Using sample power method, 410 members of non-governmental organizations of Yasouj city were selected as a sample using a multi-stage cluster sampling method along with simple randomness. Data was collected using a questionnaire. To determine the validity of the questionnaire, content and construct validity were used, and Cronbach's alpha method was conducted to determine reliability. The results showed that all dimensions of the development of public participation had a significant effect on the feeling of security (P < 0.01). The variables of social, cultural, political, religious and health participation were able to predict 21.8%, 29.3%, 39.6%, 23.3% and 9.4% of the variance of citizens' sense of security, respectively. According to beta coefficients, political participation contributed the most in explaining citizens' sense of security. Further, the results showed that public participation has been able to predict 23.5, 30.9, 38.6 and 41.2 percent of the variance of the variables of financial, life, emotional and occupational security, respectively. According to the beta coefficients, among the dimensions of public participation, political participation contributed the most in explaining the feeling of financial, life and job security of citizens. Cultural participation played a role in explaining the feeling of financial security of citizens as much as the development of political participation. And finally, the variable of religious participation had the greatest prediction to the emotional security of citizens.

Introduction Participation is a kind of belief and a prerequisite for any successful project or program aimed at improving people’s lives and fostering social development. Many scholars and social science experts have identified political participation as one of the elements of development, considering the comprehensive political involvement of the people to be synonymous with development; hence, political participation is a significant parameter in most national and international planning efforts. This study suggests that both the motivation and capacity for political participation stem from fundamental non-political institutions that shape individuals’ lives. Given the crucial and fundamental role of the economy in human life and in shaping individuals’ behaviors—particularly their political behavior—this research examines the impact of economic factors on the political participation of individuals aged 25 and over in the city of Esfarayen. The goal is to use the results of this study to devise strategies that deepen the spirit of political participation among members of society, thereby creating the necessary conditions for this involvement that contribute to the development, progress, and stability of the community. According to theoretical perspectives, economic conditions and individuals’ class positions can influence their participation levels. Therefore, there is a meaningful relationship between an individual's economic status and political participation. Numerous studies have been conducted regarding the relationship between political participation and socioeconomic status. The area of this study is the city of Esfarayen, located in North Khorasan, which presents a new case in the body of existing research.Methodology Considering the objectives of the research, its general approach is quantitative, and its method is survey-based. A questionnaire technique was employed for data collection. The validity of the questionnaire was established through content validity with the assistance of expert opinions. For this purpose, the questionnaire was reviewed by several professors, and adjustments were made based on the insights provided by specialists. To determine the reliability of the questionnaire, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was utilized. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the political participation variable with 18 items was 0.716, and for the socioeconomic status variable with 12 items—encompassing education level, job title, living conditions, housing price, car price, average monthly family income, father’s education level, mother’s education level, father’s occupation, mother’s occupation, average monthly family expenses, and residential area—it was 0.725. The statistical population consists of all individuals over 25 years old residing in the city of Esfarayen, totaling 59,490 according to the latest population and housing census in 2016. Based on Cochran’s formula, a sample size of 382 was derived for this study. To ensure generalizability, 400 questionnaires were distributed, of which 17 were invalid, leaving 383 questionnaires available for analysis. FindingsThe descriptive results of the present study indicate the following: In the background variables of the research, 45% of the sample studied are male and 55% are female. The average age of the respondents is 35.54 years. The most frequently reported age among the respondents is 28 years. The highest frequency of respondents (65.5%) falls within the age range of 25 to 37 years. 70.5% of the sample studied are married, and 29.5% are single. In terms of education, only 1% of the respondents are illiterate, 5% have reading and writing skills, 11% have less than a diploma, 42% have a diploma or associate's degree, 32.9% hold a bachelor's degree, and 8.1% have a master's degree or higher. More than half of the sample (63.4%) are employed, while 36.6% are unemployed. Among the 63.4% who are employed, 29.5% have medium to high-status jobs, 26.1% have medium to low-status jobs, 5.5% have high-status jobs, 2.3% have very high-status jobs, and 0.8% have low-status jobs. Regarding the economic status of the research sample, 19.3% are in the upper class, 28.7% in the middle class, and 52% in the lower class. Therefore, it can be concluded that more than half of the research sample is economically classified in the lower class. To examine the assumption of normality of the research variables and the collected data, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was utilized along with SPSS (version 23).  Discussion and Conclusion In the present study, a total of 383 citizens over the age of 25 in Esfarayen were examined using Cochran's formula based on stratified sampling. The constructed questionnaire, consisting of 23 questions, assessed political participation and the economic factors affecting it in the county of Esfarayen. Political participation was examined in three dimensions: formal political participation, informal political participation, and protest participation, with a total political participation index created from these dimensions. The questions were formulated based on the theoretical framework and existing research findings. The validity of the questionnaire was measured through content validity, and the reliability of the questionnaire was evaluated using Cronbach's alpha. The Cronbach’s alpha for the independent variables and also the dependent variable, where applicable, was obtained to be above 0.7, indicating a high correlation among the questions. The data were processed using SPSS.

