.

The present applied and descriptive research was done in the 2020. The statistical population of this research was the employees of the Isfahan government hospitals. Using Cochran formula, 341 people were taken as the final sample. The data collection tool in this study was a standard questionnaire whose validity and reliability had been confirmed in previous studies. The data were then analyzed by SPSS and LISREL software.

The results of the tests showed that electronic human resource management with 0/76 impact factor had a positive and significant effect on the competitive advantage, and the one with 0/66 impact factor had a positive and significant effect on flexibility of human resources. Also, human resource flexibility with 0/35 impact factor had a positive and significant impact on competitive advantage.

Considering the mediating role of the human resources flexibility in the relationship between electronic human resources with competitive advantage, we need to invest in the electronic system related sectors to improve strategic decision-making procedures in the field of appropriate investment in human resources and increased competitive advantage.

As the business world becomes increasingly complex and more astonishingly competitive; managers are turning to innovation culture as one of the few durable sources of learning and internalizing the brand. In this research; we investigated the Internal Branding Effect on organizational learning with the moderating role of innovative culture as a main hypothesis. To achieve the objective of this study, research was conducted to collect the required information by using standard questionnaires. The current research method is descriptive-correlative and practical, based on the objective. The sample size is (n = 168) employee at the Oil Research Institute and The hypothesis were analyzed through the technique of Structural Equation Modeling with Smart PLS 3 software. By the Cronbach's alpha the stability of the data collected in this study Obtained 0.854. Therefore, the reliability instrument has been decent the results of the data analysis show that internal branding has a positive and significant role in organizational learning. Research findings also confirm the role of moderating innovative culture.

Variety of factors can affect the work-life quality of human resources which is the most fundamental resource of an organization. This study has addressed the effect of occupational health variable on the relationship between workaholism and the quality of work life. The study is considered an applied research in terms of purpose and descriptive survey in terms of methodology. The statistical population included 160 employees of Soroosh platform. According to Cochran formula 113 people were selected among them by the simple random sampling method. The standardized questionnaires of Spens and Robbins, Walton quality of work life as well as the occupational health questionnaire by Goldberg and Hiller were used as data gathering tools. The research hypotheses test was performed by Smart PLS software and research findings confirmed the role of health care mediating role in this regard. In addition, the results indicated that workaholism has a positive and significant effect on quality of work life, yet has a negative effect on occupational health.

The Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP) approach, top-down, client-centered and goal-oriented approach originally developed for children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) in 2001 and since used in other populations and settings. The purpose of this scoping review was to examine the extent (number) and nature (features and characteristics) of the literature on CO-OP in adult’s populations.

In this scoping review, 8 online databases were searched up to April 2018 to identify articles that addressed CO-OP in adult’s populations. The articles were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Two raters reviewed all documents independently. Articles were categorized according to diagnosis.

Fifteen studies were identified. To examine application and effectiveness of CO-OP in adult’s populations we included individuals with chronic stroke (>6 months post-stroke; n=7), with TBI (n=3), with acute stroke (<6 months post-stroke; n=4) and the older adult populations comprised those with self-reported cognitive difficulties but no diagnosis of dementia, depression, or cognitive impairment (n=1). In all cases, CO-OP showed to be useful and efficient.

CO-OP has been applied in TBI, stroke and age-related executive changes appropriately. The results have shown that CO-OP efficiently improved performance and satisfaction in trained and not trained client chosen goals.
