The Model of Social Trust based on Social Intelligence, Social Identity and Social Isolation based on the Moderating Role of Gender and Family Economic Status on Senior High School Students in Tehran

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to model social trust based on social intelligence, social identity, and social isolation based on the moderating role of gender and family economic status on secondary school students in Tehran. Methodology: The research method was descriptive correlation based on modeling and structural equations. The statistical population consisted of all high school students in Tehran in the year 2019, from which 495 students were selected by multistage cluster sampling method. Data collection was done based on Social Confidence Questionnaire (Johnson, 1993), Social Intelligence Questionnaire (Ang Ton Teeth, 2008), Social Identity Questionnaire (Jenkins, 2000) and Social Isolation Questionnaire (Modaresi Yazdi, 2014). Data analysis was done by SPSS19 and PLS-SEM software in two descriptive and inferential sections. Structural equation modeling was used to test the hypotheses. Findings: The results showed that based on the identified dimensions and components, the research model had a good fit. The results also showed that the results of social isolation, social intelligence and social identity had an impact on students' social trust. It should be noted that the social isolation variable has a negative coefficient and social intelligence and social identity have a positive path coefficient. It is therefore concluded that gender has a moderating effect on the coefficients of variable social identity on social trust. The coefficient indicates that social identity in girls has a greater impact on social trust than boys. It should be noted that gender has no moderating role in the relationship between social intelligence and social isolation with social trust. The results also showed that the relationship between social identity, social intelligence and social isolation with social trust in the high and low economic status group was different. Conclusion: Therefore, it is concluded that the economic situation has a moderating effect on the coefficients of the variables of social identity, social intelligence and social isolation on social trust.

Influence of Online Merging Offline Method on University Students’ Active Learning Through Learning Satisfaction

“…Social isolation is the separation of physical space and the result of lack of interaction and communication ( Modarresi Yazdi, 2014 ). Social isolation reduces the links between individuals and between individuals and groups ( Falahi et al, 2020 ), with many negative effects, such as negative impacts on students’ online active learning and online active learning willingness ( Wang and Huang, 2020 ). As a measure to avoid the influence of the COVID-19, social isolation has greatly affected the work of teachers and the learning process of students.…”

“…Therefore, in recent years there has been extensive research on social trust by sociologists, criminologists, psychologists, political scientists, and economists (Salmi, Smolej & Kivivuori, 2007;Krueger & Meyer-Lindenberg, 2019;Falahi, Afjeh & Entezar, 2020) in effort to understand how these factors affect one another in the rise and decline of social trust. The early works of Putnam (2000) have shown a decline in social capital and, in effect, in social trust.…”
