Abstract
The purpose of this article is to study the factors contributing to the political alienation of the students at Shiraz University. To explain the concept of alienation, Geyer’s theoretical framework in the social psychology was used. The statistical universe of the research consisted of 6822 persons, of which 400 were taken randomly, using couckran formula. The results show that the variables self-confidence, political content, the family’s self-guided educational method and sense of gratitude had the greatest effect of the students’ political alienation. The multi-variable analysis showed that among the above-mentioned variables, self-confidence and political content were the most significant variables, followed by two other variables; that is, the father’s education and his degree. The results indicate that political alienation is a multi-faceted phenomenon developed during the process of socialization, and which is affected by certain psychological and sociological (subjective and objective) factors.
