The test of the effect of speculative price bubble and f inancial leverage on the real rate of return of manufacturing companies admitted to the Tehran Stock Exchange
type: item
description: The main objective of this research is to examine the impact of speculative price bubbles and financial leverage on the real return rate of manufacturing companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange during the period of 2023-2019, employing a panel data econometric approach. To this end, the theoretical foundations and literature review are presented first, followed by the specification and estimation of the research model, which is conducted using relevant diagnostic tests and the fixed effects method. The estimation results indicate a significant positive relationship between the independent variables (the actual cash dividend in the previous period, which represents a rational speculative price bubble in the research model, and the financial leverage variable) and the real return rate of the selected sample. Specifically, the first hypothesis of the study, which posits that rational speculative price bubbles significantly influence the real return rate of manufacturing companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange, was confirmed. Additionally, the second hypothesis, stating that financial leverage significantly impacts the real return rate of the selected sample, was also validated. Finally, recommendations based on the research findings are presented to mitigate the effects of speculative price bubbles and to enhance the impact of financial leverage on the real return rate of the selected sample.

Measuring the impact of Social and Environmental Commitments on ROA in Cement Companies
type: item
description: The purpose of this study is to propose a model for assessing the impact of environmental social commitments on the return on assets (ROA) in cement industry companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange, considering the moderating role of board independence. In this research, the independent variables include the environmental social commitments of cement companies and the agency theory factor (board independence). The dependent variable is the return on assets, while firm size, financial leverage, and age are the control variables. The study utilizes data from 36 cement companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange over a five-year period from the beginning of 2019 to the end of 2023. The hypotheses are tested using multiple regression analysis with panel data methodology under fixed effects. The results reveal a significant and positive relationship between environmental social commitments and return on assets. Furthermore, the findings of the second hypothesis confirm that board independence, as a factor in agency theory, moderates the relationship between environmental social commitments and return on assets.

Green Human Resource Management and Social Capital: The Key Role of Policy Implementation in Organizational Sustainability
type: item
description: Organizational sustainability, as one of the key goals of modern management, requires approaches that simultaneously enhance the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of an organization. This study examines the impact of green human resource management (GHRM) on organizational sustainability, considering the mediating role of social capital. This quantitative, descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 200 managers and employees of industrial and service companies that have implemented GHRM policies. Data were collected using a standardized questionnaire, and its validity and reliability were confirmed. Data analysis was performed using SPSS and SmartPLS software, employing statistical methods such as correlation analysis, multiple regression, and structural equation modeling (SEM). The statistical analyses showed that GHRM has a significant positive impact on organizational sustainability. Social capital also positively influenced organizational sustainability and played a meaningful mediating role in the relationship between GHRM and organizational sustainability. The model fit indices indicated a good model fit (Chi-Square/df = 2.15, RMSEA = 0.045, CFI = 0.93). The findings suggest that GHRM policies directly and indirectly (through social capital) contribute to improving organizational sustainability indicators. Social capital acts as a facilitating factor that enhances the impact of GHRM on organizational sustainability. These results highlight the importance of formulating and implementing green HRM policies and fostering social interactions within organizations to promote sustainability.

type: item
description: Entering regional markets is often accompanied by numerous challenges for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This study aimed to design an entrepreneurial marketing model to facilitate the entry of SMEs into regional markets. This research employed a descriptive-analytical approach using a mixed-methods design (qualitative and quantitative). In the qualitative phase, semi-structured interviews with managers and marketing experts were conducted to identify key influencing factors. In the quantitative phase, the proposed model was evaluated through surveys and statistical analysis. The results revealed that key factors, including innovation in marketing strategies, access to financial and human resources, development of business networks, and adaptability to market changes, play a significant role in the success of SMEs entering regional markets. The designed model integrates these factors into a practical framework that can assist managers in strategic decision-making during market expansion processes. This study demonstrates that entrepreneurial marketing, as a novel approach, can serve as a powerful tool to overcome barriers to entering regional markets.

Investigating the Relationship between Energy Production and Consumption and Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Iran Compared to the World
type: item
description: This study investigated energy production and consumption regarding pollution production in Iran compared to the world. Important factors such as population growth, industrial development, and increased production activities and services require energy consumption. They have consequences regarding global environmental threats. These threats are more significant due to insufficient public awareness of energy consumption and the low efficiency of energy-consuming equipment, especially in underdeveloped countries. The present study aims to identify the relationship between energy production and consumption in the environment. It investigates the relationship between energy production and consumption and compares its role in greenhouse gas production in Iran and the world. The results of the study indicate that the current trend of energy production and consumption in the world plays a key role in increasing greenhouse gas production. Iran's relative share is higher compared to the amount of energy consumption and carbon dioxide production in the world. This article provides useful information for policymakers, activists, and experts on the relationship between global energy consumption and prospects resulting from the destructive impact of greenhouse gases caused by energy production and consumption in Iran.

