In this study, 229 STUDENTs of Shahroud Islamic Azad University of Medical Sciences were participated. STUDENTs answers to questions were analyzed with significance level of 0.05 using SPSS-v20 and descriptive and inferential statistics.Results: The average of population’s age was 22.01±2.62 years.70.3% of them were females, and 63.8% of them were living in dorms and 61.1% were undergraduate. Also the mean and standard deviation of STUDENT's score was 19.74±6.32.
