The method of the current study is surveying in which questionnaires are used for collecting needed information. In this survey, 720 above 15 years old peoples in Kashan are sampled according to the Cochran formula. Superficial credit, detecting factor analysis method and Kronbakh alpha factor are used for validating this survey. According to the measured detecting factor analysis, studied necessities were divided into four groups: cultural-social, scientific-instructional, religious and sportive-artificial. Maximum and minimum values belong to cultural-social necessities with 37.11% average and religious necessities with 15.01% respectively. The rest are in between. Average of cultural-social, scientific-instructional and religious necessities differ with the gender, as women necessities average is more than that of the men. Cultural-social and sportive-artificial necessities averages are different based on habitat, so those who live in villages have more necessities. There is no difference in the other necessities. Although no relation is seen between education and religious and sportive-artificial necessities, education has reverse relation with cultural-social and scientific-instructional necessities. Eventually, artificial-sportive necessities are only increased with increasing the age of people and there is no relation between the age of the people and the rest of the necessities. Likewise, in prioritization of the studied patterns, family is the first, friends, teachers, instructors, clergy and Islamic characters are the second and the other characters (artificial, sportive, political, actors and foreign sportsman, classmates …) are the third priority according to the respondents’ opinions.
