Methods: In this cross-sectional, descriptive study, the research group was 74.3% (n=268) of the target population. The data of the variables was collected by the questionnaire form which is prepared by the researcher and the Healthy Life Style Behavior Scale (HLSB-II). Results: 59.8% of the study group is male, 60.3% is working and 55.2% is upper class students. In the group with a mean age (SS) of 21.3 (±1.6) and the mean scores of participants are 131.3 (±17.5) for HLSB-II. According to the logistic regression analysis, compare to lower classes, upper classes (OR=2.02; p=0.02) and compare to never smokers, current and former smokers (OR=2.20; p=0.02) were insufficient in stress management. Similarly, compare to men, women (OR=3.57 p<0.01) and compare to lifetime abstainer, current and former alcohol drinkers (OR=2.62; p<0.01) were insufficient in physical activity. In the interpersonal subscale, as the relationship with school friends increase, the score from this subscale also increase (OR=0.85; p=0.02). Conclusion: It is found that there is a correlation between some subscales of the students' scale of the HLSB II scale and upper classes, smoking, alcohol using, school relationships and female gender.
