A Model for Studying Religious Non-commitment in Iran

Some terms, while having popular application, bear a clear and precise semantic load and are capable of being used in precise scientific discussions. Attempts have been made in the present paper to conceptually retrieve the term “religious noncommitment” and also to show how far this expression can complete our system within the framework of the discussions related to religiosity. Religious noncommitment, as a referent of the four changes in this field, is a growing phenomenon and hence it is necessary to launch a comprehensive study about it in conceptual, theoretical and practical fields. The outcome here has been conceptual retrieval and highlighting it as well as offering an explanatory model to prepare the necessary grounds for field studies and intervention in reality.
