This research is based on the exploratory factor analysis research method which is a branch of correlation research and has been done by the analysis of covariance matrix method.

The obtained meanings were completed with documentary sources and then a preliminary questionnaire was prepared and distributed among the statistical sample and the preliminary results were obtained. According to the results, the questionnaire was edited and the final questionnaire was prepared and distributed among the statistical population and the final results extracted. The results of the research show the continuity of tradition and social values derived from Islamic teachings in combination with Iranian culture in historical contexts. Gaining respect and social approval are other most important values of living in this place with the pattern of Iranian-Islamic culture.
