The regeneration of old and deteriorated urban fabrics and its instability are key issues within the urban planning system, prompting relevant institutions to reorganize and revitalize these areas. This study aims to identify and assess the indicators and factors that affect urban regeneration while providing an integrated model to elucidate these factors. Employing a descriptive-analytical and survey research method, this study focuses on the residents of the outdated Dezful structure, having a population of 29,277 according to the 2015 census. Cochran's formula determined a sample size of 384 individuals, who were randomly selected to complete the questionnaire. The data collection tool includes questionnaires, alongside interview and observation methods to ensure completeness. Statistical analyses using the SPSS and AMOS software reveal that social and economic factors significantly influence the reconstruction of the outdated fabric of Dezful, with the social factor being the most crucial, having a factor load of 0.86.
