The main purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between demographic characteristics such as gender, socio-economic status and youth citizenship rights. The dependent variable of citizenship rights has been studied in five areas of civil, political, economic-social, gender and cultural rights. The thought of sociologists such as Marshall and Talcott Parsons on the equal and complete enjoyment of citizenship by all citizens forms the theoretical framework. The research method was survey and using Krejcie and Morgan table, the sample size of 400 people was determined. The method was multi-stage cluster sampling and a questionnaire was used to collect data. In addition to descriptive statistics, Spearman and Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test, analysis of variance and multivariate regression were used using SPSS software.Findings show that the average citizenship rights among individuals is relatively high and its average of 5 is equal to 3.11. about 19% consider their citizenship rights to be very high. Among the dimensions of citizenship rights, the gender dimension dimension has the lowest with 2.98 and the political dimension has the highest average with 3.77. The results show that there is a significant relationship between most demographic characteristics such as age, income and socio-economic status with the level of knowledge of citizenship rights. The demographic set explains and predicts 20.6% of the variance and changes in citizenship rights. The socio-economic status, age and level of education had the greatest impact.
