Its aim was to study the effect of understanding the results of faculty members performance by Intelligent Informational System and its effect on promoting the quality of their instructional, researching and implementing activities. The statistical population of the research included the faculty members of Islamic Azad University branches, and the statistical sample consisted of 482 of the population which were divided into two experimental and control groups based on peer groups. The Intelligent System which had been designed before was applied as a tool for evaluating the performance of the faculty members. The results of instructional, researching and implementing performance were produced for two experimental and control groups of faculty members after receiving the required information from both groups by using the Intelligent Informational System for evaluating the performance of the faculty members. The results were sent only for the experimental group, but not for the control group. The results were produced for two groups again after passing one term. The difference of performance between two groups was compared by using t test after and before receiving the result. The findings showed that the independent variable (result or system output) had an effect on improving the teaching and researching performance but had no significant effect on implementing performance of the faculty members.
