Family is the most important social institution in society, serving as the core unit for providing emotional, spiritual, and safe environments for living, interaction, support, and caregiving among its members in the face of various challenges. Amid ongoing family transformations in Iran, behaviors, desires, and intentions regarding childbirth have also undergone significant changes. Studies on the level and trends of fertility in Iran indicate a sharp decline over recent decades. Changes in fertility components can be attributed to shifts in individuals’ cognitive, attitudinal, and psychological structures. Therefore, culture, along with its elements and structures, significantly influences the fertility process in Iran (Shafaed-Din & Cheraghi Kootiani, 2014). Culture affects human behavior and shapes fertility behavior through three pathways: values and attitudes, cultural norms and laws, and cultural symbols.This article, based on Koeun’s framework-which conceptualizes culture as comprising three components (cognitive, organizational, and symbolic)-examines the influence of these dimensions on women’s fertility behavior. Drawing on expert opinions, particularly those with research experience in this field, can be highly beneficial in identifying and prioritizing cultural factors that influence fertility, especially in the current context where increasing fertility is a pressing concern for Iranian society. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), developed by Thomas L. Saaty in 1980, is a robust and flexible decision-making technique used to evaluate complex issues across multiple levels. It integrates both objective and subjective assessments through pairwise comparisons and helps analysts organize key aspects of a problem within a hierarchical structure.In this study, the opinions of 20 experts were utilized, most of whom were university professors and scholars specializing in anthropology, sociology, and demography. In addition, experts with specific knowledge of fertility and those involved in policy-making were consulted. To identify and determine the indicators, both a literature review and expert insights were employed. Furthermore, to refine these indicators, feedback from ten additional experts was incorporated. After finalizing the indicators, a pairwise comparison questionnaire was developed.This study investigates the impact of the three cultural dimensions on women’s fertility behavior. To achieve this goal, and based on expert input, an appropriate questionnaire was designed and interviews were conducted with knowledgeable individuals. The questionnaire was developed based on the literature and a theoretical framework that considered various theories explaining the cultural dimensions (cognitive, organizational, and symbolic) and their relation to fertility. The questionnaire included four main indicators-values and attitudes, cultural norms and laws, cultural symbols, and ethnicity-and 16 sub-indicators. It was completed by 20 academic experts and policymakers involved in demographic issues.The results, analyzed using Expert Choice software (version 11), revealed that the “values and attitudes” indicator had the highest weight (0.309), making it the most influential cultural factor affecting fertility behavior. It was followed by “cultural symbols” (0.304), “norms and laws” (0.233), and “ethnicity” (0.155). Based on these results, key strategies are proposed to curb the steep decline in fertility and promote higher fertility rates in Iran. The primary focus should be on transforming societal values and attitudes, particularly concerning gender role division and the promotion of egalitarian perspectives, which ranked highest among cultural factors.Although women’s employment and education levels have risen, they do not constitute the primary barriers to fertility, as women are actively participating in both spheres. However, the conflict between family responsibilities and professional duties, the pressure of multiple roles, cultural expectations, and the lack of supportive policies must all be addressed. It is recommended that independent governmental agencies be established to implement measures such as providing paternity leave during childbirth, offering affordable and trusted childcare facilities at workplaces, and granting additional wages or benefits for domestic helpers to assist with household tasks at least once a month.Changing cultural attitudes takes time, but media can play a pivotal role in normalizing gender equality and shared household responsibilities. Ultimately, effective fertility-promoting policies should be comprehensive, integrating both economic and cultural dimensions.

Climate change, as one of the outstanding challenges of the current century, has undergone fundamental changes in human migration patterns with its profound effects on ecosystems and human societies, especially in arid and semi-arid regions such as Iran. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of these changes on the migration patterns of Semnan residents. This study, using a qualitative approach and in-depth interview method, collected data from 15 residents of this city who had direct or indirect experience of migration, and then analyzed this data using thematic analysis method. The findings indicate that reduced access to water resources as one of the most important consequences of climate change, along with a significant decline in agricultural production and increased environmental concerns, are among the key factors in residents' decision to migrate. Finally, as an initial step, this research paves the way for broader research in other arid regions of Iran to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the relationship between climate change and human migration.

