Popis: Background & Objectives: This research aimed to determine the relationship between awareness of Islamic citizenship rights and organizational similar-to-me of education managers of Zanjan University of Medical Sciences, Zanjan, Iran. Materials and Methods: This descriptive and correlational research was performed on all education department managers and faculty members with a history of education department management. Convenience sampling was applied to select 117 subjects who had passed online courses on citizenship rights. Moreover, data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire in the form of a five-point Likert scale. In addition, data analysis was performed applying Lisrel 8.5. Results: In this study, the results demonstrated that in the direct path, the principle of dignity (path coefficient=-0.20) had the most effect on the dependent variable. However, in the indirect path, the variables of freedom of expression (-0.17), social-political right (-0.15), and freedom of thought (-0.04) had the most impact on the dependent variable of the research (organizational similar-to-me of education department managers) due to the mediating variable of the right to security. Conclusion: According to the results of the study, all variables exerted impacts on the indirect path through the mediating role of the right to security. In order to better realize Islamic citizenship rights, it is recommended that the right to security (occupational-psychological) be provided so that a decrease could occur in the organizational similar-to-me effect in education department managers.
