Abstract
Our country has been seeking the interaction of officials with the people and vice versa for many years. The creation of local management among the local people themselves is also associated with this issue. In the meantime, good governance through components such as participation, accountability, etc. can be the connecting factor. In this study, we try to study and analyze the effects of good governance on improving the social welfare indicators of rural areas of Frieden city. This research is applied in terms of purpose and is descriptive-analytical and correlational. The statistical population of the study is all heads of households living in the villages of Frieden city, which according to the last census in 2016 is equal to 23311 people and 8430 households, of which 385 people were selected using the Cochran's formula. The instrument was measured by the Mohaghegh Questionnaire, the validity of which was formally verified by Mohaghegh University professors. With Cronbach's alpha coefficient by Spss23 software, the reliability of the questionnaire for good governance variables was 0.830% and for social welfare indicators was 0.837. Percentage was obtained. Sampling was based on the principle of proportional division and the questionnaire was distributed randomly among residents. In analyzing the results, first the good governance situation and social welfare of the regions were measured and then with the help of Pearson correlation correlation test and multiple regression test, the relationship of independent variable to dependent was measured. Pearson correlation results showed that there was a moderate to strong relationship between all variables of good governance and social welfare. In multiple regression, variables (good governance) predict 61% of the variance (social welfare). Meanwhile, the responsibility variable with beta coefficient of 0.30% is more effective than other variables in improving social welfare indicators. It can be said that the sense of responsibility of local managers according to the pattern of good governance increases the level of social welfare of the villages of Frieden city
