        Aim: The aim of this research was to study the variables associated with creativity in Iran. Method: The research method chosen was meta-analysis in which all research reports were collected by using internal and external information data bank. Some twelve studies from throughout of Iran (2004-2013) involving some 3015 participants were used in this meta-analysis. Data were analyzed using Pearson coefficient effect size method for fixed effect model. All statistical operations accomplished by Comprehensive Meta-Analysis, Version 2.0. Results: results showed that the mean of mixed- model of effect size was 0/496 for fixed effect model and 0/497 for random effect model in which both were significant in 0/001 level. The mean of mixed- model of effect size (0/496) in this research showed the moderate to high on creativity. Conclusions: Also the results showed that there is significant effect size between cognitive styles, internal and external motivation, gender, emotional intelligence, epistemological believes, dimensions of goal direction, mental well-being, personality characters, teacher’s activity and characteristics, intelligence, age, parent’s marital satisfaction, critical thinking, happiness, thinking styles, and direction goal with creativity.   Manuscript profile

        Undoubtedly, job stress plays a key role in the decline and burnout of the human resources in organizations. One problem associated with our contemporary modern life is the appearance of job stress in terms of the work environment. Meta-analysis creates a better understanding of the similarities and dissimilarities of the previous studies conducted in this field and hence allows for a more comprehensive perspective on the research subject. In the present study, the previous studies on the job stress have been classified in terms of such criteria as statistical society, the involved variables, and type of job, and finally 12 studies have been selected as the statistical society of the research. In our proposed meta-analysis, for investigation of the magnitude of the effect of the independent variables on the job stress, the criteria for the effect size of coefficients r and d of Cohen have been used. Our findings show that the variables for age (d = 0.49), gender (d = 0.56), and job experience (d = 0.35) have an intermediate importance in the amount of job stress. Besides, variables for organizational atmosphere (d = 0.62), organizational justice (d = 0.98), work ethic (d = 0.95), and job satisfaction (d = 0.8), each of which used in a separate study, have great importance in determination of the amount of job stress.     Manuscript profile

        This applied qualitative meta-analysis study explored the relationship between intellectual capital and human resource productivity. The research population comprised 50 dissertations, thesis and articles out of which a sample of 13 was purposefully selected to be analyzed. Expert consensus was employed to verify the identification reliability of the selection, categorization of the research data and the reliability of the coding system used. The significance and effect size reliability was checked via expert agreement of two meta-analyzers on effect size calculation. The results of the met-analysis revealed that intellectual capital was correlated with human resource productivity as a moderator variable. It was also found that among the 26 effect size figures calculated, 15 were high (< 0.5), four were low (from 0.1 to 0.3) and 7 were medium (from 0.3 to 0.5). Also, the results indicated that structural and human dimensions had respectively the greatest effect size with regard to their relationship with human resource productivity. Manuscript profile

        The present research aims to conduct meta-analysis of the effect of information disclosure on market reaction. In order to integrate the results of different researches and identify the determinants of relations between information disclosure and market reaction, we used meta-analysis methodology as a quantitative statistical method. In order to implement the meta-analysis method, from the website of foreign journals (published articles related to research variables from 1990 to 2020 and the website of domestic scientific research journals (published articles related to research variables from 1370 to 1399) to They were identified and collected as a statistical population of the research and finally 86 studies have been analyzed by systematic elimination method; The results of studies conducted in the mentioned period and around this relationship, using I2 and Q tests indicate that most of these studies are heterogeneous. In order to identify the cause of this heterogeneity, by dividing the research based on different criteria for measuring information disclosure and market reaction and calculating statistics within the group, we found that these different measurement criteria used in research is one of the contradictory factors in research results. In the following study, observation of mandatory disclosure of financial and non-financial information as well as voluntary disclosure of financial information has a significant and positive relationship with market reaction. Information that voluntary disclosure of non-financial information has no effect on the capital market.. Manuscript profile

        Field and Aims: Many researches on the relationship between social capital and prevention of social crimes have been conducted between different groups and based on different methods. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to use a meta-analytical research model to combine and integrate the results of studies on the relationship between social capital and crime prevention.Method: In order to perform the present meta-analysis, by examining the background of all the researches related to the relationship between social capital and crime prevention that were published in prestigious scientific journals between 1390 and 1399, 17 studies that It was methodologically acceptable, selection and meta-analysis were performed on them. The research tool was a meta-analysis checklist and Cohen's effect size method was used to achieve the overall correlation value.Finding and Conclusion: The results showed that the effect size or coefficient of effect of social capital on crime prevention is equal to 0.48 which by converting the mean d to the value of z in a normal distribution curve according to Cohen's interpretive system, this amount is considered a high effect. Be. In general, the results showed that social capital has a significant effect on crime prevention at the level of (P <0.001). Also, the magnitude of the effects of social capital variables can indicate their importance in crime prevention and guide future research and policy-making in this area. Manuscript profile

In the following study, it was observed that there is no significant relationship between audit components and market reaction, while in contrast, between the types of voluntary and mandatory disclosure, and corporate governance components with market reaction, a significant relationship was observed.Originality / Value: Based on the findings of the present research, financial market activists and investors should pay more serious attention to the way of information disclosure and mandatory disclosure tools and composition of shareholders in their analysis, but audit components are a special guide for choosing the best capital option. It does not offer financial market participants. Manuscript profile

        The aim of this study is to analyze the literature of factors affecting customers' preferences in selecting banks and determining variables as well as determining the effect size of influencing variables on customer preferences in selecting banks. Banks are required to know the behavior and needs of consumers in order to retain customers and gain more market share, and given that numerous studies have been conducted in this regard, and since in these studies the ability to control the research environment, examples and Methods, measuring tools are different from one research to another, the results of research are different and sometimes conflicting, so it is very important to conduct combined research that brings the extract of research in this field in a systematic and scientific way to researchers.  A total of 15 studies were selected and examined with CMA2 software. The results indicate that the following factors have contributed to the preferences of customers in choosing banks: 1. Financial facilities 2. Bank confidence 3. Method of dealing with employees 4. Providing banking services 5. Physical and spatial conditions 6. New and advanced technology 7 -Reputation and validity of bank 8- Security and information preservation 9.The cost of providing services  10 - Quick access to the Bank 11. Marketing.
