English abstract

Objective: The increasing growth of knowledge production, on the one hand, and the need for community dynamics, on the other hand, have turned a knowledge-based economy into a responsibility. The innovative performance of any country depends to a large extent on a knowledge-based economy (KBE) and elements of the integrated system of knowledge (university, industry, and government). The present study identifies the components of the knowledge-based resistance economy in the Iranian universities of medical sciences. Materials and Methods: The research method is qualitative, and the sample was targeted. The data were collected using library and field methods through conducting interviews with 24 faculty members. All interviews have undergone “content analysis,” have been recorded, turned into a text file, typed in Word, coded, classified with Microsoft OneNote, and analyzed. Results: The results showed that from the view of participating faculty members and key experts, specifying the KBE-based model in the Iranian universities of medical sciences in the quantitative part included six dimensions of ICT, knowledge-based Human resources, structure and management system, capabilities, and facilities and resources, guidelines and obtainable socio-environmental impacts. In this method, after confirming the Cronbach’s alpha of the questionnaire made by the researcher (94%), eight dimensions, including institutional and management systems, information and communication technologies, efficient knowledge-based resistance economy (resources and facilities), innovations and entrepreneurship in medical sciences (modern medical technologies), guidelines and socio-environmental impacts, structural factors, knowledge-based human resources, and inspirational elements and knowledge-based resistance economy recording systems were achieved. Conclusion: According to the results, it can be concluded that focusing on the components of the knowledge-based economy through managing, eliminating redundant rules and reforming deterrent rules, providing the necessary platforms and developing electronic infrastructures, utilizing capacities and human capital, expanding knowledge-based collaborations, policy-making and strategic planning can make the intellectual properties of economy resistant.
