Economic growth is affected by the speed of and innovation. This is possible due to the rapid evolution of technology, shorter product life cycle. Corruption is also one of the most important challenges affecting the development prospects of countries at the national and international levels. Corruption is affected by several factors, such as innovation, population, volume of government activities, human development index, degree of commercial openness, rent of natural resources, etc. Also, corruption is influenced by international conditions and spillover from other regions, especially neighboring countries. Countries with common borders have similar characteristics and lead to similar behaviors that can affect corruption. The purpose of the current research is to investigate the factors affecting corruption with an emphasis on innovation for the country of Iran and six neighboring countries with a land border with Iran, using a dynamic spatial panel approach in the time period of 2008-2022. The results show that innovation and human development index have a negative effect on corruption in Iran and neighboring countries in the short and long term. The variable of the ratio of government expenditure to GDP in the short and long term has a positive relationship with corruption. The variables of corruption interval, spatial interval of corruption, population and rent of natural resources have a positive effect on corruption in Iran and neighboring countries, but they have different short-term and long-term effects on corruption.

The current research aims to investigate the effectiveness of scientific innovation on the productivity of the labor force in Islamic countries with the use of health as a mediating variable with an analytical approach. In this study, data panel and Eviews 13 software were used, which examines and analyzes independent variables on labor productivity during the period of 2010-2022. The variables examined in this research include per capita physical capital, technology, innovation, education, health care expenses, and life expectancy. The variable index of physical and human capital, respectively, is the calculation of net capital formation on the number of employees and the average years of education, which has a positive effect on labor productivity, as well as the index of the number of articles published in scientific and technical journals as a substitute for the variable of innovation and technology export. Advanced, which is a representative for the technology variable, and the index related to health measurement, which life expectancy and health cost per capita is considered as a substitute for the level of health and health, with its improvement, it increases the level of productivity of the labor force. . The results of the research show that all the variables used in the research have a positive and significant effect on the growth of labor productivity in the group of Islamic countries.

The recent economic growth theories believe that the inovation developed in response to economic incentives is the main engine of technological progress and economic growth traditionally. Thus this study investigates the role of capital and R&D activities in Iran, Turkey and Malaysia with distributed lag regression during 1981-2012. The result indicates that in the long term, in Malaysia, impact of R&D activities, is sustainable and more stable on economic growth in comparison with Iran and Turkey. Also the R&D investment compared with physical capital has a greater impacton economic growth inTurkey and Iran.

This study examines the impact of entrepreneurship on economic growth in selected countries, using data from the 2008 addresses. The study is applicational and gathering of data is doing through attributive style. Using the Romer endogenous growth model, variables that influence the growth of entrepreneurship, along with other important variables entered into the model. Three different indicators to measure entrepreneurship, including Global Entrepreneurship Monitors indexes are used. The results of the model estimated by Ordinary Least Squares support each other for sectional data in all three indexes, that this is will strengthen consistency and accuracy of results and findings. Findings suggest significant effects of entrepreneurship on economic growth. Of course, the amount and type of impact depends on the level of countries’s per capita income. So that in countries with high per capita income, entrepreneurship has positive effects on economic growth and entrepreneurship in low income and poor countries has a negative effect. According to the research’s results, entrepreneurship should be emphasized especially on the basis of innovation in the developed countries and is felt the need for government incentive policies to increase their participation in the economy in the form of entrepreneurship in developing countries also.

The process of technology growth through internal research and development (R&D) is slow and expensive in developing countries. Technology has an inevitable role in production and industry; therefore countries will be able to benefit from spillovers effects through bilateral trade. In other words, every country and to be more specific, developing countries can have access to high-tech followed by growth and productivity in less expense through trade with developed countries. In this respect, growth and productivity of any country can be affected by investment in domestic R&D as well as R&D of trade partners. This research is an investigation of the effect of R&D spillovers and innovation of Iran trade partners on the country's economic growth from 2000 to 2009. According to gravity model, the results show that all the included variables - GDP of partners, population, spillovers of domestic and foreign R&D as well as innovation - have significant influence on Iran's economic growth.
