The Impact of Religious Places on the Feeling of Safety Among Women Case Study: Imamzade Yahya in Sari Golamreza Latifi[1] , Iman Ghalandarian[2] , Sediqeh Sargazi[3] Received: 10/12/2016 Accepted: 6/1/2018 Abstract Security and safety are considered as one of the principles of designing urban spaces for planners and urban planners. The lack of security in the open spaces of the cities reduces the vitality and availability of space. In this regard, women are more vulnerable than men, in other words, feel less secure in more places and have a diminutive presence. In this research, Imamzadeh Yahya Square in the city of Sari has been considered as a public space and the construction of Emamzadeh as one of the religious places has been measured in terms of security feeling. The research method is a quantitative. The research data was collected through a survey with a sample size of 96 people, field studies, interviews and questionnaire. In order to determine the level of women's sense of security in this urban environment, the religious place was seen as an independent variable and the sense of security with reagents such as readability, vitality, etc has been investigated as a dependent variable. The findings indicate that more than half of the women consider the Emamzadeh's tomb effective in their sense of security. According to research hypotheses, there is a direct relation between the existence of the emamzadeh (religious places) in the city and the sense of security.

A Comparative Study between Place and out of Place Concepts in City Social Development with an Environmental Psychology Approach Alireza Bandarabad[1] Received: 9/9/2017 Accepted: 9/1/2018 Abstract The aim of environmental design is the creation of places. But in the meantime, "out of places" is also important. With this starting point, questions are asked about the definition, recognition, foundation, and location of places and outside them, so that identifying and explaining the imagination of the place would be at the top of the affair. Are only "places" booming, or "out of places" are also dynamic and refreshing? In this study in order to find an answer, the two seemingly distinct concept of "place" and "out of place" in the city are compared in a comparative perspective of environmental psychology. In this context, the physical image, activities and meanings are raw materials of the place identity and the dialectics between them is the structural relationship between this identity, which is sometimes felt to occur in "out of places." In this research, applying qualitative content analysis methods and by through analyzing the data extracted by the field studies method, the concept of place in the city is discussed in order to identify its constituent criteria. These criteria are used to evaluate "out of place" in the city to answer the question why "out of places" in the city are sometimes as important as "places". The results of this study, which are mainly based on the qualitative content analysis method, show that efforts to remove "out-of-place" phenomena in cities are not completely positive.