The present research to answer the questions; why and how the rate of increase / tendency of students political participation in the affirmative paradigm and in the field of insight of political sociology, with a quantitative approach and a survey method in the statistical population of Islamic Azad University students with a sample size of 380 people / students, has been done and organized. The sampling method was proportional sampling (women and men), quotas (universities) and clusters (universities and educational groups), which data was collected with researcher's questionnaire tool in the form of 50 items and self- completed questionnaires. The reliability and validity of the collection tool and data have been done and calculated in an expert manner and with the Alpha Cronbach test (88%). Research findings show that; the average age of the students is 24 years, 52% of them are male, 91% of them are single,89% of them are studying in associate and bachelor degrees and 37% of them are studying in humanities. The average level of desire for political participation of students is 1/6, their level of confidence (political confidence and self- confidence) is 1/4 their level of sociability is 1/8 and their sense of security is 2 out of 5.According to the results of the statistical test (correlation, T and F, regression analysis and analysis of path coefficients), there is a significant relationship between the explanatory variables(levels of political socialization, sense of security and trust) with the explained variable, and the independent variable, and the independent variables directly/ indirectly determine 82 the percentage of variance the level of political participation of students. therefore in order to pass theoretical propositions and political findings regarding to the students political participation to public policy-making in the mentioned field, strategic policies that is based on the findings of this present article should be compiled and applied.

The concept of “political participation” includes a group of new strategies, concepts, ideas, and organizations that meet social needs. On the other hand, social networks play a very effective role in promoting or reducing its indicators because the extent of the impact of social networks on rural spaces presents a different and diverse picture. The present study tried to examine the aspect of political participation of residents in the rural areas under study. The research was applied in terms of the objective and in terms of the possibility of controlling variables, it was quasi-experimental, as due to the post-event nature of the research, it is not possible to control the variables completely. In this research, by studying the theoretical literature and past research, the variables and dimensions of the research were determined in three general dimensions: electoral attitude, being influenced by users, and electoral behavior the interpretation of which was considered in the generality of political participation in the rural areas of Malekan County. The results indicate that the most important criterion of electoral attitude and the least important criterion of electoral behavior play a role in explaining and predicting the dependent variable (political participation). The research highlights the importance of social networks in increasing their effects and improving political participation criteria in the rural areas studied

The objective of this research was to outline a desirable political culture model for the utilization of new media users in Iran. The study field comprises professors, specialists, and scholars in political science, communication science (political communication), as well as political sociology, who were selected through the snowball method. For data collection and research information, three methods were employed: systematic review of subject-related texts and literature, exploratory interviews, and a researcher-developed questionnaire. Additionally, the Delphi panel was implemented across three distinct rounds. Through the study findings, the prominent components of a desirable political culture were identified, including political trust, political justice, political participation, media and political literacy, collectivism, the rule of law, ethics, a positive stance towards democracy, as well as tolerance and tolerance. These essential elements have been incorporated into a comprehensive four-dimensional model, which integrates the dimensions of structure/context, attitudes/input, normative/value, and behavior/output. The ideal model of political culture presented in this study encompassed four dimensions: 10 essential components and 94 fundamental indicators. Initially, social networks served as a means for individuals to connect with each other, but nowadays they hold substantial influence across various facets, including political culture. At present, many people spend a significant portion of their time on the internet, and this does not merely imply that they simply use the internet, but they also receive a substantial portion of their news via social media platforms. Within the realm of virtual society, users replicate the customs and traditions of ordinary life in the form of virtual culture in tandem with actual society. This parallel cultural existence materializes within the framework of the reconceptualization of the emerging social configuration, consequently instigating alterations and evolution in the value system, identities, and social connections of individuals. It is incontrovertible that the ramifications of social actors who assume responsibility for producing, selecting, and disseminating content have far-reaching implications for society. It is imperative to recognize, investigate, and analyze these consequences, as failure to do so can engender irreversible social, political, and cultural consequences upon society. The foremost accomplishment of this study is the identification of two novel components within political culture, specifically tailored to the realm of new media. The components of criticizing/destroying the political system and non-participatory/objectional orientation fundamentally delineate the disparity in political culture between the real and virtual realms. The distinctive aspects of contemporary media appear to accentuate these components within the political culture of Iranian users. It is plausible to assert that new media have instituted a novel form of public sphere.

