The results of the data analysis show that the average score of Citizenship Culture Index is 108.07 out 140, which is relatively high. The results show that although there is a significant difference in citizenship culture based on the origin of citizenship (rural, tribal and urban), the mean scores of citizenship culture did not show a significant difference between men and women. There was also no significant relationship between the variables of socioeconomic status and the use of mass media with citizenship culture. The results of Pearson correlation test confirmed the positive and strong relationship between social identity, feeling of economic security, social trust and tendency to ethnic and tribal affiliation and perception of political system performance with citizenship culture.
