The Research population included men and women of above 15 and the sample was selected through proportional stratified technique. Data were gathered through the survey method and analyzed by SPSS software. The findings approved traditionalist theory with an opportunity for new interpretation of modernism theory regarding the formation of women ethnic identity.
