Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to provide a model of happiness for students of primary schools in Tehran. Methodology: In terms of the basic purpose, the present study was exploratory mixed (qualitative-quantitative) in terms of the nature and type of study. The statistical population of the current study included all specialists in the field of happiness, such as psychologists and sociologists, educational sciences, and quantitatively, all managers, educational assistants, and sports teachers in Tehran, which included (220 men and 280 women). Therefore, in the qualitative dimension, the sample size of the research was 16 experts in this field, and in the quantitative dimension, 334 people (144 men, 190 women) were selected using the cluster random sampling method. The measurement tool of the current research is a semi-structured interview form in the qualitative dimension, which was developed using open coding and axial coding. The formation of the said form was finalized with the help of interviews and Delphi technique from experts through selective coding. The validity and validity of this matter was confirmed with the help of experts. The research tool in the quantitative dimension was a 121-question questionnaire, which was compiled by transforming the saturated interview form by experts and by giving weight to the indicators. The reliability of the questionnaire was calculated through Cronbach's alpha and was equal to 0.958. Its validity was obtained with the help of content and confirmatory validity, which was relatively high. The research data were analyzed through the coding process based on the systematic design of the theory derived from the data of Strauss, Corbin (1998). Findings: The method of data analysis in the qualitative dimension including the open coding method, axial coding was done, and after the theoretical saturation of the experts, the model of happiness based on 3 dimensions, 11 components and 121 indicators was finalized. In the quantitative dimension, it was confirmed with the help of factor analysis test, which consisted of 3 dimensions, 11 components and the final model of the happiness pattern was confirmed. Conclusion: Based on the findings, the final model of the dimensions of the happiness model includes, in order, family (parental relations, education, economy), school (teacher, principal, classmates, employees) and environment (culture governing the society, security, rules and regulations, media ha) is.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to provide a model for managing volunteer forces in the Imam Khomeini Relief Foundation (grounded theory).  Methodology: In the present study, the grounded theory method has been used. The statistical population consisted of experts and professors who were knowledgeable in the field of management and could provide valuable information to the researcher. The research sample was selected through chain sampling method (snowball). Data were collected through 15 semi-structured interviews with professors and experts selected by purposive sampling. The data were analyzed through three stages of open, axial and selective coding.  Findings: A model including 5 dimensions, 13 main categories and 41 sub-categories was presented and validated by members' check. Categories are as following: Causal conditions (Having monotheistic faith, having organizational faith, believing in the philosophy of the organization, paying attention to both material and spiritual aspects, having faith and commitment, belief in Velayat-e-Faqih, adhering to revolutionary values, paying attention to Islamic values, paying attention to the value of human relations).

Methodology: This is an applied research in terms of objective, and a descriptive research in terms of collecting data. In addition, according to the objective and nature of the research, this is an exploratory research. The statistical population consists of all faculty members working in Islamic Azad University; i.e.31000 members. Based on cluster sampling method and Morgan table, the sample must include 379 members; however, for prevention of probable loss, we finally selected 500 members. Data is collected through interviews and a questionnaire. The validity of the research instrument is confirmed by content validity. The reliability is measured based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Findings: The findings define factors affecting organizational architecture as: educational and research factor, organizational support and participation factor, physical factor, size of organization, and psychological factor.
