Students, who are not interested in their educational field, don't have sufficient motivation for proper study in their fields. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dissatisfaction with educational field in the class silence behavior.
Instrument & Methods: In this descriptive research in 2014-15 academic year, 382 students of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences of Yazd City, Iran, were selected by stratified random sampling method. A questionnaire with 24 questions was used to measure the class silence and dissatisfaction with educational field. Data were analyzed in SPSS 16 software by Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis and Linear regression tests.
