Presenting the model of factors affecting the management of Iran's Road Transport Industry (Case study of Isfahan Province).

This research was carried out quantitatively to analyze the management of road transport of cargo and goods in Isfahan province with an emphasis on the political and security dimensions. Through semi-structured interviews with 8 subject matter experts, the management components of the road transport industry were identified. In the next step, the data extracted by the survey method was used as the basis for compiling a researcher-made questionnaire in the dimensions of environmental, economic, technical, process, operational, legal and human resource damages. The statistical sample in this phase was estimated to be 269 people through Cochran's sampling formula and was selected by the available random method. The validity of the data was confirmed through formal, content, and construct validity, as well as its reliability through Cronbach's alpha greater than 0.7. The results show that the average of all identified dimensions is higher than average (3); The results also show that the highest influence coefficient in process damages is (0.147) and the highest predictive power belongs to technical damages (0.245). The model fit criterion shows that the influence and predictor coefficients of the model are reliable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
