Abstract :
The use of scientific methods for studying and leveling the regions in terms of developing cultural aspects has led to the recognition of the level of inequalities and is a criterion for trying to reduce and eliminate existing inequalities among them. Therefore, in this research, we tried to study the differences and inequalities between the cities of East Azarbaijan province in terms of the status and levels of cultural indicators. To provide a clear and transparent picture of cultural facilities and services in the form of regional development planning and the determination of the degree of inadequacy. The present study is descriptive-analytical and quantitative. Statistical population includes all the cities of East Azarbaijan province. The statistics and information required from the statistics of the planning and budget organization of the East Azarbaijan governorate have been prepared using data from 10 cultural indicators of 1394. The Shannon entropy method was used to obtain the coefficient of importance of the indices and for analysis, multi-criteria decision making models TOPSIS and SAW were used. The indicators used in this study are: X1 Number of members of the Children's Intellectual Development Center, X2 Number of cinemas, X3 Number of centers for intellectual development of children and adolescents, X4 Number of public libraries, X5 Number of printers, X6 Showroom, X7 Number of spectators , X8 Number of seats for cinemas, X9 Number of cinema halls, X10 Number of members of public libraries. The results indicate an imbalance in the distribution of cultural indicators.