This study aims to examine the organizational factors influencing work-family conflict among firefighters in Kerman. The research employes a descriptive and correlational method. The statistical population includes all firefighters working in the Kerman Fire Department in 2023, from which 141 individuals were randomly selected. A structured questionnaire has been used to assess organizational factors and work-family conflict. The data collected is analyzed using SPSS software. The findings reveal a direct and significant relationship between the sense of role importance and work-family conflict. Additionally, there is an inverse and significant relationship between organizational commitment, job satisfaction, organizational justice, and work-family conflict among firefighters. The most significant predictor of work-family conflict is the perceived importance of the employees' roles. These results can serve as a model for organizational leaders in Kerman, providing guidance on how to create a more supportive environment to reduce work-family conflict among employees.

It is feasible to investigate oral culture and proverbs in order to comprehend the elements of Iranian men's masculinity as a field of men's studies. Men's studies is a new, emerging discipline within the fields of sociology and gender studies that has made significant strides in the understanding of men, including their behavior, expectations, attributions, and inherent identity. It is crucial to analyze proverbs because they serve as a conduit between the researcher and popular culture, enabling the researcher to gain a comprehensive understanding of the societal members' perspectives. The content analysis method was employed to conduct this qualitative research. 803 proverbs were selected and analyzed in this study, with the following keywords: man, spouse, son-in-law, uncle, father, and son. The analysis of the content of proverbs resulted in seventy-eight sub-components out of ten general components. The centrality of the general component “Masculinity as a contradictory phenomenon” was ultimately determined. The paradoxical issue of masculinity originates from an unclear situation that means that it is unclear when men have been characterized by these traits and whether there has ever been a time when men exhibited distinct masculinity behavior. The second facet of masculinity as a contradictory entity is the opposition and conflict with women. It is the site of investigation into the reasons and processes that result in a divergent and contradictory understanding, ultimately resulting in an opposition. Consequently, numerous evidences have been presented

Criticism of subject education in educational systems is important from two aspects; Both from the genealogical aspect and the historical evolution of the subject, and from the perspective of the ruling concepts of anthropology and the understanding of internal and external contradictions and inconsistencies in presenting this desirable image, which can in practice carry a hidden subject or subjects that even Sometimes it takes a different path with a desirable and explicit subject.Regarding the ideal subject and human being and the style of Iran’s educational system, which is specified in the upper level documents, it should be said that these documents seek to educate a faithful human being who, while having a religious orientation throughout his life, considers his desired goal to be close to God, serving God and living a good life, but, many academic, moral issues, social damages and indifference to religious and national values ​​that have made the society’s mind pessimistic about the outputs and performance of the education system, show that this system has not been able to find students in To guide a clear and consistent image of how to live and relate to oneself, society, culture and history, religion, ethics, modernity, etc.In finding the root of the above problem and reviewing and criticizing the upper level documents of the educational system, it seems that these documents, which came out after solving the problem of “ being imported” of the educational system, have some ambiguities and internal contradictions in compiling and including the requirements related to human beings, which causes confusion And increases his indecision.The purpose of the current research is to review and criticize the upstream documents and find points in them that can generate ambiguities and contradictions that often cause the subject’s confusion and have angles and differences with the subject’s inherent capabilities, and therefore, will figure reactions contrary to the expectations of the educational system in the subject Therefore, we seek to answer this question: “What kind of subject is supported by the documents and discourse governing Iran’s education system and which criticism is there on this subject?”

The current research has been conducted with a qualitative design and its data collection is done by referring to educational documents such as the theoretical foundations of the fundamental transformation of education, the fundamental transformation of education, the national curriculum document as the main documents, as well as other contents and researches in Access to the state of the human education system or its desired subject and its criticism has been obtained.The main approach of the research is a critical approach and using the method of negative or internal criticism as well as external criticism, and in this regard, the inductive qualitative content analysis method has also been used.

The findings of the present research lead us to the issue that although the desirable person of the educational system and its explicit image in the documents is a “faithful subject” and transcendent, but due to the inadequacies, contradictions and inconsistencies in the text of the documents, the outcome and output It will not be a believing subject (with all its belongings), but a human being who has a kind of “suspension” or in other words a “suspended subject”.The suspension of a subject who is surrounded by ambiguities and the lack of clarity and explanation about himself, the current realities of life and the feeling of non-self in the school discourse, and a child who is not the target of documents and therefore becomes a means of realizing ideology and does not have a full existence.This suspense and ambiguity is the result of the attitude and performance of the educational system, and although a small group of people, due to the favorable environment of religious life and the internalization of teachings and the adaptation of religious and mystical experiences to what they have reached their rational understanding, can manifest the subject and Be religious, but a large number of people, as a result of the continuation of the suspension, engage in active and passive resistance, and both forms of resistance are forms of the forced reaction of the subject due to his inherent agency and his desire to act and rebel against limitations and excesses.

