Abstract

Introduction: One of the strategies for sustainable development is to pay attention to higher education and the productivity pattern of faculty members. The present study has been formed with the aim of creating change in universities by presenting the productivity model of faculty members in the region of eight Islamic Azad universities.
Method: This research was applied in terms of purpose; in terms of data, exploratory mix and in terms of implementation of longitudinal and cross-sectional data. In the qualitative phase, the qualitative statistical population consisted of key experts, experts and key informants in the subject area of the research that were sampled based on an informed and purposeful approach. The population of the study consisted of 7103 faculty members of Eight Islamic Azad University, which based on Cochran formula, the sample size was 364. For data collection, library and field method were used in qualitative phase and field method in quantitative phase. Theoretical saturation techniques, specific coding procedures, and symbols and symbols analysis were used to determine the validity of the qualitative stage tool. Content validity was used to measure reliability and Cronbach's alpha coefficients of skewness and elongation were used to measure reliability.
Results: Qualitative data analysis was performed using theoretical coding method and quantitative data analysis was performed using structural equation modeling. Finally, the productivity model of the faculty members of the eight Islamic Azad University with 5 dimensions, 16 components and 102 indicators was obtained.
Conclusion: The proposed model can be used in Iranian universities for the benefit of faculty members and also for its pathology.
