Considering the widespread prevalence of smoking behavior among teenagers, it is necessary and important to know the reasons for its tendency.

For sampling, 20 educational centers were selected from 79 educational centers by stratified random sampling method which 750 students from 956 of them of them participated voluntarily. Among the sample size, information was collected using a questionnaire tool, and this population was reduced to 700 people after collecting the data and removing the incomplete questions.