In the digital age, smart and technological solutions can be helpful for the security of tourists. In this field, a road map is needed. Thus, the aim of the present research is to identify the indicators of smartening police security services to domestic and foreign tourists in Iran.

In terms of its objectives the present study is of an applied research type, and in terms of type and data collection it is in the field of qualitative research. The content analysis in qualitative approach was used in the form of semi-structured interviews with experts; three-stage open, central and selective coding was done with the help of MAXQdA software. The statistical population of the research is experts who are knowledgeable about the subject and the region under study. Based on judgmental and snowball method, the statistical sample was identified. Data saturation was reached in the 25th sample.

In the current research, a total of 73 indicators and sub-indicators were identified. Some of the most important indicators of smartening are: integration and unifying new technologies, improving the capabilities of employees, taking advantage of people's participation, monitoring and smart and quick access to tourists, flexibility and variability in the way of providing smart services according to the development, easy and quick access of tourists to police security and services are the personalization of police security services according to the type of tourist and the provision of smart financial security for tourists.

The results of the research indicate that in order to make police security services smarter for tourists, the security forces should improve their performance in line with the findings of the research. In this context, it is important to set up a smart system for notifying tourists of safety and security services, to use and set up smart monitoring and control systems, to set up a smart tourism police, and to make the country's international airports smart.

The Islamic Revolution of Iran, led by Imam Khomeini and later by Ayatollah Khamenei, brought about fundamental changes in the cultural orientation of Muslim nations, paving the way for the formation of a modern Islamic civilization. This study aims to examine the role of the Islamic Revolution in guiding Muslim nations toward the revival of modern Islamic civilization through cultural transformation. The research methodology is documentary and library-based, employing a descriptive-analytical approach. With the emergence of Islam, a robust and grand foundation of culture and civilization was established, with contributions from various nations and ethnic groups. In this regard, the cultural and political perspectives of the Supreme Leader have played a crucial role in dismantling Western ideologies, reshaping the cultural approach of Muslim nations, and fostering the formation of modern Islamic civilization. This influence has been evident in the Arab Spring and the decline of Western ideologies among Muslim communities. Therefore, analyzing how this role has been fulfilled serves as a step forward in elucidating strategies for Muslims to reclaim their rightful position in the global order.

Urbanization in Iran has experienced rapid and accelerated growth, which has led to numerous problems and challenges for Iranian cities. Given the significance of informal settlements and their impact on various levels of society, this study aims to conduct a meta-analysis of research articles on the consequences of informal settlements in urban areas during the period 1991–2022. The research method is applied in terms of purpose, quantitative in terms of data collection, and employs a descriptive meta-analysis approach. The statistical population includes all registered studies in national research and information databases that have addressed the issue of informal settlements. A systematic review of journal databases was conducted to identify relevant studies. Out of 250 initially selected articles, 39 met all the required criteria based on the established protocol. These were then analyzed using the CMA2 software. The findings indicate that the consequences of informal settlements include physical and non-physical domestic violence, social deviance, child labor and street children, and a general sense of social insecurity. Failure to address the root causes of these issues can lead to their re-emergence in different forms, ultimately threatening sustainable urban development from environmental, social, cultural, and economic perspectives.