The proper politicization of mass media leads to the increase of political participation by creating competition between classes, parties and groups. In today's world, the motivation, interest and intensity of citizens' desire for political activity (election participation) is influenced by media policy, the type and method of using media agents. The main purpose of this research is to study the effect of media factors on the level of political participation. The research method is quantitative meta-analysis (CMA2), the unit of analysis is articles from the scientific sources of Normagz and Mag Iran in the period 2005-2023. 40 scientific documents were collected as a statistical population and 26 scientific documents (sample size) were collected by deliberate-non-probability method according to the evaluation of the article according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and the results were analyzed with Cohen's d and Fisher's f tests. The results show that media factors have a significant effect on the political participation of citizens and the value of its influence coefficient is equal to 0.220 (positive and direct relationship). Also, the amount of use of domestic media (0.234), consumption of mass media (0.167) and media literacy (0.211) have a positive effect, and the amount of use of foreign media (-0.258), membership in virtual space (215/) -0) and membership in social networks (-0.147) had a negative effect on political participation.

Due to the importance of finding the issue of political participation and its growing trend in countries and considering the impact of social gaps on electoral political participation, studies have been conducted on this issue since the past decades; But studies around a common question often have inconsistent results. According to numerous books and articles and the use of different research methods in the field of political-election participation and the impact of social divisions on it, a meta-composite view of this issue has not been done so far. The field of effective factors on political participation in the presidential election in Iran is to discover a coherent result from their research fields. The present research method is of a meta-composite type and with a comprehensive and general view of the scientific-research studies conducted in the period of 1376-1400 in the field of the impact of social-economic gaps on political participation in Iran's elections. The sample size of 35 articles has been selected according to the quality of the article, scientific-research and its relationship with the issue of social gaps and political participation in the presidential election. The results obtained in this research show that the socio-economic indicators (status, social base, social position, social class, social trust, education, job, income, getting a better life, economic issues, middle class, social pressure, center, periphery, fair distribution of wealth, class distance and deprivation) with a frequency of 15 have had a greater impact on electoral political participation than other social divisions.

In the modern age known as the new media age, the media have undertaken one of the most important bases of informative and communicative construction. The new media have created new aspects in relations among humans as well as governments, and societies get more political as the media expand more. So it’s not amazing to reexamine the authority coordinates in the presence of the significant phenomenon of the modern age, ie(that is to say) the new on aspect of authority, manifestation in various levels. This research aims to investigation the influence of Telegram and political participation of women in Tehran in low level. The used conceptual model is a combination of three, media theories: including cultivation theory(Gerbner),public sphere theory(Habermas) and political participation’s indicators theory(rush). The achieve results confirm the positive effect if Telegram on political participation of women users in low level in Tehran.

Elections are a clear manifestation of democracy and have tangible political effects. Therefore, financial assistance to win the elections can have the aspect of political investment. The financial supervision law in our country prohibits receiving financial aid from unconventional sources. In France, there is no complete ban on receiving these aids and depending on the political history and reputation of the candidates, the ceiling of the source of each aid is different. This research was carried out by analytical-descriptive method with the aim of comparison between two models and it also examined the applicability of the French model in the country. It was concluded that the current model of financial supervision in the country has an Islamic aspect in terms of supporting the rule of "negation by a whisker", but its implementation guarantees are not well taken into account. In France, despite the complexity of the regulatory model, there are better guarantees for the predicted non-violation and the efficiency of this model is better. However, the existing regulatory mechanism in France is a guarantee for the implementation of this model, which cannot be implemented in our country. Therefore, in the current situation, the implementation of this model in the country is not recommended and its background is the reform of the infrastructure and then the relevant law.

