Abstract

In the arena of progressive knowledge production and increasing competition, periodical appraisal of RESEARCH CENTERs, in order to come across with problems and obstacles, is an undeniable need. In addition state RESEARCH CENTERs should respond to programming and financial supports. The study resulted to this paper investigated the role of internal organizational factors such as; work circumstances, autonomy; presenting new initiatives, thoughts and plans; appreciating of outstanding RESEARCHERs; transferring new ideas into plans; work satisfaction and etc. influenced to the RESEARCH CENTERs’ activities and PERFORMANCE during the last year of the Ministerial life time. However, it is an applied, post-facto and causal research. The face validity of the instrument was specified by a panel of RESEARCH CENTERs and university members. Questionnaire reliability was estimated by calculating Cronbach’s alpha. Statistical population included 1139 subjects with the educational levels of ‘M.Sc. and above’ of 50 independent RESEARCH CENTERs, institutes, and stations of JIHAD-E-SAZANDEGI. Using the Morgan table and proportionate to size selection method, 288 subjects were selected, but only 155 questionnaires were completed. Summing up the RESEARCHERs’ responses showed that to some extent appropriate circumstances for research and presenting new idea existed but there are insufficient efforts to translate new ideas into plans by the research managers. Somewhat, RESEARCHERs have autonomy in their job but there is not favorable situation for professional promotion. Measuring relationship between investigated variables and research PERFORMANCE of RESEARCHERs and regression analysis indicates the essential role of research circumstances on RESEARCHERs’ output. Therefore, internal circumstances of RESEARCH CENTERs should be suited for research activities by proper arrangements including structural provisions and organizational culture.
