This research aimed to design a model for the acceptance of new health services based on the mixed-method exploratory analysis. In the qualitative part, the emerging design of grounded theory was used. The required data of qualitative part were obtained through 18 in-depth interviews with marketing professors and medical experts, and also 20 interviews with the customers of the Royan Institute’s Cord Blood Bank. The data were analyzed through open coding. To examine the validity of the qualitative part, the processes of member-checking, peer-checking, and triangulation were used and inter-coder reliability and test-retest were applied to measure its reliability. The final conceptual model was designed with 7 major categories (including the quality of services, the characteristics of services, perception of acceptors, individual factors, innovation features, reference groups, and sources of information), 22 subcategories, and 93 concepts. The findings obtained in the qualitative phase resulted in the development of 7 scientific propositions that were analyzed in the quantitative part. In the quantitative part, the researcher’s 93-item questionnaire was used in order to gather the data from 404 customers of the Royan Institute’s Cord Blood Bank through simple random sampling. Convergent validity, discriminant validity, and Cronbach's alpha were used to measure the validity and reliability of this part. The data were tested using structural equation modeling. Measures of goodness of fit showed that the factor structure of the designed model was suited to the data and the model was confirmed.

The resent study, try to scrutinize the organizational slack in substantive cotext of organization. To do so, using the emergent approach of grounded theory, 16 comprehensive interviews were conducted with the managerial system of a number of private industries in the province of Khorasan Razavi. The findings of data analysis which were undertaken by constant comparison in coding exercises provided 713 codes, 34 concepts and 6 categories which emerged the research model regarding the main category, titled "Nourishing employees with slack services and opportunities". The model refers to the causes, covariance, conditions, contingencies and the consequences of the main category and the context of the research namely "The 6C's family" in the emergent approach. To sum up, this study identified new perspective of organizational slack and explained "Organizational Metastimuli" theory which fills some lacunae surrounding organizational slack.

The aim of this study was to Identifying psychological Indicators in the process of Succession in sport coaches. The method of this study was qualitative, which was done according to grounded theory method according to apparent approach of Glaser. The statistical population of experts aware of the subject of the research, which according to the purposeful selection of 15 these people were identified as research sample. Sampling was performed until theoretical saturation was reached. The collection tool of present study in qualitative section is semi-structured interview. The statistical method used in the present study included the coding method. The coding performed in this research was done in three sections of open, axial and selective coding. To analyze the data, Maxqda software was used. Results show that the Indicators of sports psychology in process of Succession coaches, including five categories of behavioral, attitude, social, Intervention and health indicator were identified.

Designing a proper control system can provide the necessary, timely and accurate information in the decision-making process of complex situations and appropriate and quick reaction to sudden changes in the environment can be done through flexible strategic options. The bunkering industry (supplying of fuel for use to by ships) is largely unpredictable and have an intense diversity and complexity. In addition, since the environmental turbulence of this industry is relatively high, designing a proper strategic control system can coordinate the different actions of managers and helps the organization make a coherent movement in line with the environment. The purpose of this research is to present a strategic control model in the Bunkering industry. The research approach is qualitatively exploratory based on semi-structured interview with 12 experts in this industry. The sampling was theoretical sampling and based on the theoretical principle of saturation, and MAXQDA software has been utilized for data analysis, driven from the data-based theory strategy with the emergent Glaserian approach using citation-based inductive coding. Finally, the model was designed in the form of 8 levers: political control, boundary control, strategy content control, strategy transformation control, strategy implementation control, interactive control, task control and internal control.

The purpose of this study was to design a model of  professional development od faculty members at Farhangian university. The philosophical basis of the research was pragmatism approach and mixed exploratory method was used. Grounded theory method was the basis of research. In this study, qualitative data were given more value and these data were ahead of quantitative data in terms of time. The method of data collection was knowledgeable in the qualitative part of semi-organized interviews with experts and was analyzed by open, centralized and selective coding methods. Qualitative samples were selected by theoretical, opportunistic and focal groups. In the quantitative section, the sample was selected by multi-stage cluster sampling and census of faculty members (178 people) and students (216). For validation, reflective, composite and structural measurement models were used by the third version of smart pls3 software. In the findings section: educational, research, professional, organizational and extra-organizational skills with 17 components and 76 indicators in the field of teacher training were identified. Academic and structural strategies were presented and individual, organizational and extra-organizational consequences were identified. The results confirmed all major and minor hypotheses except the impact of globalization and socialization components on strategies as well as the impact of professional development on extra-organizational consequences. As a result of the present study, the need for professional development to achieve a successful university was confirmed, and at the end, suggestions were made at three levels: individual, departmental, educational and organizational. ‌‌

The present study explains the non-governmental organization phenomenon and its context in Iran. In this study, the emergent approach of grounded theory methodology was applied, and 20 interviews were conducted with informed people based on the theoretical sampling principle until theoretical saturation was achieved. Then, by coding the resulting data and making continuous comparisons in the coding process, 980 codes, 12 concepts, and one core category emerged. Subsequently, the final model was entitled “asymmetry balance in non-governmental organizations context.” This model illustrates the asymmetric balance in which the NGOs and their associated contexts are more unhealthy than healthy. Besides, the government's attitude towards NGOs is definitely a security one. The results of the research findings emphasize that making changes to improve the healthfulness of this phenomenon and its underlying context is necessary.

Waqf has long been considered a good tradition in Iran. Using grounded theory methodology, this study has presented a cirporate governance model for Āstān Quds Razavi, the largest Iranian endowment organization and one of the largest charities in the world. Data collection was done through semi-structured interviews with senior managers of this institution with at least 10 years of management experience, and the analysis of the obtained data was based on the emergent Glaserian approach, using the 6C family model. The results of the study indicate that most of the achieved principles are shared with the global principles of corporate governance, including transparency and accountability, although the concept of  accountability in the model is different. The provided model is not fully correlated with any of widely used international models, but has lots of similarities with the Anglo-Saxon Model; while the applied theory is similar to the agency theory of corporate governance. Social life, motivation, and inner beliefs are identified as the causes of the main category, named endowment governance, while sustainable development and human dignity are listed as the consequences.

One of the problems that the public officials face at micro and macro levels is the institutionalization of their desired beliefs, values, and behaviors. Various suggestions have been made in the related literature for the institutionalization of the intended culture, which are mostly taken from the epistemic approaches common in the Western societies. One of the main duties of the researchers of the Islamic humanities domain is to put forth theories about and express the requirements of institutionalization based on the Islamic principles and premises. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to examine the requirements of institutionalization of culture related to the individuals (as the addressee of institutionalization) from the viewpoint of the Quran. In this study, the comprehensive free-investigation method was used based on emerging grounded theory. The findings of this study indicate that the main requirements of institutionalization at individual level can be classified into three groups, namely “insight” (including belief in the content; observance of principles and avoidance of compromise; and belief in all religious teachings), “inclination” (including not accepting the guardianship of disbelievers, and being farsightedness and disregarding the transient interests), and “practical behaviors” (including believing in Islam and practicing it, determining redlines, and identifying goals).
