Abstract :
The problem of girls running away from their homes has increased in the society in the recent years. It is one of the social problems and controlling it requires strong management. But besides this factor, character attributions and personal motivation play a significant role causing this problem.This study is from the retrospective type.To carry out these research 120 subjects (60 runaway and 60 normal girls) were chosen. The runaway girls between 11 to 30 years in age, who were arrested in 1390-1391 by police and handed over to Tabriz Social Emergency Center, were chosen. The normal girls were equalized with runaway girls according to their age, level of education, and financial level. In this study Carver and White’s activation/inhibition behavioral systems module were used. The results of the findings in the research showed that the difference between two groups of runaway and normal girls in behavioral activation system and behavioral inhibition system was different and both systems were more active in runaway girls.The difference between activation/ inhibition behavioral systems in runaway and normal girls was meaningful. Theoretical and research based challenges in finding the character attribution has opened a new window to the questions the researches have thought for decades. For this reason the efforts of the research has been focused on studying the character attribution responsible in girl’s running away from their houses.
