Abstract

Living single in Iran has an increasing trend. Single life experiences for Women can bring lots of hazards. The objective of this research is to address the relationship between religious believes and High risk behavior among Yazd Women. In the current study, we have used theories of social pressure and social deterrence. The theoretical framework of the present research is Emile Durkheim's theory of social solidarity. This is descriptive-analytic study that has been examined by a standardized questionnaire as the instrument. The population of the research include single Women aged 18 and above in Yazd province. Using Cochran formula, the sample size was calculated 385 people. We have used multi-stage cluster sampling. Different areas of the city were divided into three parts (north, center, and south), and two blocks from each part was selected as the sample. In order to analyze the data, we have also applied SPSS 16. The results have indicated that tendency toward High risk behavior among Women is at the average level. Furthermore, the religious ties of the Women are at the average level. There is a reverse and significant relationship between Religiosity and High risk behavior (-0. 619). The High risk behavior declines as Religiosity increases (p=0. 000). Also, there is a significant relationship between Religiosity (24. 126) and marital status (p=0. 000). The Religiosity of married people is more than that of single people (p=0. 000). The analysis of regression indicated that religious attitude affects High risk behaviors with beta coefficient of-0. 558. Despite wide social changes, the results of this study confirmed that religion still controls High risk behaviors.
