Analyzing the relationship between gender and space elucidates the roles and needs of both men and women, particularly in urban spaces. This analysis aids in understanding how the constructive roles of women contribute to the production and reproduction of desirable social relations in urban spaces. The presence of women in public and urban spaces not only reflects but also narrates the desirable relationships within a society. The primary objective of this research is to identify the dimensions and components that influence the formation of desirable urban spaces for women using the meta-analysis method. The searches were conducted manually, focusing on the keywords "urban spaces, women." For sub-keywords, the terms "park, public space, single-gender spaces" replaced the first keyword. The study period spans from 2016 to 2022 in Persian sources and from 2016 to 2022 in English sources. SPSS software was employed to conduct meta-analysis tests, resulting in the production of forest, bubble, heterogeneity, and funnel (diffusion bias) diagrams. VOSviewer software was used to assess scientific databases for content production in this field. The results indicate that the main dimensions of the research encompass physical and functional dimensions, structural and spatial dimensions, individual and personality dimensions, and cultural and social dimensions in the design of urban spaces. The position of research in the field of urban space design for women holds significance in the global research literature.

Work-family balance refers to the synchronization of family and occupational roles. Undoubtedly, the content and policymaking system’s approach to this issue is one of the main factors affecting realization of satisfactory condition of the women's employment system and realization of a constructive balance between work and family in women's lives. This study aims to investigate the flow and trends of women's employment policymaking and how these policies consider the work-family balance for women using meta-analysis method. In this study, the meta-analysis of policymaking in the field of women's employment and considering extent to which they relate to create balance between work and family domains suggests that policymaking area has failed systematically to achieve goals such as balance between employment and family. Also, based on the principle of women's dignity and paying attention to create dignity for women, to organize employment, so the policies adopted during these years are in a basic and content disturbance which is not proportional to the woman at the level of the Islamic Revolution.

The growth of divorce in Iranian society and its negative consequences have made it necessary to pay attention to this social problem. The purpose of this study is to present strategies to reduce divorce and its negative consequences. For this purpose, we have used qualitative meta-analysis method, by examining 70 selected divorce studies in the last two decades (1998-2018), it has classified the factors of divorce and its negative consequences and then presented strategies for reducing the divorce and its negative consequences. Based on the findings, the factors of divorce can be classified into four categories of incorrect spouse choice, lack of knowledge and skills of spouses and maladaptation, bad performance of spouses, and adverse economic conditions. Accordingly, we can propose solutions based on training courses and consulting services by the responsible entities, and obligation of spouses to participation. We have also studied the negative consequences of divorce for women and children. Solutions to reduce these consequences are including eliminate legal challenges, teaching parents to minimize divorce harms for children, providing counseling services, culturalization and family support for divorced women, and reforming society's attitude to divorced women and their children.
