In recent decades, money laundering methods have become much more innovative due to the development of financial products and services offered, the complexity of financial communications, the advancement of technology, and the acceleration of cash flows around the world. Banks are most affected by money laundering. In this regard, one of the most important risks faced by banks and financial institutions is money laundering risk. Therefore, the main purpose of the present study was to design a model for money laundering risk in banks and financial and credit institutions. A mixed research method was used with a sequential exploratory approach. In this study, first, qualitative data was collected and analyzed followed by quantitative data collection and analysis in the second stage. To meet this challenge comprehensively and systematically, all indicators in the field of money laundering risk in banks and financial institutions that were effective were extracted. Through interviews and documentary studies using the qualitative method of grounded data theory, the effective indicators were identified, extracted and placed into 23 organizing themes and 96 basic themes. In the quantitative part and in order to confirm the components from the perspective of experts, the factor analysis method was used. The results showed the significance of the measurement models and structural equations at the 99% confidence level.

The lack of agility in supply chain structures causes many problems in manufacturing and service organizations. Organizations can use business intelligence as a tool to achieve agility and use its benefits.  However, its utilization is always accompanied by a great deal of challenges. This study aimed to design a native model in order to identify strategic bottlenecks and use business intelligence to increase supply chain agility. This study was carried out in two phases. In the first phase (qualitative stage), the strategic bottlenecks were identified by the use of academic and industrial experts’ opinions in the form of Grounded Theory. Then, the relationships between strategic bottleneck elements were identified through DEMATEL method and the research model was extracted in the quantitative step of the research. This was followed by structural equation modeling with partial least squares method applied to fit the model. The statistical sample of this section included the employees of Pegah-e-Gharb Company. According to the research results, nine strategic bottlenecks were identified in the form of 25 sub-categories. Based on the model developed in the present study, communication with customers can positively and significantly affect system flexibility, compliance with business needs, and quality of information sharing in Pegah Company.

Value changes along with structural changes and increasing levels of education have created dramatic changes in the way men look at life and its patterns. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the lifestyle of single men. This article studies the various dimensions of the lived experience of single men using the background method (data foundation). The statistical population in this study comprised of single men over 28 years of age in Tehran. The research was carried out by purposive sampling method and using semi-structured interview tools until theoretical saturation was achieved. The study was conducted by interviewing 32 single men. In the coding step, 520 open codes, 100 core codes and 20 selected codes were extracted from the interview. Throughout this research, the guidance of professors was used to increase credibility and reliability. In the final stage, the lived experience of single men with a focus on modern lifestyles was identified as the main factor. The constructed phenomenon of modern lifestyle is the result of the use of art in leisure, watching foreign channels and the use of social space, which led to strategies to reduce adaptation to unhealthy interactions and entertainment. Decreased family relationships, emotional problems, the multiplicity and normalization of relationships with the opposite sex, disorder in life and attention to clothes are the consequences of the mentioned phenomenon.

The present study seeks to investigate the behavioral entropy challenges of auditors in an audit organization using grounded theory. The results of this study show that the behavioral entropy categories of auditors of auditing organizations comprising of level of disclosure, economic factors, infrastructure, audit system, criteria, collective thinking, adherence to principles, professional investment and analytical surveys have been identified as underlying factors. Lack of specialized working group on auditing standards, lack of development of auditing knowledge, institutions' inattention to reports, measuring auditors' efficiency, low level of auditors' knowledge, lack of job security of auditors, non-observance of auditing behavior, lack of specialized auditing committee and lack of experts were introduced as inputs. Limitations on audits, different auditing process, political pressures and communications, inconsistencies and dichotomies between accounting standards and laws and regulations, lack of proper auditing, lack of boundaries, lack of strong communication between auditors, instability of auditors and limitations of intrinsic properties were identified as processes. Consequences of the behavioral entropy of auditors of the auditing organization included failure to achieve goals, diminishing the role of auditors, increasing audit costs and risk, reducing public trust, damaging the auditor's profession and reputation, reducing the efficiency and effectiveness of auditors, adverse decisions, and undesirable comments.

The gap between industry and university education, along with the incompatibility of these educations with labor market needs, leads to a steady increase in the unemployment rate of university graduates. This study, therefore, has aimed to propose a skill-oriented model for vocational students using grounded theory.This research is an exploratory approach in terms of purpose, and has drawn upon descriptive-analytical approach.The statistical population of the research for the first stage is previous literature published in the domain of skill-orientation which was selected by simple and accessible sampling procedure. The statistical population consists of the second stage of education were the experts who were selected by purposeful sampling method in four focus groups, each including six persons.Mixed method (quantitative and qualitative content analysis and descriptive statistics) was used to analyze the data using MAXQDA. The findings were divided into six categories, namely causal categories, strategic categories, contextual categories, intervention categories, and outcomes, and suggestions were also provided.

Considering the importance of renewable energy in solving the energy crisis and air pollution, in this article, the underlying factors and the dimensions of green jobs are identified and analyzed. In this research, grounded theory (field theory) was used with purposive sampling (snowball) and theoretical saturation criterion. Semi-structured interviews with 50 experts were used for collecting data. Using the indicators and its components, a researcher-made questionnaire was distributed among the suppliers of wind energy businesses. According to the results, the jobs that lead to solving the critical environmental energy and air pollution, have the necessary indicators required for greenness. Five types of jobs in the filed of wind energy were introduced green, but their degree of greenness was different, and were classified according to the importance of being green.