This research has been conducted with the aim of analyzing the news coverage of Iran's military operations against Israel (‘Operation True Promise’/ ‘Vadeh sadiq’Operation) in three important news websites of Turkey, including Anadolu, Hurriyat and Cumhuriyet. ‘Operation True Promise’ in response to the attack of the Zionist regime (Israel) on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, in the late hours of the 25th and early morning of the April 14, 2024, was reflected as an important event in regional, extra-regional and international media news.Turkish media, due to the importance of this country in the region in terms of economic and political power, neighboring Iran, playing an active role in international and regional issues, cultural commonalities with Iran and economic and political connections with Israel and enjoying media diversity, it has been selected as the statistical population of this research. Using the content analysis method, this research describes, analyzes and compares the categories of news direction, news source, news value, news format, reasons and consequences of ‘Operation True Promise’in these three news websites. Coding instructions were prepared based on the topic and purpose of the research, and based on that, the desired news was extracted and coded. The contents related to ‘Operation True Promise’in Anadolu, Hurriyat and Cumhuriyet news websites from April 13 to April 16 were selected as the statistical population of this research. Based on this, 202 contents related to the research topic were extracted and analyzed. The findings of the research show that "News" style (88.6%) is the most important content presentation format and "Report" and "Article" as other styles used by Turkish media in the subject under investigation. In the analysis of the sources of news published in Turkish media, citing the sources of the Zionist regime with 21.26% are the most important news sources, followed by Iran (17.14%), the United States and NATO member countries (16%). The main reason for the attention of the investigated media in Turkey to the news of the ‘Operation True Promise’was to pay attention to the news values ​​of "confrontation" and "inclusion" with an impact on 88.5% of the investigated contents. One of the important points in the publication of news, reports and articles of the investigated media in Turkey regarding the ‘Operation True Promise’is the direction of the headlines of these media. "Neutral orientation" with 58.5% has been the most important approach, as well as the superiority of "negative orientation" (33%) over positive orientation (8.5%) in the headlines related to this operation. In this regard, the findings of the research confirm that only 17% of Turkish media headlines were published in support of the operation in question, and on the other hand, about 52% did not support the said operation. According to the research findings, although the media outlets studied may have relatively distinct approaches to domestic events in Turkey, they have a similar approach to the foreign event of ‘Operation True Promise’ and a "negative" orientation. By using the word "attack" frequently, they have highlighted three messages for their audiences: "Israel's threats of response against Iran", "a call for restraint by both countries", and "America's support for Israel".

This study investigated the chance of leaving married life using Cox proportional hazards models with random effects, estimating the influence of demographic variables such as age at marriage, gender, place of residence, and province. The analysis is based on marriage and divorce records from the civil registration organization, covering the period from March 21, 2022, to March 20, 2023. A total of 412,918 records were included in the survival analysis, after excluding records with errors or missing data. The results indicated that the likelihood of men leaving married life is 1.54 times that of women, which is significant. Additionally, younger ages at marriage are associated with a higher probability of divorce compared to older ages. Specifically, the chances of leaving married life are 31.3, 11.7, 3.9, and 1.3 times higher, respectively, for the age groups 10-20, 20-30, 30-40, and 40-50 years, compared to those in the 50+ age group. The province variable also significantly affects the duration of marriage. Examining the factors that influence the length of married life provides valuable insights for timely interventions aimed at enhancing marital stability. These findings are relevant for couples, families, psychologists, and social workers at the micro level, as well as for sociologists and policymakers at the macro level.

The study of ethnic differences in childbearing preferences and behaviors has attracted demographers and policy makers, due to its impact on future social and demographic compositions and trends. The aim of this article is to explore ethnic differences in childbearing ideals and behaviors in Iran using data from the National Family Survey (2018). The sample size includes 1302 married women aged 15 to 44, living in urban areas of the country. The results showed that childbearing ideals and behaviors vary significantly among different ethnic groups. Baloch women have the highest number of children ever born, ideal family size, and desire to have (another) child, while Gilak/Mazandarani women have the lowest. Multivariate analysis showed a significant effect of ethnicity on childbearing ideals and behaviors. However, socioeconomic and demographic variables slightly reduced the role of ethnicity, supporting the ethnic/cultural hypothesis. When controlling for other variables, Gilak/Mazandarani women exhibit fewer childbearing preferences and behaviors compared to Persian women. Conversely, Kurdish, Arab, and particularly Baluch women have more childbearing preferences and behaviors. Therefore, ethnicity plays a crucial role in fertility preferences and behaviors. Consequently, it is essential to consider ethnic diversity in population policies and programs when addressing fertility.

