Performance evaluation for each organization is necessary to plan and control. Banks are part of public service and their performance influences peoples life quality, and their performance evaluation is mostly done with DEA models. As other organizations banks include a two-staged network structure. The traditional DEA models are inefficient for evaluation because of not paying attention to internal structure and black-box perspective and can't determine the source of inefficiency well, so in this research first an oriented NDEA model and then a non-oriented model based on Russell idea were developed. In next stage, the presented non-oriented model was used in an applied and experimented study for performance evaluation of 30 banks two-staged structure including deposit-collecting stage and profit-making stage. Also, the risk of banks activities was considered with regard to delayed payments as undesirable output. The result of stages and network efficiency show the research model gives a better evaluation of banks performance. The presented models can be developed to other structures and applications.

The statistical population of this study is composed of employed women that holding governmental jobs in Tehran. Based on the Cochran formula 390 individuals have been considered as the statistical sample. For data collection the standard questionnaires were applied. The validity and reliability of the questionnaires were tested and the required changed were applied. As the results show, the relation between role stress and satisfaction among women is direct and meaningful. About self-efficacy, the result show that this moderating variable plays an important role in this model. It means that whatever the self-efficacy is improved in women the negative impact of role stress on their satisfaction is low.
