Abstract :
This research has been conducted with the aim of investigating the causes of the intergenerational gap and the conflict between students' discourse and the value system of society. The research method is mixed. The statistical population was students and parents of the second secondary school (high school) in Tehran. The sample size was determined based on Cochran's formula of 385 people. The tool for collecting data in the quantitative part was a questionnaire. The findings show that between the variables of gender, educational level, ethnicity, field of study, economic/social base (0.22), cultural consumption (0.31), material consumption (0.35), leisure time (0.31) ), the amount of use of internal mass media (0.36), the amount of use of virtual networks (0.41), educational space (0.32) and family values (0.45) have a positive and significant relationship. . However, there is a negative and significant relationship between the variables of religious belief (-0.34), religious emotions (-0.26), and religious rituals (-0.30). No significant relationship was observed between the variables of educational background and field of study with intergenerational distance. The regression analysis of the data also shows that the independent variables can explain 0.423 of the changes in the dependent variable. The results of this study show that students face many challenges in identifying and linking themselves with society's values; Therefore, when they cannot face the identity responses to relieve their inner turmoil, they gradually distance themselves from the dominant values and face a gap.