Despite its intrinsic importance and its consequences for the health and productivity of people and the socio-economic development of society, time poverty has received little attention in domestic studies and there is no knowledge in this field at the national level. In this study, using the data of three periods of time spent in urban areas of Iran (years 1387-1387, 1393-94, and 1398-99), the Foster, Greer, and Thorbecke (FGT) poverty index was calculated based on the amount of time devoted to occupational (paid) and domestic (non-paid) activities to answer these questions: What is the prevalence of time poverty? To what extent has the prevalence of this phenomenon changed over time? To what extent are gender and age differences observed in this phenomenon? The article's findings indicated that time poverty in the urban areas of Iran is a predominantly male phenomenon, which is not consistent with the situation of other societies based on previous studies. Also, the highest prevalence and time poverty gap was observed in the middle-aged (40-59 years old), which is consistent with the results of past research. The insignificant values of the time poverty gap square index indicated a very low prevalence of severe time poverty in the country's urban areas. The higher prevalence of extreme time poverty among men shows that, in general, work activities have a greater impact on the experience of time poverty than household activities. Future studies can contribute to a deeper understanding of the phenomenon of poverty and evidence-based policies to eradicate it by examining the relationship between economic poverty and time poverty, explaining time poverty using the intersection approach and paying attention to the multidimensionality of its determinants, and comparing the patterns and determinants of this phenomenon in urban and rural areas.

Since its inception, the automobile industry has been widely welcomed and developed all over the world because of its tangible efficiency. This industry has resulted in traffic accidents, which have become one of the most significant social issues worldwide today, resulting in millions of lives being destroyed or injured annually. The rate of traffic accidents and deaths has become an acute social issue in Iran due to the rapid expansion of the automobile industry and roads and streets. Theoretically, traffic accident fatalities are explained by a variety of factors. However, the influence of modern communication technologies, such as the Internet and mobile phones, on traffic accidents and fatalities at a macro level has not been given much attention in Iran. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between the mobile phone and internet technologies and traffic accident fatalities at a macro level from 1991 to 2022.

A time-series method was made use of in this quantitative longitudinal research to examine the relationship between mobile phone and the internet penetration variables and traffic accident fatalities in Iran from 1991-2022. To assess traffic accidents, the index of urban traffic accident deaths per 100,000 populations was employed. In order to measure mobile phone penetration, the number of mobile phone subscribers was utilized as an index. Finally, to measure the internet penetration, the number of internet users was used. The required data were collected from the Statistical Center of Iran (SCI), the Iranian Legal Medicine Organization (ILMO), and the World Bank (WB). To analyze both short-term and long-term relationships, the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model was employed utilizing Microfit software version 5.

According to the research findings, in the long-term relationships, with the increase in the number of mobile phone subscriptions, the number of traffic accident fatalities has significantly increased (Prob.=0.000; T-Ratio=10.4; Coefficient=0.44). Moreover, the findings of the research indicate that the number of traffic accident fatalities has decreased in the long run as a result of the increase in internet penetration rate (Prob. =0.000; T-Ratio=-7.8; Coefficient=0.37).

The present study concludes that modern mobile phone and the internet communication technologies are affecting traffic accident casualties in Iran, which is a significant social issue. However, their effects are not the same. The increase in mobile phone usage has led to an increase in traffic accident casualties, but the increase in internet usage has resulted in a reduction in traffic accident casualties.

The present study aims to model the factors affecting formal and informal sector employment in Iran, taking into account the unique conditions of this market. The research spans the period from 1991 to 2020. In this study, 43 variables influencing formal and informal sector employment were incorporated into a Bayesian averaging model. Results indicate that among the BMA, TVP-DMA, TVP-DMS, BVAR, and OLS models, the BMA model was identified as the most efficient. Based on the BMA model, 11 non-fragile variables affecting formal and informal sector employment were identified. The findings revealed that diverse factors influence employment in both sectors.  For the formal sector, the most impactful variables include education level, service sector value-added, economic growth, structural change index, real wages, consumer price inflation, government current expenditures, privatization, minimum wage, oil revenues, and sanctions. In the informal sector, the business environment index, service sector value-added, business cycles, economic globalization index (KOF), producer price inflation, labor productivity, interest rates, government construction expenditures, oil revenues, and sanctions emerged as the most significant determinants of employment.

