The subject of the present study is the criticism and pathology of the articles in the field of “Nafthat ol-Masdoor”-related research. Due to the lack of record of “Nafthat ol-Masdoor”-related research, the present article tries to achieve the purpose of compiling “Nafthat ol-Masdoor”-related research, describing the status of research and criticism and pathology of the articles. For this purpose, a descriptive-analytical method of quantitative-qualitative analysis with a critical approach and citing library and documentary sources is considered. The research results in the record section show 140 articles in this field. In the criticism and pathology section, being general considering the titles, weaknesses in the theoretical foundations and some structural parts of the article, description of examples instead of analysis, defects in resources, ignoring the new perspectives of critiques and theories, and types of background research shortcomings are discussing, which have some consequences including the repetition in subject, finding, and result, central education, confusion and scattering of the materials, and finally researcher's confusion and keeping articles away from innovation. The authors, while enumerating the structural errors of the articles that are closely related to each other, suggest some solutions such as turning to meta-critique, meta-study, meta-discourse, and the fields of scientometrics at the end of the research.
