Often it said that: “you will not able to manage if could not measure” and “every thing will be executable if it could be measured.” Despite abundant prompts have been done about measurement of social capital by the researchers around the world, regretfully, there is a significant weakness which is the lack of unanimity about measuring method of these phenomena between them. Importantly, the first step in the measuring every entity is definition of its features and attributes. So, this article has been started by mentioning various definitions of social capital, pursuing by social capital measuring methods by emphesizing on disagreement of experts’ views. Among the qualitative modells; SCAT modell, presented by by Bin & Hix; CRLRA, developed by Falk & Kilpatric as well as Krishna and Sherader have been introuced, then quantitatives modells including Snigders, Patnam and Fukuyama demonstrated and following that, measurable and economical patterns in order to measuring social capital explained. Suggested pattern has been intruduced after presenting of conceptual pattern.In this stage, four dimentions of social capital have been considered and the relative components of each dimention introduced and following at components measuring indexes illustrated with tables and form. At the end, regarding the experimental execution of this model in the Sience and Research of Islamic Azad University, executive steps as well as some results of the research have been explained breifly.