Reports and statistics on brain drain from Iran indicate a surge in the tendency of highly skilled individuals to emigrate following the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the World Bank, Iran loses an estimated $50 billion annually due to this phenomenon. This study aims to identify the root causes of brain drain and propose solutions to mitigate its impact. Employing a meta-synthesis approach, the researchers analyzed relevant Persian and English research articles published between the start of the pandemic (2019) and March of 2024. The extracted factors contributing to brain drain and corresponding countermeasures were categorized into six themes: economic factors, social and cultural factors, political factors, educational system issues, urban infrastructure issues, and attractiveness of destination countries. The findings of this meta-synthesis reveal two crucial points: 1) Social scientists have made minimal contributions to research in this critical social domain, especially during the post-COVID-19 era. 2) The pandemic, which has profoundly impacted global social life, has further intensified the brain drain phenomenon. Furthermore, a comparison of the meta-synthesis results with previous meta-analyses reveals that additional factors, including intensifying financial instability, economic deterioration, country risk, human development, and globalization, have emerged as key drivers of brain drain from Iran.

Urban management has serious challenges because of unsuitable conditions in informal settlements, including unconventional housing, limited infrastructure, high vulnerability to natural hazards, environmental and health issues, high population density, social problems, lack of life facilities and services, informal employment and illegal possession of the land. Also, the deprivation of these areas from Public facilities makes them the focus of urban problems related to sustainable development. Evacuation and destruction of these areas is one of the common solutions facing city managers. This article examines the impact of forced evacuations and suggests alternative solutions with a documentary method. The results show that secure tenure and on-site upgrading,land Sharing and resettlement are eviction alternative. Surveys show that the solution of urban policy makers for urban poor communites in Iran has been in the form of resettlement and Secure tenure and on-site upgrading.

One of the significant socio-political ruptures in Afghanistan occurred when the Taliban seized power for the second time. This development disrupted the country's political structure and social order, plunging society into chaos. Among the various social groups, military personnel experienced particularly challenging conditions, as they found themselves facing those they had fought against for years, leaving them with no choice but to flee. This article aims to explore the narratives of this group's shifting social status and position. The research field includes 20 military individuals who fled to Iran following the collapse of the Afghan government. The study employs thematic analysis. Key theoretical concepts include stratification, status, status anxiety, habitus, and social trajectory. The overarching themes identified in the study are: the nightmare of retaliation; arduous and monotonous labor; the emergence of hysteresis habitus; longing for lost values; statelessness and the gradual demise of a soldier; feelings of helplessness and the loss of life's meaning; and displacement and social distress. Military personnel endure a wide range of psychological and emotional injuries that, while not fatal like war, are nonetheless traumatic. The profound collapse resulting from the erosion of their core values and status constitutes one such traumatic impact.

The establishment of vital events registration system and awareness of the number and trend of mortality across various age groups have been one of the most important and effective strategies for societies to increase the life expectancy of their citizens. However, the coverage and content deficiencies of registration statistics in many developing countries have encouraged demography specialists to invent indirect methods for estimating demographic indicators. These methods, developed since the late 1950s, have been particularly fruitful in the field of mortality. In this study, an attempt was made to estimate survival probabilities and life expectancy for Iranian men and women during the census years 1966-2016 using the indirect widowhood technique, and to evaluate the effectiveness of this method in the context of the statistics obtained from the census. The results showed that the survival probabilities and life expectancy figures obtained through the widowhood technique, especially for women, tend to be overestimated. The reasons for this overestimation can be found in the unavailability of widowhood technique assumptions in the statistics obtained from the census in Iran and also in the possible inconsistency of the age pattern of death in Iran with the life tables of the model used in this study (Coale and Demeney tables - Western model). It is suggested to test the efficiency of the widowhood technique using sample survey data (where questions appropriate to the widowhood technique are included) and that the results be compared with those from this study.

The distinct age pattern of deaths caused by traffic accidents compared to other major causes of mortality in the country has led to a significant impact of these types of deaths on years of life lost prematurely. Therefore, in this study, provincial differences in years of potential productive life lost (YPPLL) due to traffic accidents were calculated at both the national and provincial levels in 2021. Data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease Study (2021). Then, using the standard method, years of potential life lost (YPLL) and YPPLL were calculated. The findings reveal that the values of these two indicators in the country and for both genders are higher than the global average. Additionally, for both indicators, there are significant differences at the provincial level of the country. The provinces of Sistan and Baluchestan, Fars, and Hormozgan had the highest rates, while the provinces of Tehran and Alborz had the lowest rates of YPLL and YPPLL in the country. The results of the study underscore the importance of addressing provincial differences in the premature death index due to traffic accidents as a potential for reducing these deaths and ultimately increasing life expectancy at birth.