Resilience Behavior of Farmers to Climate Change and Effects on Food Security in Iran
type: item
description: The Khuzestan province is among the main production areas of wheat, one of Iran's most important strategic products. In recent years, this province has faced severe environmental problems, including climate change. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to resilience behavior of farmers in this region to deal with the negative effects of climate change and its effect on food security. This cross-sectional survey study was conducted from June 2022 to January 2024. The population consisted of wheat farmers in the Khuzestan province, Iran (N=22500). The sample size was determined based on Morgan table (n=378). For analyzing food security level, the 18-item USDA Household Food Security (HFS) questionnaire, which contains questions that underlie the 12-month food security scale in survey-instrument form, was used. Based on the results, about one-third of households (36.43%) were experienced HFS and 63.57% were insecure. To analyze livelihood resilience to climate change, the LRCC model of farmers, which includes three components of self-organization, capacity of learning and buffer capacity, was used. Also, based on the Average Variance Extracted (0.514<AVE< 0.711) and Composite Reliability (0.801<CR<0.923), the questionnaire had a convergent validity and appropriate reliability. SPSS16 and Smart PLS software were used to analyze the data. Results of research showed that LRCC had a significant impact on the HFS. According to the results, it is recommended that, by careful planning, sufficient benefits be gained from the potential of LRCC model in the future development policies of HFS, so that an effective step can be taken toward rural development.

Identification and Explanation of the Relationship Between Credit Risk Management Constructs and Strategic Knowledge Management Approach in the Banking Industry
type: item
description: Updating banking structures is a fundamental factor for the continuity and success of banks, influenced by technological advancements, regulatory changes, and the evolving needs of customers. Therefore, this study aims to identify and explain the constructs of credit risk management and strategic knowledge management approaches, analyzing their relationship in optimizing banking management processes. To achieve this objective, the researcher adopted a qualitative approach and employed the meta-synthesis method, which is a systematic analysis technique for integrating diverse research evidence. Academic papers from various databases, including Web of Science, Scopus, and EBSCO, were reviewed using specific search engines and relevant keywords. After an initial screening process and following the PRISMA statement, 39 relevant and high-quality studies were selected for final analysis. Subsequently, thematic analysis was used to process the extracted data. In this method, the researcher first coded the data and identified key concepts. These concepts were then categorized at different levels of abstraction, resulting in 150 conceptual codes, which were grouped into 15 components and five main constructs. These constructs include risk identification and analysis, model development and optimization, compliance and adaptation to standards, data and information management, and performance evaluation and monitoring. Findings indicate that leveraging knowledge-based strategies can effectively assist banks in identifying, assessing, and managing credit risks. The study concludes that developing knowledge-driven management models is essential for enhancing banks’ performance in response to economic and financial challenges. This research contributes to filling existing gaps in the academic literature and offers practical solutions for the banking industry.

Breaking Boundaries, Exploring the Unseen Dynamics of Sports Brand Globalization and Its Impact on Human Health in Emerging Markets: A Systematic Review
type: item
description: This systematic review examines the impact of global sports brand globalization on human health in emerging markets. As global sports brands expand their influence, they play a significant role in shaping consumer behavior and physiological and health outcomes in developing regions. The review aims to explore both the positive and negative effects of global sports brand marketing on health. A comprehensive search was conducted to identify relevant studies published after 2019, focusing on both qualitative and quantitative research that addressed the influence of sports brand marketing on physical activity, physiological aspects of health behaviors, and nutrition. The findings indicate that global sports brands contribute to promoting healthier lifestyles in some regions, such as increased participation in physical activities, sponsorship of local sports events, and accessibility to affordable sports equipment. However, the promotion of unhealthy products, such as high-calorie foods and sugary drinks, through sports branding also has adverse physiological health implications, leading to concerns about rising obesity rates and related diseases. Cultural and socio-economic factors significantly mediate the impact of global sports brands on health, with varying outcomes across different regions. In some countries, global sports branding contributes to positive health outcomes, while in others, it exacerbates unhealthy consumption patterns. The study concludes by highlighting the need for further research that addresses the limitations of existing studies, including publication bias, language bias, and the evolving role of digital marketing and influencer partnerships in sports branding.

Effects of different harvesting times on the yield and protein content of Bami alfalfa under micronutrient foliar application in Kerman region
type: item
description: Application of an appropriate harvesting time in forage crops plays an important role in yield production, so that if the crop is not harvested timely, the yield decreases even in case of foliar application. Effects of different harvesting times on the yield and protein content of Bami alfalfa were investigated here under foliar application in a split-split plot experiment in time unit based on complete random block designs with four replications in Shahid Zendeh Rooh Kerman Agricultural Research Center (10 km of Jopar road) during 2013 crop year. The Bami cultivar used here was harvested in four different cuttings. The uppermost yields were respectively 6.98, 8.5, 9.3, and −10 for fresh forage, and 24.85, 29.86, and 29.4 for the dry matter. The highest leaf-to-stem ratio was obtained in the first cutting. The first and second cuttings contained the highest (29.73%) and lowest (24.85%) dry matter contents, respectively. Dry forage yield was uppermost (6 t/ha) in the first cutting. Protein levels varied in different cuttings, with the second and fourth cuttings having the highest value (18%). The interaction of Bami alfalfa in different cuttings revealed the superiority of the second cutting to the other ones. This cultivar also had the highest values in some traits among the other cuttings; as a result, Bami cultivar can be superior to other cuttings in Kerman region.
