The impact of technology on administrative bureaucracy with a structural equation approach

Abstract

The process of social evolution and progress and the speed of this evolution depend on many variables, one of which is technology. Some believe that technological advances are changing many aspects of daily life. At present, in many developing countries, including our country, Iran, organisations are showing a great desire to use and use these information technologies. Given that in the future, no factor such as information technology will be able to change the design of organisations. Research in this field will be necessary, so the purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of technology introduction on administrative bureaucracies. The statistical population in a small stage includes all employees of the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance, whose number is 800 people. The sampling method in this study is available. 260 people are using Cochran's formula. Also, to evaluate the variables and measure them in the field, a researcher-made questionnaire has been used. 48.866 and a path coefficient of 0.91 have a significant effect. The introduction of technology has had a significant effect on research strategies in the staff of the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance with test statistics of 2.933 and path coefficient of 0.408 and research intervention factors on research strategies in employees of Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance with test statistics of 3.596 The path coefficient has a significant effect of 0.470 and the research factors have a significant effect on research strategies in the staff of the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance with Azman statistics of 4.253 and the path coefficient of 0.556. Finally, the introduction of technology to administrative bureaucracy and the path coefficient of 0.843 has a significant effect.
