        This study was conducted with the aim of designing the financial legal model of capital changes (increase) of public companies in Iranian and British law. The research method of the present study is mixed and it is done with two types of qualitative and quantitative (mixed) approaches. In the qualitative part of the research, in order to collect data, interview questions were developed. In the following, the ISM questionnaire was used. The statistical population of the research included 10 qualified experts who were selected using non-probability and purposive sampling method, and in-depth and semi-structured interviews were conducted with them. The first step of the current study was using the qualitative analysis method (interview editing approach, summarizing them and interpreting concepts and words) to identify the main and subcategories of the research. Then, in the second and quantitative part of the research, the modeling method was used. Structural-interpretive and MICMAC software were used to identify the causal relationships between the main research categories. By extracting the main and sub-categories of the research using the results of the qualitative analysis of the theme and the ISM method, the final model was presented. In total, the pattern obtained consists of 10 main categories. The results of the research showed that the capital structure has an effect on short-term debt, equity and long-term debt. The aforementioned variables also affect the company's behavior in financing operations. The behavior of the company affects the lease and bank loan, long-term debt and bond issuance and further affects the risk management. Risk management also leads to the increase of capital of public companies. In the same way, the amount of influence on the next levels is reduced and the variables of the same level, that is, have mutual interaction with each other. Manuscript profile

        Introduction: This research was conducted with the aim of designing and explaining the model of consumer personality traits based on the impulse buying approach. Research design/methodology/approach: The methodology of the current research was descriptive-exploratory with a mixed approach (sequential type, qualitative-quantitative). The steps include: conducting interviews with women with impulse buying experience and data analysis using the theme analysis method to form the model and then testing and validating the model to identify the final pattern. The participants of the research in the qualitative part were the women of 2 neighboring countries of the Persian Gulf along with 2 southern provinces of Iran, whose impulsiveness in using cosmetics was proven by using RFM and Barratt (1994) tests. In the quantitative part, the statistical population includes all women who use a lot of cosmetics in 3 countries on the edge of the Persian Gulf and women in the southern provinces of Iran. Also, the qualitative analysis of the data obtained from the interviews in the upcoming research was done using the theme analysis method and quantitative data analysis using SPSS and SmartPLS 3 software and at a significance level of 5%. Findings: The findings showed that the research conceptual model includes the variables: feeling the need to buy, tendency to buy impulsively, impulsive buying behavior, consequences, memorization and shopping saturation that this model was tested in the quantitative section and the findings showed at the 95% confidence level, except for one path, all the paths of the model are approved and meaningful.
