Abstract

The main target of this research is evaluating and comparing the  weight- concern  and  eating self-efficacy  between  smokers  and  non -smokers .The said research was based on casual comparative.  100 smoker scholars (50 male,  50 female) and  100 non-smoker  scholars (50 male, 50 female) were selected in a manner of cluster random  sampling. All participants were  questioned by questionnaires on weight concern and  eating self-efficacy; thereafter their grades were compared with each other. By one-sided variance evaluation, It’s found that:”women more than men and non-smokers more than smokers are engaged with weight-concern. But eating self-efficacy test in smokers is almost the same as  non-smokers. While eating self-efficacy in male is more than female. Based on this  research  it is suggested to stop-smoking  clinics: “ Take more attention to whom  smoke  as a factor of weight control. So weigh concern and eating self-efficacy  should be  controlled about this group, too.
