What is a scientific research paper?
Scientific research articles are one of the most important types of domestic articles. These articles are considered original research articles in terms of structure and content. A scientific research article refers to those articles in which the researcher conducts targeted experimental research in order to answer a scientific question. The researcher reports all the stages of his research completely and in detail. This report, which is presented in the form of an organized structure including abstract, hypotheses, previous studies, research method, results, and interpretation of results, is called a scientific research paper.

Abstract
Decision support and business intelligence systems have been increasingly adopted in organizations while understanding the nature of affecting factors on such adoption decisions needs receiving much academic interest. This article attempts to provide an in-depth analysis toward understanding the critical factors which affect the decision to adopt business intelligence (BI) in the context of the banking and financial industry. In this regard, it examines a conceptual model that shows the impacts of different technological, organizational, and environmental factors on the decision to adopt BI by a firm. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used for data analysis and testing the relevant hypothesis. The results of this article which are derived from the theoretical discussion of hypotheses show that nine hypothesized relationships—perceived tangible and intangible benefits, firm size, organizational readiness, strategy, industry competition, and competitors’ absorptive capacity—affect BIS adoption in the surveyed cases.
