Pages

  749-769

Abstract

 This study examines the situation of the 17 components of cultural and Social capital and compares it among 190 doctoral students studying at 3 universities in Tehran, Tarbiat Modares and Ferdowsi Mashhad and Iranian doctoral students studying in University of Mysore-India. The study was conducted as a survey and the means of measurement and dimensions of cultural and Social capital through factor analysis and extraction of Cronbach's alpha coefficients were tested for validity and validity. The results show that, the status of cultural and Social capital among Iranian doctoral students is moderate to low. Comparison of students studying in Iran and India shows that the standardized average of 17 indicators among PhD students studying at University of Mysore in India is higher than students studying at 3 Iranian universities. Relationships with family, a sense of security, commitment to ethics and norms, and networking during high school have been rated higher among Iranian students abroad than among Iranian students. The findings suggest that in some cases, students studying abroad, including those related to family relationships, adherence to norms, networking in high school, and a sense of security are better off than students at home. The facts also show that the world of Iranians living abroad is partly related to these four important realities in their lives. The family supports them, adhering to moral norms, so that this finding can partially heal the understanding of the cultural and social environment abroad. These findings show that Iranian students abroad are on average satisfied with adhering to their norms and are committed to moral obligations. High school has been a golden age for them and a time full of Social capital for them, and they have gained the practice of network communication and the power to create network communities around them and exploit network information and support during this time, as well as a sense of security. Abroad compensates for the hardships and adversities of being away from home. Students studying in the country stand out in terms of Social capital components that ensure their success within Iranian society to some extent, such as trust in news sources and trust in friends and cultural interactions in cyberspace. The findings of this study show that the fifth decade of the Islamic Revolution is facing serious challenges in the cultural and social spheres, especially in terms of the situation of the young generation with the source of cultural and Social capital. In order to ensure the success of economic and social development programs, it is necessary to pursue programs to improve this situation at the individual, institutional and social levels. The findings of this study also indicate the fact that students studying abroad have some favorable prominences in relation to the situation of social and Cultural Capital compared to students in the country. Accordingly, given the need to strengthen the cultural and Social capital of the country's universities in the fifth decade of the Islamic Revolution, this finding confirms this principle in policy-making and future planning of higher education that employs a large number of graduates abroad in the guise of board members. Scientific can be effective in improving the public space of the country's universities in terms of promoting the components of cultural and Social capital.