Today, political participation, which means a set of citizens' activities to influence the government and support the political system, is of great importance for all types of political systems. One of the types of political participation is participation in elections. Various researches have shown that a set of social, economic and psychological factors influence people's electoral behavior. The current research has categorized the set of factors affecting the political participation of individuals in the sociological field, and with this support, its goal is to investigate the social factors affecting the political participation of the citizens of Ilam province in the 11th parliamentary election. The current research method is descriptive-survey and the data collection tool is also a questionnaire. The statistical population of the current research is citizens eligible to vote in Ilam province, 384 people have been selected by cluster method through Cochran's formula. For this purpose, Ilam province is divided into four clusters (North, South, East and West). For data analysis and statistical inference, regression test was used with the help of SPSS software. The findings show that there is a positive and significant relationship between social factors such as social networks, social trust and social cohesion, gaining respect and political participation, while social awareness, social participation and benefit acquisition have not affected the increase of people's participation in the elections of the Islamic Council in Ilam province.

Social trust and political participation are key factors for enhancing social cohesion and promoting the desirability of social changes, as they facilitate civic participation and collective action. This research explores the impact of social trust on the political participation of young people in Yazd city, Iran. The theoretical framework of the research is based on the theories of Paul Elzarsfland, Habermas, Inglehart, Coleman and Lipset. 

Methods and Data: 

This research uses a survey method to collect data from 400 young people in Yazd city, Iran. The research conducted among men and women aged 18 to 35 who have lived in Yazd city for at least five years and have participated in the elections at least once. 

The research measures trust in different domains including interpersonal relationships, political actors and institutions, educational institutions, service institutions, economic institutions, and religious institutions. The research finds that only interpersonal trust and trust in educational institutions moderately to highly correlate with political participation. The study also finds that only past electoral participation is moderately to high among the respondents. Our analysis reveals a significant relationship between the independent variables (types of trust) and the dependent variable (level of political participation). 

The research reveals that trust in the political system is the most important factor that influences political participation, while education is the least important factor. This result suggests that trust in the political system is a key determinant of political engagement among young people. 

Key Message: 

This research demonstrates that political participation and social trust are positively related. This means that any factor that increases trust in society will also increase political participation.

The purpose of the present study was to measure the relationship between the social capital components and political trust of West Azerbaijan citizens through a survey method among all citizens over the age of 18 in West Azerbaijan province (2,284,359 cases). The sample size was determined to be 384 through the random sampling method using a questionnaire. The findings of Cronbach's alpha validity coefficient showed that all items of the variables had the necessary and desirable reliability. The results of Pearson's coefficient test indicated a significant correlation between all variables. Based on the multiple regression test, political trust in West Azerbaijan province depends on an increase in political participation (16%), an increase in forgiveness and volunteer spirit (18%), an increase in religious participation (15%), and an increase in justice in civil participation (35%). Therefore, increasing the level of social capital among the citizens will enhance their political trust resulting in the expansion of people’s civil and social participation.

The issue of women's political participation in developing countries is a complex phenomenon and is related to the dynamics and development of political systems. The purpose of this research is to understand and analyze the situation of women's political participation, which was done with qualitative methodology and Grounded theory method. For this purpose, in-depth and semi-structured interviews were conducted with seventeen women living in Tehran who were selected by purposeful sampling and a combination of snowball strategies and maximum changes. After data analysis, 85 primary codes, seven core categories, and one core category were extracted through the data coding system: Causal conditions (economic issues and challenges, egalitarian governance), background conditions (unequal political structure and patriarchal challenges), intervening conditions (personal-spiritual factors), strategies (merits and creating a platform for prosperity), and consequences (active political activism of women and rejection of passivity) political). Also, "women's political participation; Meaningful and multifaceted action" was counted as the core category and finally the paradigm model extracted from the data was established. The findings indicate that women are active actors and activists in political participation and take actions based on political issues; An action of the type of participation that identifies the obstacles and facilitating factors can open the way for their active political participation as effective citizens in the field of politics.

