Rezumat: | This article is concerned with the peculiarities of social capital focusing on the alterations of social trust and the social factors that influence it among the Yezidi rural population of Armenia. Our theoretical framework has been adopted from the following theorists: the theory of social system in terms of the theory of action – Parsons and the theory of structure-agency – Giddens. Our sample contained 300 of the over 20-year old residents of the Yezidi rural population of the Republic of Armenia. When validity and reliability of our questionnaire were tested, we applied survey research to collect data for analysis. There is difference between kinds of trust and they don’t have the same mean. The mean of basic trust was 16%, generalized trust 15% and abstract trust mean was 74%. Thus, our study shows that in the society under study the rate of basic trust is no less than other kinds of trust. In other words, the mean of basic trust is something more than generalized trust but less than abstract trust. The value of the correlation coefficient was positive, and this shows that by increasing the rate of religious tenets, the level of social trust will increase subsequently, and vice versa. In this article, unlike the usual procedure of articles, I have tried to focus on the results part – because of its importance – and only referred succinctly to other parts. |
