In spite of vast researches about anomie and its measurements at individual level, these researches have not paid enough attention to high abstraction of anomie and have considered it as one-dimensional construct. Purpose of this study is to bridge this gap and present a multidimensional scale of feeling of anomie. After reviewing all of anomie scales from 1956 to 2007, 22 items were chosen and the responses were arranged on five-point Likert format. Five hundred university students were selected through convenience method of sampling and were required to fill up the designed questionnaire. Explanatory factor analysis revealed two items with very low factor loading that were deleted. Results also suggested three sub-scales that were named meaninglessness and distrust (8 items), powerlessness (7 items), and fetishism of money (5 items). Findings were consistent with theoretical inquiry about anomie.
