The students had a positive attitude toward their field of study. There wasn’t any significant relationship between age and semester and, attitude toward the field of study (p>0.05). But there was a significant relationship between sex and attitude toward the field of study (p=0.01). Seniors and females had more positive attitude toward their field of study.
