Abstract

The present study has been carried out to investigate the prediction of family efficiency through the dimensions of Islamic lifestyle in teachers of Qaen City. This research is considered a descriptive-correlational study. In this study, one-stage cluster random sampling method was used. Thus, among the teachers of Ghaen city, 250 people were randomly selected. Necessary data were collected using Kaviani Islamic Lifestyle Questionnaire (2009) and Houshyari, Taghian and Safouraei Family Efficiency Questionnaire (2016) and the results were analyzed through SPSS software using Pearson correlation coefficient and regression test. The findings suggested that there is a positive and significant relationship between the four dimensions, social, intrinsic, devotional, and altruistic characteristics with family efficiency, and a negative and significant relationship between the four dimensions of worldliness, committing sin, hedonism, and lack of ambition with family efficiency and finally, there is no significant relationship between the negative intellectual dimension and family efficiency. The results of regression analysis showed that three dimensions of social, intrinsic and altruistic characteristics can predict the efficiency of the family (R2adj = 0.32).
