Presence of Clergymen in religion, social and political life had been legitimized with Islamic theoretical base and historical necessity in Iran’s society. Surveys have shown that clergymen’s prestige has been changed (Particularly among the youth) after the Islamic Revolution. Regarding the extension of critical approach and critical thinking in education system, the purpose of this research is to investigate the relation between students' critical thinking and adherence to clergymen. The statistical population included all MA students of state universities in Tehran . Three hundred seventy (370) students were selected through Kuokran's formula and PPS sampling. The results have shown that there is not a significant relation between critical thinking and adherence to clergymen. But adherence to clergymen is shown to have a negative relation with inquisitiveness and open-mindedness subscales. There is a positive relation between truth-seeking and adherence. Also there is a positive relation between critical thinking and going to non-clergy specialists of religion.

According to the interpretive theories, social phenomena, including hijab, are made by society members, jointly. In the beginning every person has a distinct perception of a social phenomenon, then different people share their perceptions through social interactions and therefore the similarities and differences of this perceptions and also the misperceptions are modified and a shared social reality which is accepted and obeyed by all society members is shaped, and this society-made social reality canalize and direct their social behaviors. So to modify ifaf & hijab culture in Iran, we should rebuild the correct way of cover and behavior that has been changed and deviated during last years, and redefine a new social reality on the basis of Islamic values and make it objective. In this article, the modification process of ifaf & hijab social reality is presented though 3 stages of externalization, objectivation & internalization. In the first stage of this process, correct and value-based, objective and shared perceptions and interpretations about agreeable type of behavior and wearing (behavior and wearing standards) is shaped. In the second stage a new social reality about the Islamic type of behavior and wearing is created based on Islamic values, and finally in the third stage, underlying values of the new social reality is internalized and stabilized in the society.
