The Relationship between National and Ethnic Identities of Azerbaijanis,
Fars, Lor, Kurd, and Arab Students in Iranian Universities
In the present era, the existence of many ethnic groups in Iran and the way
they interact with each other is one of the most important issues in every
country. There are different beliefs and opinions about increasing ethnic
trends; on the other hand, it is believed that these ethnic orientations are not
in conflict with individuals’ national identity. This research was carried out
with the aim of investigating the relationship between national identity and
ethnic identity of Azeri, Lur, and Persian origin university students. This
study was carried out using cluster sampling method on 400 students in universities
in Tehran, West Azerbaijan, Ahwaz, and Lorestan in 2015. Findings
of this research show that there is a positive relationship between national
identity and ethnic identity. This means that with an increase in the score of
components of ethnic identity, the scores for national identity increase too.
