چکیده
امروزه، یکی از رسالت‌های اصلی دانشگاه‌ها کمک به توسعه و تحول جوامع از طریق آموزش و پژوهش به ­عنوان دو محور کلیدی مسئولیت آنهاست. تعامل و ارتباط مؤثر میان دانشگاه و جامعه - در سطوح محلی، ملی و بین‌المللی- موجب تقویب این رسالت و زمینه‌ساز ارتقای مسئولیت اجتماعی دانشگاه‌ها می‌شود. مسئولیت اجتماعی دانشگاه‌ها نه‌تنها در شناخت مسائل و چالش‌های محیطی نقش مؤثری دارد، بلکه امکان ارائه راهکارهای کاربردی مبتنی بر نیازهای جامعه را نیز فراهم می‌کند. با همه اینها، یکی از چالش‌های اصلی این حوزه نبود چارچوب علمی دقیق برای طبقه‌بندی و ارزیابی شاخص‌های مسئولیت اجتماعی دانشگاه‌هاست. در این پژوهش با بهره‌گیری از روش تحلیل عاملی تأییدی، یک مدل جامع برای دسته‌بندی شاخص‌های مسئولیت اجتماعی دانشگاه‌ها ارائه شده است. نتایج به‌دست‌آمده نشان داد که مسئولیت اجتماعی دانشگاه‌ها در هفت مؤلفه اصلی توسعه اجتماعی، اقدامات زیست‌محیطی، مسائل اخلاقی، توسعه انسانی، اقدامات علمی- فرهنگی، مشارکت و امور پژوهشی قابل دسته‌بندی است. هر یک از این مؤلفه‌ها زیرمجموعه‌هایی دارند که در مدل نهایی پژوهش ارائه شده‌اند. این مدل می‌تواند مبنایی برای ارزیابی و بهسازی وضعیت مسئولیت اجتماعی دانشگاه‌ها محسوب و در تدوین راهبردهای سیاستگذاری آموزش عالی استفاده شود.

چکیده English

One of the main missions of universities is to contribute to the development and transformation of societies through education and research as two key axes of their responsibility. The connection and communication between the university and society - at the local, national and international levels - strengthens this issue and lays the groundwork for the promotion of the university social responsibility. The university social responsibility plays a role not only in recognizing environmental issues and challenges, but also provides the possibility of providing practical solutions to the needs of society. However, one of the main challenges in this area is that it is not clear how to classify and evaluate the indicators of university social responsibility. This study, using the confirmatory factor analysis, has presented a comprehensive model for classifying the indicators of social responsibility of universities. The results obtained show that the Confirmatory Factor Analysis can be classified into seven main axes: social development, environmental institution, ethical issues, human development, scientific-cultural, partnership, and research affairs. Each of these components has subsets that are presented in the final research model. This model can be created to assess and evaluate the social status of universities and also be used in reforming higher education policymaking pathways.
