After completing the process, the main categories were coded and extracted, resulting in 24 descriptive codes with 82 references from the interviews. In the second step of the research, with a quantitative approach, fitting the extracted model was done, based on the survey strategy, with a statistical population of 18-39 years old living in Ilam with 43,540 people from which 800 people were selected by cluster and simple random sampling. The fit model based on the structural equation approach was confirmed by PLS software. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the extracted components of the role of Ilam TV programs in controlling the risk and social risk-taking of young people are significantly confirmed. The role of entertainment, drama and educational programs of Ilam TV was more and news programs did not play a role.
