The firms in tile and ceramic industry in Yazd province are the target population of this study. This study proposes to evaluate green innovation practices with a particular focus on the managerial, process, product and technology innovation aspects. Structural equation modeling based on PLS method have been used to test the hypothesis. Results showed that green innovation dimensions including green process and technological innovation have significant effect directly on firm performance and also indirectly through the mediator role of environmental performance.

The main purpose of this research is to develop and test a model to enhance our understanding of “How consumers evaluate online and offline channels and how the formation of online and offline purchase intensions and perceived value increase”. In the presented model, service quality, merchandise duality and monetary price are considered as the factors that form value for money, and perceived risk. Time / effort cost, enjoyment and value for money are considered as the factors that form channel purchase intension. The study population consists of online and offline customers known bookstores in Tehran. After information collection through Questionnaire and library studies, the Lisrel software was used to analyze data and model. This study is based on Correlation-survey research method (especially structural equation modeling method). The results showed that channel purchase intensions and how consumers evaluate online and offline channels almost form in accordance with the presented model in this study.
