Introduction: Security is one of the fundamental components of social welfare and women as the human wealth of any society have an effective role in promoting the social transcendence and goals. This study aimed to determine the social factors affecting the sense of security in women of Sanandaj city.

 

Method: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed in 18 to 65 year old women of Sanandaj city and 250 samples were selected by multi-period clustering sampling method. A researcher-made questionnaire was used for data gathering. Data was analyzed by Pearson correlation, Tukey and regression tests.

 

Findings: There was no significant relationship between women’s sense of social security in Sanandaj city and economic and social status, appropriate clothing, religiosity and the use of mass media, but there was significant positive correlation between women's sense of social security and social protection (p=0.0001 r=0.399) and place of residence (p=0.0001 r=0.502). These two parameters predicted approximately 30% of the variance of the women’s sense of social security in Sanandaj city.

 

Discussion: Parameters of place of residence and social support security are effective on women’s sense of social security in Sanandaj city and the poor economic status, street harassment and wife abuse are major concerns of many women in this city.
