Background and aim: The growth of investigations into the relationship of police performance with security feeling makes the use of a meta-analysis approach doubly necessary. Therefore, the main purpose of the present study is to review and re-analyze the research done in this field and to re-analyze and combine the results of the research to theorize and solve the problem of insecurity feeling. Research methodology: The present study is a meta-analysis. In terms of thematically, the statistical population of the study consists of all studies and research projects related to the research subject from 2005 to 2015 at the entire country and indexed in one of the country's scientific databases; a total of 313 studies were found. For sampling from this population, 52 research documents which fulfill the inclusion criteria were selected and evaluated using second version of CMA software. Findings: The results of the statistical analysis show that in 52 cases, the relationship between police performance and sense of security with 99% confidence is significant and the average effect of police performance (Random combination effects) on security feeling in the sample is equal to 0. 424. Conclusion: According to the findings of this study, police performance in terms of control and supervision, police social capital, efficiency, participation, crime prevention, police social activities, professional behavior, accountability, information, decisiveness, respectful attitude and etc. can be explanatory part of the security feeling in community.

Background and aim: Nowadays, moral crime is taking shape in all areas and social environments. Sports clubs also have a high potential for moral offenses due to their different groups of people. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting moral crime in Tehran's sports clubs. Research methodology: The present study is a survey research and its statistical population consists of all university lecturers, sport club managers and law enforcement managers in Tehran who have the essential knowledge in the field of sport and moral crime. The research instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire designed to investigate the theoretical foundations of the research as well as the Delphi method among some research samples after confirming its validity and reliability. To analyze the data, the structural equation method with the PLS method was used. Findings: The findings show that all identified factors have a significant effect on the formation of moral crimes in Tehran's sports clubs. Meanwhile, managerial factors with the influence of 0. 5 are the most effective ones and political factors with the rate of 0. 115 have the least effect in creating moral crimes in Tehran's sports clubs.

Background and aim: Virtual social networks, especially the telegram messenger network, have essential functions in the transition society and have been directly linked to security and ethical issues in societies. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of telegram messenger network on ethical security in Tehran. Research methodology: This study is a survey research using a researcher-made questionnaire tool to collect data. The statistical population of the study consistes of all users of telegram messenger network in Tehran. Data analysis was done using SPSS software and statistical tests. Findings: Findings indicate that the provision or threat of moral security is the result of the components of social behavior changes such as privacy violations (abuse of private information) and the spreading of false rumors and produced content (textual, audio, visual) about individuals and social and ethical issues. Targeted use of the telegram and ease of access to this messenger network are other influential variables. Conclusion: The results of this study shows that policy making and strategic planning (proactive and opportunistic measures) for targeted use and content guidance as well as legal and formal oversight and control levers, including filtering of some of the offending channels by responsible organizations (counter and counter measures), seems essential in order to maintain and preserve moral security.

Background and aim: Organized crime has been the focus of crime control authorities in recent decades due to its specific nature and the dangerous effects it has on society. Therefore, legislative criminal policy plays a special role in the prevention of organized crime from being repeated in scientific criminal policy. The purpose of this study is to determine the criminal policy status of the Islamic Penal Code of 2013 in preventing the recurrence of organized crime. Research methodology: The purpose of this research is applied and it is documentary research in terms of implementation method. The information is collected from a library of books, theses, articles, doctoral dissertations and credible internet resources and then analyzed in a descriptive-analytical manner. Findings: The findings of the study show that the issue of organized crime has been brought to the attention of the legislator for the first time in the Islamic Penal Code and there are necessary measures in the form of a comprehensive criminal policy to prevent the spread and recurrence of organized crime with the exception of some specific restrictions on the necessity of intensifying the punishment of the criminal offenders. The law does not provide for organized or impermissible enforcement of suspensions, penalties, and adjudication of criminal convictions for perpetrators of organized crime. Conclusion: Considering the results of the research, reform and enactment of the law on the prevention of organized crime is necessary and it is suggested that appropriate legislation should be amended or adopted by adopting appropriate penal policy to prevent the spread and recurrence of organized crime.

