Being an active and voluntary deed that is devoid of any self centeredness, martyrdom is regarded as a valuable action and God considers a great reward for the martyrs. Since martyrdom affects different people differently, it is essential that the degree to which society is affected by this culture be investigated; in addition the other factors that influence the culture of martyrdom should also be surveyed. In order to achieve this goal i. e. the degree to which society is affected by this culture, a specific questionnaire was provided the stability of which is satisfactory. The research community includes all the junior students at the high schools of Guilan Province during the academic year of 2000 - 2001. This community was divided in to three different areas: West, East, and Centre among which 405 students were chosen at random. The means of this research were descriptive statistics (Percentage, average, variance and ….) and deductive statistics (T – Test, Variance analyze, Chaffee Test). The findings of this research indicate that:
1.There is meaningful relationship between the occupation of fathers and how well the students are affected by the culture of martyrdom at the stage of 0/1. Using variance analyze test and Chaffee Test it was clarified that the illiterate fathers are lower with regard to the degree that they are affected with this culture in comparison with the other groups. However, this degree does not change so much between the other groups of job and hence it is no meaningful.
2.There is meaningful difference between fathers and children in how well they are affected by the culture of martyrdom: a = % 1. Using the T – Test, it was clarified that fathers are more influenced by the culture of martyrdom in comparison with their children.
