Abstract
The country of Iran is a multinational society that includes various cultural, linguistic and religious groups. What is extremely important in such societies is the creation and strengthening of national solidarity and at the same time preserving the diversity that can be seen in different fields in ethnic groups. The current research was carried out in the framework quantitative method and with survey analysis. The statistical population consists of 299 Turkmen people in different Turkmen-inhabited cities of Golestan province. Data analysis was done at two descriptive levels for mean and frequency distribution and at inferential level for t-tests and correlation coefficient. Also from theories; Central identity, modernization and relative privacy were used to explain some of the statistical data. In general, the results show that the ethnic tendencies of Turkmen people are not very strong in different dimensions, and this, in addition to the mentioned theoretical explanations, significantly shows the lack of understanding of the dimensions of ethnic history among these people. This issue also reveals the educational vacuum in the relevant fields as well as the predominance of the structure culture for this people. Of course, the statistics show that degree of tendency towards national identity and ethnic identity among the Turkmen of Golestan province is higher than the average. On the other hand, in a comparison, there is a significant difference between tendency towards ethnic identity and national identity, and the average tendency towards ethnic identity among these ethnic groups is more than the tendency towards national identity.
