Abstract

Tof citrus education of researchers at the Mazandaran Agricultural Research and Training Center This study sought to determine the extent to which intellectual capital affects the performance of researchers in the Mazandaran Agricultural Research and Training Center in the field of citrus training. This research is considered as an exploratory descriptive research in terms of applied purpose and as a descriptive research in terms of visibility. The statistical population also included all helper researchers, numbering 146 people, of which, using Cochran's formula, 110 people were selected as a sample, and with the proportional allocation formula, the share of each center in each city from the sample volume was determined and calculated. To formulate the theoretical framework of the research, the method of documentary study and search through electronic sources and to collect data through interviews and standard intellectual capital questionnaire based on Bontis and Holland model and a researcher-made questionnaire of educational performance has been used. For data analysis, correlation matrix, diagnostic factor analysis, sequential regression and modeling of structural equations were used using SMART-PLS software. The results showed The coefficient of intellectual capital path on the performance of helper researchers was equal to 0.245 and the value of t was equal to 2.637. Path analysis showed that at the error level of P = 0.05, intellectual capital has a positive and significant effect on the performance of researchers in the Mazandaran Agricultural Research and Training Center in the field of citrus production.
