Investigating the Effects of Online Social Networks and Group Cohesion on the Performance of Charities (Case Study: Charity Institutions of Tabriz)

IntroductionOrganizational performance and competency assessment are an important mechanism for improving the efficiency of non-governmental organizations and help them to maximize their capabilities, increase their social impact, and, consequently, achieve their ultimate goals. Most of the charities in Tabriz are run in a semi-traditional way and along with the many problems and issues we are facing in the field of charities in this city, the lack of evaluation of charities and their performance and the factors affecting it is also considered a major and important issue.  (Hatami Khaljan, 2023, 87).The purpose of the current research is to measure the performance of charitable institutions and investigate the effects of group cohesion variables, the role of social networks, and contextual variables (the age of the charity institution, the scope of activity of the charity institution, the history of membership) in the performance of the said institutions. Methods The present study was conducted by survey method among managers of 133 non-governmental organizations in Tabriz and SPSS and SMART PLS software were used to analyze the data. From the various criteria that were mentioned in the research literature and interviews to evaluate the performance of Charities, criteria appropriate to the characteristics, facilities, and limitations of the present study were selected and measures were designed. To measure the group cohesion variable, 6 items in the 5-part Likert scale (low, relatively low, medium, relatively high, high) were used, from the sum of these 6 items the group cohesion variable was obtained. These items are based on the adaptation of the Carron et al. (1985) Group Environmental Questionnaire. To measure the role of utilization of Online social networks, measures in the 5-point Likert spectrum (low, relatively low, medium, relatively high, high) have been used. These metrics are extracted from the Kinuthia master Thesis Questionnaire entitled "Investment in Information and Communication Technology and CHARITIES Performance in Kenya" (Kinuthia, 2012.).Findings The results showed that the average performance of non-governmental organizations among the statistical sample (in the range of zero to one hundred) was 70, which indicates the relatively high performance of non-governmental organizations under study. The average group cohesion in the studied samples was 75 out of 100, which indicates that the level of cohesion is relatively high. The average variable of the role of using Online social networks among the statistical sample was 65, indicating that this variable has a relatively high role in the performance of Charities. The use of the Instagram page has the highest number among the research sample and 49% of users have an Instagram page. After that, using the WhatsApp group with 43% is the most frequently used among the samples. The average performance of the samples among the statistical sample (in the range from zero to one hundred) was 70, which indicates the relatively high performance of the studied samples. The results of the hypothesis test showed that the variables of group cohesion and the variable of Online social networks with a coefficient of 31% had the most positive effects on the performance of Charities. The results of the hypothesis test showed that the variables of group cohesion and the variable of Online social networks with a coefficient of 31% had the most positive effects on the performance of non-governmental organizations. According to the managers, the Telegram group with 46.9%, the Instagram page with 44.5%, and the WhatsApp group with 21.8% had the most role in introducing and improving the performance of Charities, respectively, and in the fields of 1- Introduction of charitable institutions in the community; 2- Increasing transparency and better information about the performance of charitable institutions; 3- Satisfying supporters and members; 4- Attracting financial and non-financial aid; 5- Communication with other non-profit organizations; and 6- Attracting the participation of volunteers. There is a significant inverse relationship between the history of membership of managers in Charities and their evaluation of the performance of non-governmental organizations. There was no significant relationship between the variables of age level of operation of non-governmental organizations with their performance and the degree of group cohesion, but the variable of using Online social networks with a coefficient of 30% had a significant effect on increasing group cohesion.ConclusionIn a general conclusion, the results showed that 56.8% of the respondents evaluated the performance of their charity institution at a relatively high level, and the variables of group cohesion and the role of social networks had the most positive effects on the performance of charities, and the role of social networks also had a significant effect on increasing group cohesion. has increased group cohesion by a factor of 30%. The reason for this can be the fact that previously communication between members of a group or organization was only possible through physical presence, but today communication platforms, platforms and new tools for more communication and easy communication, as a result, have provided understanding, intimacy, and cohesion between members. According to Harvey et al. (2018), charities are increasingly using social media tools in fundraising and increasing communication with donors and others. Institutions through. Three major mechanisms are used (1) signaling, (2) escalation of commitment, and (3) social contagion. Finally, the results showed that the total research variables can predict only 25% of the changes related to the dependent variable, and the other changes are related to other variables that have not been studied in the current research and can be investigated in future research.
