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.
