Within the first few sentences of reading this report I thought to myself "are these guys undergrads?" Then I saw it was written in Iran, which is ruled by a totalitarian regime, further weakening any credibility the content of the report might have been able to earn. Corruption is rife in such countries. The methodology section was ridiculous too. Another thing I assess is the journal itself. I haven't checked this one, but some of these "journals" are not real academic journals. There is usually no or weak peer review. Some of them are just private moneymaking enterprises with no scholarly credentials whatsoever. Of all the academic disciplines, IMO, sociology is the worst for this sort of thing. At least in the physical sciences there is an ability to determine whether the research was even logical and possible. LOL</blockquote>
