Background & Purpose: Selection and evaluation of people and managers has always been one of the concerns of organizations. In recent years, the employment administrative organization of the country formulated a model to evaluate professional managers, but this model was encountered with weaknesses. Accordingly, the general goal of this research is to design a Performance evaluation tool in evaluation centers using cognitive tools.Methodology: This research is applied in terms of purpose and mixed in terms of approach. In this research, the meta-synthesis method was used. Therefore, the period from 2015 to 2023 was determined for the review of researches. The articles in this period were screened and confirmed using experts’ opinions and Glynn's evaluation tool. Among the 608 articles found, 50 articles were selected from scientific references such as Elsevier, Emerald, Springer, etc. The collected studies were analyzed using content analysis based on the seven-step method of Sandelowski and Russo (2007). The results of meta-synthesis method were evaluated and screened by experts using fuzzy Delphi technique. In this technique, the fuzzy triangle method was used to evaluate and analyze the experts’ opinions. Finally, using the results, the native model was prepared and developed.Findings: The results of this research included six dimensions, 20 components, and 115 indicators. According to the findings, the identified dimensions included decision-making, cognitive abilities, cognitive processes, problem solving, and interactive and behavioral cognition.Conclusion: The use of cognitive factors in evaluation centers can evaluate managers more accurately and provide a better understanding of their Performance.

Dry cupping is one of the main procedures in many traditional medicine systems all around the world with its root in antiquity. Traditional method of dry cupping is depended on practitioner proficiency and can lead to skin burn if the practitioner is a beginner.On the other hand, Zahrawi (11th century AD), the Muslim physician from Andulus (current Spain) presented two novel forms of cup for cupping to improve and correct cupping problems. In this regards, based on the model described in Al-Tasreef, we tried to redesign and manufacture the tools. These tools were made from galvanized iron owing to its nonconductivity of heat. Zahrawi models were compared with traditional model (with the same material and size) by negative pressure of mercury as well as qualitative test performed by a traditional practitioner. The results showed the superiority of Zahrawi’s models (9792Pa and 10200Pa) over the traditional model, displaying a better and more stable vacuum pressure (mean: 8704 Pa with variation in repeat the test). Furthermore, the introduced models are user friendly; i.e., every practitioner, even the beginner without specialized skill, may work with them easily. Therefore, the new model is suggested for dry cupping.

Background: The Performance of the HSE units has various dimensions Leading to different Performances. Thus, any industry should be capable of evaluating these systems. The aim of this study was to design a standard questionnaire in the field of Performance evaluation of HSE management system employing Balanced Score Card model.Methods: In this study we, first determined the criteria to be evaluated in the framework of Balanced Score Card model based on the objectives and strategies of HSE Management System and existing standards, and then designed questions on every criterion. We used content validity and Cronbach's Alpha to determine the reliability and validity of the questionnaire.Results: The primary questionnaire was comprised of 126 questions some of which were omitted regarding the results obtained from the CVR and CVI values. We obtained the CVI average of environmental dimension to be 0.75 and its CVI average 0.71.Conclusion: With respect to the results of the reliability and validity of this questionnaire, and its standardized design we can suggest using it for evaluation of HSE management system Performance in organizations and industries with the mentioned system.

In today’s world, Business Intelligence (BI) tools are recognized as one of the main pillars of evaluating the Performance of organizations in various sectors, including banking. This research examines the role of business intelligence in evaluating the Performance of banks and its impact on improving decision-making processes and enhancing the efficiency of organizations. By using Balanced Scorecard models and BI tools, banks are able to analyze complex data and make strategic decisions. This research has shown that successful implementation of BI in banks can lead to greater transparency, more accurate data analysis and ultimately improve the overall Performance of organizations. However, challenges such as implementation costs, the need for appropriate infrastructure and cultural changes in organizations are among the obstacles to the optimal use of these tools. The present study has identified these challenges and provided solutions to overcome them.

With the introduction of contingency theory into the management accounting literature, this theory was used to explain the factors that are expected to affect the adoption and use of modern accounting management tools. The contingency theory Literature of management accounting is based upon the idea that there is no universally management accounting system that equally applies to all enterprises in all circumstances. The purpose of this study is to present a contingency model of Performance evaluation of firms emphasizing the role of modern management accounting tools. The research data have been gathered from the financial statements and other reports of 85 firms listed at Tehran Stock Exchange during 1394 to 1396, as well as a questionnaire distributed among the financial managers of these firms at the end of 1396. The structural equation modeling approach and SmartPLS software have been used for modelling. The results showed that the use of modern management accounting tools has a positively significant effect on the firm's Performance. Also, the study findings indicate that the relationship between the use of modern management accounting tools and firm Performance are significantly and positively moderated by three contingency factors namely,market competition, environmental uncertainty and company size.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to present model Performance evaluation model influenced by management accounting tools with emphasis on the Contingency theory. Design/Methodology/Approach: Using the internal and external Contingency factors, management and budget accounting tools have been evaluated. In this study, a questionnaire derived from research qualitative studies was based on the opinion of experts.
