Social scholars and policy makers consider youth problems very important in contemporary Iranian society. Accordingly, this study is an attempt to investigate one of these problems, namely alienation among youth and its main social factors. To advance this goal, we used some theoretical and investigative experiences provided by psychological and sociological theorists like Melvin Seeman, Edgar Friedenberg , Herbert Markoze, and Eric Fromm. Our research method is descriptive-survey. The Statistical population includes all youth aged 20-30 living in khodabande, a small-sized city in Zanjan located North West of Iran. Applying Cochran sampling formula, we surveyed a sample of 350 young residents of Khodabande. Our main instrument to collect data was a researcher designed questionnaire. The overall result suggests that the rate of social alienation is high among youth (20-30) and its main affective variables include social discontent, individualism, and mass media.