Studying the role of the media in the voter turnout: Systematic Review of relevant articles between 2011-2019Zahra Ojagh[1]  AbstractThis study is a systematic review of researches in the field of voter turnout and wants to identify the influencing factors on Iranian voter turnout. Four scientific databases were searched using keywords and 125 appropriate articles were recognized. Systematic review was done by specific protocol. The findings from systematic review suggest that research in this area has dealt with three categories that are media consumption, political marketing and advertising. The results show that there is a positive relationship between mass media consumption and political participation in general, but the form or type of media consumption affects it. Most studies focused on social media show that the relationship between social media use and political participation is positive, but the relationship between social media consumption and voter turnout is negative. The positive relationship between the use of newspapers, radio and television with political participation has been reported, but the effect of watching satellite programs on political participation has been assessed as more negative. According to these studies, the use of traditional political marketing tools and critical view to the current situation will increase voter turnout. The results also show the candidates' disregard for socially disadvantaged groups and development programs. Keywords: Political participation, Voter turnout, Media, Systematic review   IntroductionElections are the most obvious and measurable type of people's participation in the political arena. Since the 1990s, on the one hand, the number of countries that use direct parliamentary elections has increased, and on the other hand, the participation in elections has decreased in all countries (Solijonov, 2016). This issue has raised concerns about the role of the people and their will in the legislation and control of the rulers. However, it should be noted that the decrease in voter turnout does not necessarily mean that people become neutral and passive towards politics, and in many cases it happens quite consciously and as a protest or resistance movement. Iran is one of the countries that had more than 50% participation in most of the elections before 2018, and increasing the voter turnout has always been important for the officials of this country. In the parliamentary elections of 2018, which was said to be the lowest electoral participation of Iranians, the participation rate was 42.57 percent. It seems that the pattern of voter turnout is the same in most countries. However, various factors affect the voter turnout, which are contextual and appear in different ways in different societies. Identifying these factors in Iran can improve our understanding of the factors affecting voter turnout and planning for it. One of these factors is the media. PurposeNarrative review as a valuable method for research that can provide an image of the state of research trend in a specific field and summarize its findings for decision-making and policy-making, has attracted the attention of researchers in various fields. It is specially placed for medical and social sciences. However, so far, the studies on elections and political participation have not been summarized and integrated with a review method either in a narrative or systematic way. Considering the multitude of Iranian studies about participation in elections and the factors influencing the voter turnout, and considering its importance, identifying the influencing factors on participation in different regions and collecting them can identify both the characteristics of these findings and the lack of studies in this field. The results of this study can be used in policy making and election management. Therefore, the purpose of this study, focusing on media and communication, is to do narrative review the published papers about voter turnout in Iran. This paper is looking for an answer to the question of how much and how the media shape the voting behavior of Iranians.  MethodologyIn this project, we employed a qualitative research method, and narrative review technique was used to collect data. The statistical population of this study, which was conducted in 2018, includes all papers related to the subject, which were conducted with different qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods. To select samples, papers were obtained from four databases i.e., google scholar, SID, Noormags.ir, ensani.ir, using four keywords, i.e. voter turnout, voting behavior, elections, and electoral behavior. The focus is on Persian articles and the used keywords are also written in Persian. Considering that political participation is influenced by background conditions, the focus of this study is on recent studies that have been conducted in the eight-year period (2010-2018). overally 460 papers identified in these databases were matched with each other, so, 168 paper were identified without overlap. Their abstracts were studied and finally, 33 papers related to the research topic were identified, which were published between 2011 and 2017 .FindingsThe findings of the study show that the quantitative approach and the survey method are dominant methodologically,and students, professors and employees of Isfahan University have been studied more. The research studies carried out on voter turnout with a focus on identifying the role of the media on the voting behavior of Iranians can be classified into three general categories:Media consumption: many papers have addressed this issue and have emphasized more on virtual space, the Internet and internet-based media, and less on satellite and much less on traditional media such as television and newspapers.Advertisement: This group of studies have paid more attention to the content of advertising posters.Political marketing: In the last eight years, it has been the focus of Iranian researchers and academics and they are trying to study the concept, strategy and tools of traditional and modern political marketing. Most of these studies are looking for solutions and strategies to present to selected candidates. ConclusionThe results of this study show that one of the expectations in the days close to the elections is that the media should intervene and invite the people to participate as much as possible. This approach comes from the belief in the view of the maximum effect of the media, which assumes a one-way and single-factor relationship between the media and behavior change. The prevalence of this reductionist view in Iranian society is such that, other social and political behaviors of Iranians are also attributed to the media, especially virtual space and satellite. However, the multitude of variables involved in issues such as voter turnout, the amount of voting and its direction is such that, it makes it impossible to establish any definite cause and effect link between the media, including new media, and political action and behavior. The results of the narrative review show that that radio, television and newspapers definitely have a positive effect on political participation, but one cannot have such a definite opinion about other media. It can be said that the content of the media is a determinant variable. In the perspective of how to create and distort facts, traditional media have critical role, and new media are important in the perspective of producing, distributing and spreading rumors which can make problems and issues for elections. Also, they have an effect on the type of participation and development of the public sphere. Other variables such as the feeling of effectiveness, the age of the audience, their social class, the competitiveness of the elections and people's feelings play important role in this regard. In the perspective of marketing, the results indicate the effectiveness of traditional marketing tools, the candidate's communication ability, criticism of the status quo, and emphasis on pole makers, which increase voter turnout. Integrated Political Marketing Communications and branding of electoral candidate have an increasing effect on voter turnout. Studies focusing on advertising posters also show the indifference of election candidates to marginalized social groups. The content of these posters emphasize welfare and are not in line with development. This review shows that the studies conducted regarding the role of the media in increasing or decreasing voter turnout in the last 10 years are not very much. So, on average, 3 researches related to this field have been published yearly. Considering the studies that have been done in the field of political marketing and advertising, as well as the few cities that have been studied; It can be said that the field of political communication with an emphasis on elections requires research focus and conducting more studies.NoveltyNo previous research has been done regarding the narrative review of the relation between media consumption and voter turnout to present an overall image in this field. The advantage of this study is that by using the methodological approach of narrative review, it has tried to uncover the tree mainstream subjects of research in this field that are media consumption, political advertisement and, political marketing.

