Abstract

   Elite groups comprise a significant portion of every society, and if they are not recognized, recruited, guided and employed correctly and at the right time, the society will suffer serious harms in its progress. On the other hand, adolescence is a phase when one’s personality is developed and paves the way for one’s future life. Thus, it could be taken as a determining factor for the elite groups so that if it goes unattended, both the individual and the society will undergo unreparable harms. The adolescent at this time usually joins various groups to answer to his material and spiritual needs. Collective communication, under the category of social psychology surveys different issues as group dynamism, from the nature and features of a group to its formation theories, kind of member communication, and its functions. Recognizing these participatory observation and capacities in formulating the related policies about elite groups can play a crucial role in the identification, recruitment, and guidance of these groups in society. This research attempts to utilize the actual collective communication potentials in the field of adolescent elite groups to study the policies of the center for elite scholars that are active in the southern Tehran. It finally provides a model of collective communication capacities in order to formulate policies in the field of adolescent elites. To this end, besides using documentary methods, it has benefited from participatory observation and in-depth interview for studying the whole intended group.
