The current conditions of global communication, development and growth of various technologies, social networks, continuous cultural confrontation, generational differences, etc., have caused the issue of "identity" to become an important topic in social research. The present research investigates, identifies, and determines the composition of the identity of the youth of Yasuj and the factors influencing it. This research was conducted using a survey method among elites and cultural, academic experts, and organizations related to the youth of Yasuj using a questionnaire. In this article, an attempt has been made to examine two internal factors (the function of institutions, centers, and identity-making factors of society) and external factors (virtual space, the influence of foreign culture patterns, and international developments) affecting the tendency of Yasuj youth toward identity, using the literature and theoretical foundations of the research. The obtained data were analyzed using statistical tests and SPSS software. The results of the assessment showed that in comparing the identity dimensions of Yasuj youth, the ethnic identity dimension ranks first, the Iranian identity dimension ranks second, the Islamic identity dimension ranks third, and the Western identity dimension ranks fourth. Similarly, internal factors with a mean rank of 1.88 and external factors with a mean rank of 1.12 respectively affect the tendency of Yasuj youth toward Western identity. According to the research results, the youth of Yasuj, for reasons such as adherence to local customs and the traditional texture of the city, have a high tendency toward ethnic identity, and respondents believe that if internal identity-making factors can play their role well, external factors cannot have a major impact on the identity of Yasuj youth.
