Suicide is among the human behaviors influenced by different biological motives.In current conditions, some issues such as the increasing rate of suicide, the decreasing age of attempting suicide, and the increasing rate of using violent ways to suicide have made it necessary to address this subject as a social problem. Using a qualitative approach and based on the grounded theory of the social and cultural reasons behind suicide attempt, the current study aims to investigate the interaction between the person who suicides and his/her family, group and society as well as its relationship with suicide attempt. Through this, the study seeks to find a more vivid image of the relationship between the factors affecting suicide attempt. A purpose-based sampling was applied in this study; the data was collecting by interviewing the subjects who attempted suicide (15 females) and were treated in the hospitals of Tehran, Iran. The findings indicate that the factors explaining the suicide attempt from the viewpoint of suiciders included Verbal violence, physical violence, social violence, forced displacement, the prevention of employment and divorce, the pressure of tradition, the feeling of tirednees and loneliness, disputes with the schools parents and relatives, lack of sympathy for the spouse, child labor, illness and physical problems, lack of the sponsor and the non- acceptance of the family were identified as the causative conditions of suicide. The results showed that the most obvious reason for the suicide attempt was the way these individuals or their families dealt with the issue of violence.

Violence in society, especially in the family, is one of the acute social problems that is observed in all geographical areas and religious and racial groups and educational, occupational, economic and social levels. The purpose of this study is a sociological analysis of domestic violence against children in Ilam with a grounded theory approach. The study population includes all parents involved in the phenomenon of child abuse in Ilam. The sample size was determined based on theoretical saturation, and the validity of the findings was provided by confirmation and matching with the opinions of expert judges and key informants. In this study, information was collected through in-depth interviews and semi-structured. Analysis of graduate interviews led to the formation of a conceptual framework in the form of causal conditions with the categories of "low economic capital", "corona and change in family lifestyle", "family inefficiency", "health status", background conditions in the form of " "Generational conflict", "Parental anticipation tradition", "Gender inequality", "Another desire", and "Violence as a normative norm", Mediating conditions in the form of "Internet and changing habits", "Conflict of job-family roles", And the strategies of "despair", "punishment as education" and finally the category of negative individual consequence, "family-social consequence".Considering the relationship between the categories, finally the core category of "structural deprivation" was extracted as a category explaining violence against children in the city of Ilam.

The purpose of this research is to study the attitude towards the child phenomenon in the current world. In today's world, we are witnessing change and transformation in all aspects of individual, family and social life. Changes that are inevitable and necessary for the world that surrounds us. Hence, many pre-existing gender roles and sources of identity have lost their priority for modern man and provided him with newer possibilities for self-presentation and a sense of worth. The couple's attitude towards the child, as much as it is an individual or marital decision and choice, can be a result of the change of the couple's identity in the new era, which in both cases (Wanting or not wanting child) will have different consequences on the couple of the last decade than the couples of previous generations. The method of this theory is data foundation. The data required for this study are the result of a semi-structured interview with 18 young couples. The method of selecting participants is purposeful and accessible and their number is determined by reaching the saturation stage. Based on the results of the research, the two central phenomena of "unilateral unstable agreement" and "priority of navigation to adherence" were selected as the central phenomena and the selective phenomenon of "identity fluidity" was selected as the main paradigm. One of the causes of this phenomenon is rethinking identity and self-awareness is a process that results in the social acceptance of childlessness in society.

The aim of this study was to investigate the dysfunctions of supportive policies in women heads of households under the auspices of two support institutions of the Imam Khomeini Relief Committee and the Welfare Organization. In this research, using the concept of social exclusion, the sociological study of the research problem has been studied. The research method is grounded theory and 36 in-depth and semi-structured interviews were conducted with two groups of respondents, including clients and experts. After the triple typology of social exclusion and the corresponding types of dependence, a central phenomenon based on research findings called "passive dependence" has been constructed. The main causes of this phenomenon are known in four categories: "chronic rejection", "dependent socialization of women", "support system" and "stereotyping of female-headed households". The contextual conditions are categorized as "politicization of protections" and "increasing conditions of female-headed households". The terms of the interventionist are also constructed under the categories of "mismanagement" and "failure of law". The consequences of this phenomenon are also formulated in two categories: "continuous demand" and "employment avoidance". In this study, clients who have experienced chronic and intermediate rejection have a high capacity for passive dependence on support - as the main dysfunction of protectionist policies - and it is appropriate to adopt supportive policies for chronic outcasts commensurate with the status of rejection. They should take measures to prevent and control dependence on supports and deposition in the support system for these people.

The present study investigates the causal, contextual, and interventionist conditions of the phenomenon of gender identity disorder, using the "grounded theory" approach. In this regard, the researcher analyzed and interpreted the strategies and consequences of the phenomenon. To achieve this goal, in-depth interviews were conducted with 11 patients who suffered from a gender identity disorder, and three focus group sessions were held with 30 patients. The results indicated that gender identity disorders are a multifaceted phenomenon and its various dimensions have made this phenomenon an inevitable crisis. This phenomenon occurs under conditions such as psychological and mental conflicts, lack of positive feelings about physical characteristics, and occurrences of conflicts with gender which eventually lead to a romantic relationship with the opposite gender and intercourse with homosexuals. Actors in these situations either find gender reassignment surgery a strategy for resolving their gender crisis, or marriage as a strategy offered by their family. In some cases, they suppress and hide their sexual feelings, and follow actions in line with their current gender. These cases will lead to the risky exposure of transsexuals to the post-operative world of gender change.

The present study tries to identify the concept of family in the lived experiences of divorced applicants, using a qualitative method of Foundation data. The aim of this study was to gain an understanding of the life experience of divorce applicants and to discover and extract models from these experiences and to map the relevant paradigms, including the interrelationships between conditions (structure), action (process), and consequences. Data obtained through in-depth and semi-structured interviews with divorce applicants of the Karaj Family Court. The study reached theoretical saturation through the purposive sampling method with a sample size of 9 spouses (n = 18). The data were analyzed through the Strauss & Corbin method in three stages of open, axial and selective coding. The findings show that the causal conditions are the family ideological and structural tyans formation, the family evolution, the cultural problems, and economic problems. The basis conditions include family disorder, the lack of the state interactions, having the tool interaction and neglect to the religion outcome dimension. Intervention conditions are composed of the lack of life skill, the incorrect culture of the modern technology use and the lack of the separation of the family public and private scope. The consequences are of three main categories: the inevitability of divorce, the consequences of divorce, and the loss of family support. The results of the research showed that the phenomenon or category of the family concept in the living experience of divorce applicants is the unbalanced development of the family. As a result, unbalanced family development is largely eliminated by life skills training and social support.

The purpose of this study was to deeply understand the Causes and consequences of sexual violence in homeless women. The method of the present study is qualitative and grounded theory and the data were collected using semi-structured deep interview technique. 19 participants were selected through theoretical and purposeful sampling and information saturation criteria. After analyzing the information, the research findings, on the causal dimension of factors such as addiction and addictive behaviors, economic dependency, daily life style and spatial domains, on the contextual dimension, such as, social exclusion, disruption of family relationships, urban disorganization neighborhoods and the escalating risk of being victimized, and finally, the interventionist dimension of the concepts of inability to pursue justice and the continuation of violence, lack of support and social policies, were extracted. The central theme or phenomenon of research is the inevitability of sexual violence in homeless women. The strategies of homeless women to deal with the current situation are adaptive and change-oriented. Along with the social work attitude, any intervention in the situation of the homeless requires a comprehensive and systematic look at the different dimensions of the problem, its needs and challenges.