Background and aim: The dangerous behaviors of thugs are one of the most important factors in endangering the health of society. The purpose of this study is to determine the role of lifestyle dimensions in predicting high-risk behaviors of thugs in Tehran. Research methodology: The research method is descriptive-correlation. The study population consists of all thugs available and controlled by Fateb public security police in 1396. A number of 194 out of 390 people were selected and evaluated based on Cochran formula by quota sampling method. The tool of the study is Health Adolescent Lifestyle Profile Questionnaire and Adolescent Risk Scale which its validity and reliability have been proven in various studies. Linear regression analysis was used to analyze the data and correlation and Watson tests were used to investigate its assumptions. Findings: The research hypotheses showed that lifestyle and the components of responsibility, stress management, spiritual growth and physical activity have a significant and inverse effect on the risky behavior of thugs, whereas the components of interpersonal relationships and nutrition have no significant effect on the risky behavior of the thugs. Conclusion: The results show that the lifestyle can predict the risky behavior of the thugs and the higher the score of the subjects in the lifestyle profile, the less the risky behavior.

Background and aim: Identification and measurement of chemical constituents in a sample are called chemical profiling. Determining the chemical profile of heroin is an effective step in the scientific discovery of crimes. Determination of the chemical profile and chemometrics is used in strategic studies in criminal chemistry, identifying the origin and route of heroin transit, and comparing the similarities of the heroin detectors. This study investigates the use of gas chromatography and clustering in locating the drug impurities of heroin in Fars province. Research methodology: The purpose of this study is practical and laboratory method. The study population consists of 50 samples of heroin seized from retailers and 50 samples of transit heroin from Afghanistan which the data were generated in vitro using gas chromatography. Exploratory data analysis was performed using principal component analysis. Findings: Findings show that both acetaminophen and caffeine were present in both transited and retail heroin samples to increase their levels as impurities. In terms of drug impurities, of the 100 heroin samples analyzed, a number of 53 ones had acetaminophen and caffeine and 47 samples had only caffeine. The pharmacological profiles of retail and transit heroin were similar and were not significantly different. Conclusion: Discovered heroin in Fars province contains medicinal impurities of acetaminophen and caffeine that are added intentionally to heroin to increase the amount. These impurities are added to heroin by manufacturers or smugglers inside Afghanistan and retailers have no role in increasing it.

Background and aim: The phenomenon of terrorism has been one of the security and social problems of Sistan and Baluchestan province in different periods of history. Despite the high cost and the continued efforts of the government and security forces in terrorism, there are still issues and conditions that provide the necessary background for the creation of terrorist acts. In this regard, the purpose of the present study is to identify the facilitating factors of terrorist acts in the east of Iran with emphasis on Sistan and Baluchistan province. Research methodology: The purpose of this study is practical and the method of implementation is quantitative and the data were collected by a researcher-made questionnaire. The statistical population consisted of 87 full-time law enforcement officers who have served in the Sistan-Baluchistan police and border police services for more than 4 years, each with at least one case of counter-revolutionary terrorist activity in that province. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS software and descriptive analysis. Findings: The findings of the study showed that two categories of situational (territorial and border) and nature (cultural and social) factors are the facilitating factors for terrorist acts in Sistan and Baluchistan, among which the factors related to border situation with an average of 4. 3% and cultural situation with an average of 4. 1 had the most influence in facilitating terrorist acts in the province. Conclusion: According to the findings of the study, in order to prevent and reduce the factors affecting the facilitation of terrorist acts in Sistan and Baluchestan province from the situational point of view, it is effective to take the necessary security measures in the context of these measures and to interact with the opposite country to prevent terrorists from taking refuge in its borders. Also from the viewpoint of essence, creating ethnic, religious, and cultural convergences, aligning the views of the people and authorities with regard to the fight against terrorism and not supporting them are effective.

Background and aim: Virtual social networks have been the subject of many controversies, especially in the area of government policy, given their diverse functions over the past two decades. In this regard, this study aimed to investigate the effect of government policy in the field of virtual social networks on social security from the perspective of youth in Tehran. Research methodology: The present study is a descriptive-analytical survey. Data collection method was used researcher-made questionnaire that its validity and reliability was proven. The statistical population consists of all users of youth and members of virtual social networks aged 18-25 in Tehran; a number of 384 questionnaires were distributed among the statistical population based on multistage cluster sampling. Collected data was analyzed by factor analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression using SPSS 23 software. Findings: The results show that among the indicators of government policy made in the field of virtual social networks, legislation with a correlation coefficient of 0. 58 and implementation of government policy making with a coefficient of 0. 40 had the most impact on the social security of young users. Also, standardized beta coefficients indicated that the solution or planning variable had the highest co4n tribution of 0. 799 and problem recognition with 0. 337 had the lowest share in youth user social security. Conclusion: The quantity and quality of government policy-making in the field of social media can have undesirable effects on the social security of young users. Therefore, in social networking policy, it is necessary to consider the programs of successful societies, interact and coordinate them in order to establish procedural unity in the trusted systems in the implementation of approved programs.
