Descriptive survey research method was used and the unit of analysis is 15-29 year old women that 284 women are selected on the basis of Cochran formula and using multi-stage random cluster sampling. The results show that there is a weak significant relationship between the independent variables of security, social control, socioeconomic base and the dependent variable of social deviations. Also, there is not any correlation among variables of social support, social trust, sense of social security and deviations.
