Method: This is a descriptive (correlative) study for which 419 youth of 18 to 36 years responded to SRQ. The data was studied using exploratory factor analysis, Cronbach’s Alpha and Pearson correlation coefficient.  Result: The analysis of exploratory data showed that 18 items of SQR have been loaded on four factors of "acceptance", "prosocial interactions", "sexual/abusive relations" and "negative social potency." The Cronbach’s Alpha coefficients obtained for the four items stood at 0.75, 0.67, 0.61 and 0.38, respectively.Conclusion: The results of the present study confirm the stability of factor structure and validity of social reward questionnaire for measuring this concept in Iranian youth.
