In recent years, because of irregular population increase, many civil textures gradually lost their main function and were faced with bad functioning And loss of good conditions of the life become worn tissue. These worn and old textures have attracted the attention of urban renovators. However, urban renovation has encountered many problems in diverse ereas and at times has progressed slowly. The theories of modernization are the theoretical framework of this texture. Due to mental poverty of the inhabitorts and owners it is impossio renovale these textures spontaneously and due tspecific mentality of the people and traditional style of the texture. Quick change accompanied with rapid growth can affect undesired psychological and social artworks in these areas. The point that a city without change can hardly called a city, civil inhabitants should also accept the transformation of mentally an in reality, thus it is necessary to undergo major fundamental developments and modernizations in people cultural believes. So, it seems that In this regard, cultural renovation should be utilizied as the renovation of old civil textures. There is a critical relation between mental renovation and civic texture innovations in the megacity of Tehran.

Infant weight is one of the main index in the assessment of a society's access to the primary health care services. The increasing evidence that socio-economic factors are interrelated infant growth measures. The reproductive success is influenced by internal and external environment (biological, socio-economical, ecological, genetic and racial factors and traditions) in the life course growth. On the basis of the above factors, anthropometrical studies on infants have been conducted with the aim of obtaining the characteristics of ethnic groups inhabiting a particular geographical region. Unfortunately, data on these important maternal growth variables are not available.The study compared the predictive strength for 0-1 old age infant weight of several socio- economic variables (such as maternal age, Parity, educational attainment, gender of infant and parent birthplace) in Arak city in Iran. Results were shown that maternal factors are strong determinants of the prenatal growth of infants but these variables are less than effective during life course of 0-1years old age infants.

This paper has been done on the basis of various theories including Erich Fromm's Character Theory, Herbert Blumer's Action Theory, Erving Goffman's Dramatic Theory, Frame Analysis and Stigma Theory, Jurgen Habermas' Public Sphere and the Theory of Communicative Action, Robrt.K.Merton's the Theory of Ways and Goals, Sigmund Freud's structure of Psyche and Carl Gustav Jung's Collective Unconscious.This study applied qualitative methods such as situation analysis and also fieldwork and documentary method. In this method, two situations were determined for analysis. Examination of the first situation, called downstage, shows the influence of group functions of group-therapy on consumers in group sphere. In the second situation, called upstage, the influences of group functions on personal and career lives of individuals are examined. The results of this study shows: By examination of the relation between these two situations, it could be analyzed that in the first situation, downstage, individuals are completely influenced by secondary frame of group and its ways and goals and perfectly follow the social self of group. In the second situation, they are also influenced by this mode, although due to the frame determined by family and society, they encounter with some limitations. But in this situation they also follow the social self of group reasonably in a way that approach to real self and are influenced by this.

Regional planning is a process for integrating social, economical and cultural development plans with spatial dimension for making equilibrium between three elements of human being, activities and space in within and between regions for achieving sustainable and appropriate pattern. The aim of this paper is while describing theoretical dimensions of regional planning dissolve and explain thinking beds and practical activities of regional planning in Iran and analyzing existence challenges in the context. The results reveal that although regional planning is neglected in neo-classic and classic theories but view points such as economical dichotomy, regional convergence and polarization approaches in spatial structures deliberate regional planning issue. In IRAN notwithstanding exceeding disparity existing in regional planning structure, the necessity of regional planning from the first socio-economic development plan (1948-1955) felt, but with dominancy of the national planning and partial structure regional planning had not any occasion and nowadays this pattern of planning in country faced with many challenges that without removal of them, accessing to sustainable and balance spatial development that are major goals of regional planning, is not convincible.

Today's one of the significant issues in development scope is the rate of the social participation of women in deferent fields of the society.Women as half of the population has direct influence on society's development, and developmental trends should be based on women's active social participation, but they always faced various obstacles, and much potential of them have been left untouched.Using a combined theoretical framework, the current survey is going to study the impact of self identity in social participation.

The data gathering technique is questionnaire which measures participation in formal and informal aspects.The results of the research indicate that the rate of women's total participation is low additionally informal participation is higher than formal ones. There is also significant relationship between independent variables such as lifestyle, basic trust, and attitude toward gender - stereotypes with social participation.

This study has been done to investigate factors related to social identity formation among two generation of shirazi women. In doing so, we have used the theories by Anthony Giddens and Richard Jenkins in order to describe women social identity of the previous and current generations. In data collection the survey technique has been applied. This survey has been done upon 4oo Shirazi women as a sample by use of multi-step and simple random sampling. The results showed that the mean score of social identity of women belonging to the current generation is 184.05 and that is 191.89 for the previous generation. In two-variable analysis, we have seen a significant variation between variable of information source, education, parent’s education, income, welfare, social satisfaction, self-esteem and the extent of communication network with women social identity in previous generation.In multi-variable analysis, it is shown that variables of self-esteem and information source (National TV and Radio) has a significant relationship with women social identity in current generation. Other variables stood out of regression equation. In the order of priority, variables of self-esteem, the settlement status and the extent of communication network has a significant relationship with women social identity in previous generation.