Political participation is a purposeful action to influence the decisions and actions of political elites in the administration of society, which is done by the people. Due to the fact that educators are one of the most influential groups in the process of political participation and consequently effective in the all-round development of the society, therefore, it is very important to know their attitudes, orientations and satisfaction with the performance of political elites. The purpose of this research is to sociologically study the level of political participation of educators, investigate the performance of the ruling political elite and analyze the variables that have been effective on the level of political participation of educators in Ardabil province. The statistical population of the research is 16,300 people of Ardabil Province and its sample size was estimated to be 380 people according to Cochran's formula. In this research, simple and stratified random sampling methods were used. The theoretical framework of the research was adapted from the theories of Huntington, Nelson and Lipsett. Cronbach's alpha test was used for the reliability of the questionnaire and face validity was used for its validity. The current research was conducted using a survey method and its hypotheses were tested using the Pearson correlation coefficient test and to analyze the information and predict the dependent variable from the independent variables of linear regression and to measure the relationships of the variables in a causal model of the method. Statistics based on multivariate regression analysis or path analysis using spss software was used. The results of the research showed that the political participation of the studied educators is at a low level, so that 61.20 percent of the respondents have low political participation. between the variables of transparency of officials' performance (r=0.71) with (sig=0.000), accountability of officials (r=0.65) with (sig=0.000), preference of national interests over individual interests by officials  )r=0.64) with (sig=0.000), rulers' fight against corruption (r=0.58) with (sig=0.000), political trust of educators (r=0.53) with (sig =0.000), actions of rulers to improve social services (r = 0.56) with (sig = 0.000) and actions of political elites for political development (r = 0.59) with (sig = 0.000) There is a significant relationship between the political participation of educators and the adjusted coefficient of determination)   (can explain 37% of the variance of the political participation of educators.
