Dissertations are a part of the outputs of the research system of our universities. It is necessary to evaluate them periodically to ensure that their quality is developing. In some countries such as U.S.A, dissertations have been evaluated annually based on several criteria. In Iran, dissertations of some fields such as sociology and management have been studied and evaluated against such criteria as: the quality of the methodology, references and documentations, theories tested and etc. In U.S.A., dissertations have been evaluated based on the importance of titles, methodological credit and so on. one type of these evaluations is meta analysis which evaluates the previous researches to summarize and synthesize them when their findings are inconsistent to find out the cause of the inconsistencies and conflicts between them. This kind of research is sometimes called the evaluation of past researches or evaluation of evaluations. In this article meta analysis, its functions, its benefits and its process will be discussed.

Past studies suggest that the structure and composition of
ownership affect a firm's goals, strategy and I or performance. Most of these studies, rely mainly on cross sectional, multivariate analysis, that tend to reduce the complexity of the corporate ownership concentration, ignoring, interaction amongst different forms of ownership, and their effect on firm strategy and I or performance. Focusing on the role of institutional owners, this study poses the following question: (1) What is the relationship between institutional investors shareholding and firm performance? (2) Does the size of shareholding by other groups of stockholders, modify this relationship? And ,does corporate governance of a firm and its ownership structure perse, describe differences in performance of the firms. The data sample is based on 131 non-financial companies listed in the stock exchange of Tehran. Data were collected for a 5 year period (1996-2000). Results from Anova, component analysis and multivariate analysis indicate that, the size of outside institutional stockholding have significant effect is greater for smaller firms. Further investigation, shows that other groups of stock holders do not supplement the relationship between institutional shareholding and firm performance Findings also suggest that the ownership structure and governance of the firm can partly define the variation in firm performance.
