In modern organizations, entrepreneurship mentality and its application is inevitable. What makes an organization successful or not is the capability of its founders. To enhance entrepreneurship, there should be an appropriate basis. An efficient organizational structure is one of the requirements for such a basis. The study was motivated to identify aspects of organizational structure that are related to organizational entrepreneurship. It is a correlational descriptive- survey research; in terms of research questions and the nature of the problem, the research is of applied type. The statistical society consists of 193 employees and experts with higher education degrees. Of these, 130 were statistically chosen and were given a questionnaire. The results confirm the hypotheses. They show that complexity, formality and centralization are negatively correlated to entrepreneurship. Centralization has the highest correlation, while complexity has the lowest complexity.

Human resource is considered as the most important part of every society and organization. It would be difficult to achieve organizational goals without taking into account the employees’ internal motives and desires. The study aims to investigate the relationship between some social factors and employees’ self-efficacy (each individual’s attitude towards his/her efficacy) at Islamic Azad University, Mahabad and Orumie Branches. Results indicate that gender variable has no significant effect on self-efficacy. Education has an effect on it. There is also a significant relationship between the homogeneousness of employees’ fields of study and their positions, their interest in the positions, salary and benefits, the amount of discrimination, employees’ participation in decision making, their freedom to act, job satisfaction, and organizational productivity.

Objectives: This study was carried out to determine mental health of the university students in Islamic Azad University, Abadan branch who were admitted in the academic year 2006-2007.Method: In this cross-sectional and descriptive study, 554 students (366 femal, 188 male) were randomly selected and evaluated on the basis of the General Health Questionnair-28 (GHQ-28). The reliability of the Questionnaire was computed, and the validity was also determined in a separate study including 80 students. Data was analyzed using T-test, ANOVA, and Scheffe test.Results: The study showed that 55.5% of females, and 34.4% of males, and overall 47.7% of all of the subjects had probably mental health problems. The results also indicated a significant difference in mental health status between men and women, single and married, interested and uninterested in their fields of study, and different age groups.However, it was found that there was no significant difference between indigenous and non-indigenous students. Also, the data yielded appropriate validity and reliability for GHQ-28.Conclusion: The high mental health problems in the young population of university students are very important because of their future role in the society. Therefore, we need to come up with plans in order to improve student’s mental health status.

It is crucial that modern organizations have a strategic plan through which it would be possible to achieve a dramatic change in the organizations. Therefore, it is required that every organization or institution make use of SWOT plan to understand imminent threats, opportunities, strengths and weaknesses to promote its applicability. In this paper, SWOT was studied from several perspectives, that is, its function and efficiency were examined in hospitals provided with medical services in Mazandaran. Also, the significance of each factor relevant to function and applicability was determined.The conducted research was a descriptive type carried out among 209 hospital administrators. Meanwhile, sample volume based on Krejcie & Morgan tables was 135 subjects selected randomly. A two-part four angular questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.84 was used for data collection. Descriptive and inferential statistics methods (ANOVA and DUNKEN) were applied for analysis.

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between identity styles, puberty mental health, and depression and education success in high school boys in Qom. All high school boys in Qom were 16813 that of them 260 boys were selected by cluster sampling as subject. Berzonsky’s identity styles inventory (1989), check list of Kumar in mental health and depression Questionnaire of Beck (1999) was used in this study.

The result of this study show that there is a significant direct relationship between informative identity style with education successfully and between informative identity style with normative identity style, confuse identity style, identity commitment, mental problem of puberty and depression was negative significant relationship. And too the relationship between education successfully with mental problem of puberty and depression was negative significant relationship (p<./01). Significant positive relationship was observed between confuse identity style with mental problem of puberty and depression. High level of identity commitment was in normative identity style and relationship between identity commitment with mental problem of puberty was positive, that is the more the score of the subjects is higher in identity commitment the higher his score is on mental problem of puberty. Results of this study were related with pervious studies especially the studies of Berzonsky.

Identity in modern world is innately in crisis. On the one hand, because of vast communications and the proliferation of ideas and on the other hand because of dense population, different cultures and civilization, the modern age is called the age of communications. Information explosion is one of the signs of this age. But the question is whether this information explosion has a positive or negative effect on man’s life. As the young are the main users of Internet and modern technology and cell phones in Iran, the study of the ICT effect on student identity can reveal some aspects of ICT.This study intends to investigate the influence of ICT on students’ identity. The method used in this study is survey. The statistical population of this research is students at Islamic Azad University, Tonkabon, chaloos, Amol, Babol and Sari branches. From among these students, 381 were chosen according to stratified sampling using KREJCIE-Morgan table.The data were collected through questionnaire and were analyzed by SPSS. The findings of the research delineate that ICT has a positive effect on identity.

The present research has been done to investigate the relationship between management style and time management of managers in Bojnord Highschool level within 2008-2009 academic year. It is theoretically based on Robert Houoe's theory of path-aim, which is one of the contingency theories. For this reason, management style is considered as a predictor variable and time management as a norm variable.A descriptive correlational study has been employed to gather data and examine the relationship between variable in a non-experimental situation. The statistical population consists of 49 high school managers, including private and state run schools. They were randomly selected using KREJCIE-Morgan test. To gather data on management styles, a researcher-made questionnaire with a reliability index of 0.92 was used. Time Management Questionnaire (Karamy, 1999) was employed. It has a reliability index of 0.86 and is highly content valid. Frequency table, standard deviation, bar graph and pie charts are used to describe the data. To infer results, Pearson correlation test, scatter diagram, t-test, Cronbach alpha, and horizontal tables along with SPSS software were employed. The results show that there a relationship between management style and time management at 95 percent confidence level. There is also a significant relationship between authoritative, supportive and participatory styles and time management.
