The objective of the paper is to study lived experience of Iranian Instagram users. The forming of specific kind of interactions has established by special features of the social media. The features embedded new experiences in the everyday routines of the active users; so the authors concentrated who are since long time active in this social media. Interpretive phenomenology approach and semi-structured interview has been used to understanding the deep meanings of their experiences. Concentrating on experienced users with at least two years of membership, totally, sixteen participants have been interviewed. Thematic analysis has been used for analyzing participants’ answers. Analysis of the data identified different themes such as like as appreciation and creation of social relationship; comment as dialogue field; the importance of affluence of users; and lack of formation of real friendships. In sum, regarding increasing blurring of real and cyber life differences, one must not ignore consequences of cyber experiences such as inclusion and exclusion on real life. Furthermore, any interruption in the everyday practices of Instagram users could lead to negative social and psychological consequences.

Rumors are unofficial and invalid statements that create in several steps within communication systems, since information transmitted from a person to another, so there is huge chance for mutilate information. (Gloria 2015). Today rumors in social messengers, for example Telegram, are very rampant and on the other side, Telegram users and people believed this rumors easily and even retransmit that rumors. One of the main reasons that users interests in diffusing rumors on social messengers is that they are not adhere to Gothenburg - Written communication principles and so they go from first Oral communication to second one. On the other side when audience does not convinced by official media (like national TV) and feels the event whole or partly doesn’t expose to him (by TV policy officers or reporter). So they lose trust in official news agencies and therefore try to get information from other ways like social messengers, resulting that audiences use news and rumors (planned or unplanned) that diffuse in social messengers as a source of information. In this thesis researcher wants to investigate if national (government or state) media inform audiences truly, can we still observe rumor transmission and retransmission on society? How much of the national media is effective in the growth of this phenomenon? In fact researcher wants to investigate the Relation between Trust to the National Media and the Reliable Predictability of the Rumors that spread in Telegram (social messenger) in Ahvaz (city). In this research observed that 37.8 percent of audiences admitted Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting(national media) in the field of fast transfer of relevant news,53.6 of audiences admitted Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting in using of reliable sources for news, 57.8 audiences admitted that The dependence of the national media on the political system in too strong, 50.3 of audiences admitted too strong and strong censorship in Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting(national media), and 37.5 percent of audiences describe the performance of national media in Comprehensiveness of news and programs as suitable, also observed that fast transfer of news, The dependence of the national media on the current political system(government) and censorship are effective factors in the tendency to believe in the rumor on social messenger

this study aims to answer the question that how the image of the intellectual woman is constructed in the Iranian movies? In order to achieve the purpose, 13 movies, which have been selected by purposive sampling method, have been analyzed through the «narrative analysis« method and considering the «specific intellectual« theory of Michel Foucault. Results show that in the Iranian movies specific intellectual woman is an independent, employed, educated woman who stands against the family rules. Hence, «family« is the main functional zone of intellectual women; and the narrative of these women in the cinema is the construction of «the conflict between inside and outside intellectual« in the 1980’s, construction of «the rebellious modern intellectual« in 1990’s and construction of «defeated modern intellectual« in 2000’s. Finally, construction of these concepts are related to dominant political discourses. political discourses. Keywords: Intellectual Woman; Specific Intellectual; Narrative Analysis; Michel Foucault; Sociology of Film

The generational memory ofthe Iran-Iraq war is meant to be the memory shared by those whose collectiveexperience of war has shaped their views in the same period of history. Thefundamental fact of generational memory is that different generations interpretand remember past events in varied ways. Thus, the incident as effective as theIran-Iraq war can act as a focal point in the reproduction of collectiverepresentations of the past, and in the present conditions of the society canconfigure the mentality of the generation around the understanding and commonsense of war. For a conceptualization of generational memory of war, after anoverview of individualistic and collectivist models of collective memory andthe expression of deficiency in their methodological strategies, a new model ofcognitive sociology was used to examine the mechanisms of generational memory’sproduction. In this model, collective memory as a knowledge structures and inthe form of memory schemata which exists at a supra-individual level of sociallife, is cognitive by-product of the social interaction of culturally relatedindividuals with each other amongcultural objects. The dominant methodology of research has been qualitativemethod, the technique of deep and semi-structured interview has been used fordata collection, and the method of thematic analysis was used for dataanalysis. The application of the analysis method allowed us to obtain atypology of common knowledge structures that individuals in each groupgeneration can use to understand the meaning of events and phenomena associatedwith warfare. These common knowledge structures, as generational memoryschemata of the war indicate that how two generations with autobiographical andhistorical memories of war represent the Iran-Iraq war.

The emergence of modernity has had consequences for the Iranian society and led to different values in the political, social, cultural and economic spheres. Development of these values while changing attitudes has led to changes in social, cultural and economic activities, including consumerism. The question is wether religiosity, values, traditions, identity, economic and social status can play a deterrent role in the process of consumerism or not? The present study was conducted with a sociological approach and a survey method using a questionnaire. Data was randomly collected from a sample of 506 people (residents of Kashan city) aged 18 years and above. Statistical tests have been used to investigate the relationship between variables. Statistical analysis shows that there is a signifisant correlation between religiosity, traditionalism, revolutionary identity, gender identity, religious values, and economic and social base with consumerism. The results of the multivariate regression equation show that religiosity has the most explanatory power in relation to consumerism. The results of the multivariate regression equation show that religiosity has the most explanatory power in relation to consumerism, Therefore by increasing religiosity the desire for consumption decreases.
