In the last decade, in the political system of the Islamic Republic of Iran, we have witnessed the behavior of government administrators who, due to the degradation of their power and position, have caused serious damage to their records and their past achievements, as well as the system that is the result of their own achievements. To theorize this behavioral model of government managers, a metaphor was taken from the disease of masochism. Masochistic personality is a personality type in which people tend to exhibit self-destructive behaviors. The purpose of the research was to theorize the emergence pattern of masochistic behavior of public administrators by taking the metaphor of a mental illness. The research method was metaphorical theorizing, and the research data were collected and analyzed using the grounded theory method and Glasser (appearing) productivity method. The basis of the study was the research of the political system of the Islamic Republic. As a result, interviews were conducted with 15 experts in public administration and political science (using a targeted method) to collect data. The method of data analysis was based on three-stage open, central and selective coding. The results obtained from the data analysis were divided into four main components of masochistic personality of public administrators, masochistic ideology of public administrators, masochistic policies and masochistic atmosphere, and then these four components were divided into two general categories of masochistic values and system. Cultivating masochism was categorized as the main reasons for masochistic behavior of public administrators. Finally, the consequences of managers' masochistic behavior were identified and strategies were suggested for them. In the general summary of this research, according to the opinion of experts, the policies of the system in the selection of public administrators are the main reason for the occurrence of masochistic behavior of public administrators, and factors such as the personality of public administrators, the masochistic ideology of administrators, and the atmosphere of masochism can complement the occurrence of masochistic behavior of administrators.
