Statistical population included people 15 to 34 years old of both genders located in different neighborhoods of Sanandaj of whom 250 people were elected through combined sampling methods. The consequences of the study revealed that the young generation in Sanandaj have got significant democratic political culture characteristics. Although based on the results, they support gender equality, but in term of political comprehension and interests which is one of the characteristics for democratic political culture a low score has been obtained, but they are participatory in the term of civil and collective life. Another findings of the study that should be highly considered is the low rate of political reliability of young people that If it is not examined, it could be a serious alarm for the legitimacy of the future political system.
