Abstract Foresight is an analytical-perspective tool that focuses on the alternative futures from the beneficiary fields’ viewpoint (disciplines). The tool helps decision-making processes at different levels. The present study examines different perspectives of future studies and proposes a framework for identifying and prioritizing the effective variables on the aspects of future study in business research. To this end, the different perspectives and policy-making functions of future studies were mapped. The results indicated that familiarity of the participants with future studies was the most effective factor. The variables were also ranked separately based on the aspects. Eventually, the relationship between the variables and the pertinent aspects was measured. Top Keywords Future studies, aspects of foresight, business researches, fuzzy topsis. Top |
